Catherine Anderson

Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.

Patience and flexibility: An example. Paris came into Afterschool Buddies in a bad mood sniffling and snapping. I asked if she wanted to talk about it,”No!”

Do you want to color? “No!”

Do you want me to read to you? “No.”

Is there anything you would like to do? “No.”

So I guess I will go over here and help Audrey. “No. She doesn’t like me. She said I am crazy.”

Wow! What did you say? “I said she was stupid. And then Audrey started to cry. But I didn’t cry. “

It sounds like you were pretty brave. “Well I got in trouble for making her cry. She cries about everything.”

Do you ever feel like crying? “Yes.”

When was that? “Can I color on the white board?”

Tell me more about wanting to cry.”I went to court this morning and they said I can’t go back with my mommy.”

Is that why you were acting up today? “Yeah, I guess so. I’m going to draw you up here.”

First, get your math homework and when it’s done you can finish your drawing.
