COS INTERNSHIP: EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION AT NORTHSIDE ELEMENTARY
My Personal Definition:
In my opinion, professionalism is not just time and work ethic, grit and literacy, but also the amount of detail and finesse that you put into every single thing you do that is related in any way to what you are trying to be professional in. For example, If you want to be more professional in your schoolwork, not only must your grades go up, but you must also improve your hand writing, your punctuality, and your attitude.
