I came up with one of the first 12 questions which probably now to my memory was “What are your goals for the future?”. I voiced my concerns over asking her if she was married or have children because she might have gone through a bad divorce thus had her children taken away from her. Plus, I also told them with that I feel like that is not what you want to ask someone you don’t know never met. I also had the question of “Are you from Florida” changed to “Are you originally from Florida” because I have people asking me “where I am from” based on my skin color which is racist and when you put “originally” it sounds as if you are not meaning it from the standpoint of racism.

When we first went to interview Miss Diaz, I asked her two questions and wrote down what she said. For the second interview I came up with the question, “Do you like sports and if so what is your favorite sport & team?” During the second interview, I asked her eight to nine questions and wrote down what she said. Specifically, what questions I asked her, I don’t recall. I did her work at CF and family portion of the working outline. My group and I had a practice run which we all participated.

She did take part with all of us in our practice run for the symposium. Although she wasn’t with us on the first day we worked on this and attend the second interview, she kept a contact with all of us and to my standards did as much work as the rest of the

    For the interview process, the two people that I interviewed were Martha Millison and Cecilia Rivas. Martha Millison is a school counselor at Green-Wood Charter School in Philadelphia and Cecilia Rivas is a CUA chief management supervisor. When both Martha and Cecilia came and spoke to our class, I was so intrigued by what they said that I wanted to know more about their work field.

This includes saying, “I am going to the pool.” We never state which pool unless it is further away.…
