The reading was interesting and also very useful. I thought the way in which the readings talks in detail about how academic skills contribute to effectiveness of the being a counselor. More importantly , it gives you a very detail explanation on how to go about developing these four basic skills, reading , research, writing, and presenting. Furthermore, I liked how it talked about developing critical reflection skills. Developing Critical refection skills is a process that can only be developed if one is investing the time and applying it to practice.
