I enjoyed getting to help children from very underprivileged backgrounds and use my interest in psychology to gain insight into their behaviors and behavioral issues that arise from trauma.
What I wish was different
That it could be more ongoing so I did not have to leave the children.
Advice

What I wish was different
I wish there had been more organization for intern projects.

If you have extra work you can bring with you, do. But also get as involved with the company as you can. The employees are interesting, experienced, and great resources.
