When it comes to professionalism and social skills I know how to act and what to say when it comes to working with students and potentially parents inside of a classroom. Before even entering this major I have been working at a summer camp back home, and one thing that we are required to do is work on our social skills with not only the kids, but with their parents. We are required to say the right things around the students meaning speaking in an academic language and ultimately think before you speak.

Not necessarily speaking about my confidence in talking in front of a classroom, but confidence in the sense of trusting my self and my ability to focus on evaluating myself other than others evaluating me. I am completely comfortable talking in front of a classroom and to other colleagues, but sometimes I lack in the confidence that I have for myself. I understand that making mistakes are apart of being human as the book mentions, but sometimes mistakes can bring my confidence a bit down, especially crucial mistakes. I struggle with the ability to constantly take risk, I tend to overthink things that or question my knowledge. Especially when sharing ideas or opinions I find myself thinking "is it even a good idea?" and I find myself worried about how others are evaluating me. Although i do not show it during presentations or when I am working with students, I sometimes think in the back of my head how my classmates or the students are evaluating me and that sometimes can interfere with my

Confidence is a major aspect to one 's life. Confidence gives people hope, it gives people a light to shine in the darkness. Confidence can be positive and negative. The positive aspect of confidence is it provides comfort and helps one face fears that may be hard to face.

Everyone has self-confidence, many people gain self-confidence from various things as well as lost confidence from various things. For many characters, isolation over time has changed their self-confidence. Sometimes isolation causes a character to be more self-confident over time, while other characters may lose self-confidence after prolonged periods of isolation.

Professionalism is an important conduct of individuals in every job, career, and even some students while attending school. I understand professionalism to be the art of carrying oneself, handling, and resolving situations with the utmost integrity, confidence, and respect. By embodying professionalism while at your job, career, profession, and while attending school in many circumstances, it allows for situations, conflicts, and relationships to be in favor of a positive outcome. Being professional is inclusive of the actions and behaviors of an individual. Actions will line up with what the individual says; showing integrity and trustworthiness to employers, customers, and those who are interacted with.
