What advice would you give?

My advice for next semester's interns is to not generalize the population that you are serving, because you find out quickly that even with the population you work with there are many differences between clients. The other piece of advise I have is to ask questions of your supervisors/program coordinators. You learn better and quicker when you ask questions.
