Internship Programme 


Feedback from Internship and Outreach Students


Name of the Student : Ayesha Ehsan (M.A ELT - 3rd Semester)    


Email : ayeshaehsan20@gmail.com



Name of the Organisation where you worked : Al Barkaat Institute of Education.  


Describe in 20 words the Organisation that you worked in : Al - Barkaat Institute of

Education is a Government approved Minority Institution, duly recognized by the N.C.T.E. Jaipur and affiliated to Dr. B.R.Ambedkar University, Agra which runs the B.Ed. Program. It is situated on Anoopshahr Road, Post C.D.F, Near Jamalpur Railway Crossing, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, India. 


Describe your experience of this work in 50 words including at least 5 good things : My        experience at Al-Barkaat Institute was really amazing. In the internship programme, I along with my fellow interns took different skills of language and taught them to the students of B. Ed. It was a 21 day programme (2nd December 2020- 22nd December, 2020). I took 4 classes - 2 classes individually and 2 classes combined with my fellow interns. I learnt many things like :

a)      How to deal with students online as well as offline and also how to continuously monitor them. 

b)      I learnt to work and overcome my stage fright. 

c)      I learnt how to manage and organize events. 

d)      I learnt to work in coordination with my fellow interns. (How to take class without any chaos, devise activities together and to give each other equal time to interact with students). 

e)      I also managed to take classes individually, create links for the classes and devise activities based on topics and events. 

f)       I learnt and worked hard on how to record and make videos with clarity and upload them on YouTube.

g)      I gained confidence while dealing with students since I used to be under confident. 

h)      I learnt how to practically apply what I have learnt in my class. (E.g Task components, designing and giving topics for syllabus). 

i)       I also learnt to maintain and record the important documents related to my internship program. (Like it is done in Portfolio). 


In short, working at such a renowned Institution was actually worth it. 


How is this going to benefit you in the future? This experience is surely going to benefit me in future since I have always wanted to become a teacher. This internship has helped me in many ways. It has helped me to clear my doubts regarding different topics, to deal with class, manage time and also organize extra curricular programmes. Apart from this, I have gained confidence and learnt to interact with learners smoothly which is surely something required for a teacher.


Do you like this new component of the newly introduced syllabi? Why? Definitely, yes. I       liked this new component which is introduced here. Because this will help us, the students to discover themselves, to work on themselves, to learn and get exposure to different things. This will definitely help them in building confidence and will make them work hard. It can be an impetus for a positive change in students. 


Did you get sufficient help from the Department? The Department of English was very            helpful and supportive. When we were offered this internship, our teachers especially our Chairman and the co-ordinators were very much satisfied and gave a yes to this internship. They were quite considerate and had instilled their trust in us. 



What challenges did you come across? The challenge was to find the internship programme       during the Pandemic. This is the reason it got a little difficult to find the internship programme too early and then I had to manage it alongside (MA ELT) presentations and assignments.  Also, it was not a work from home internship. Rather I had to go to Al-Barkaat to take my classes. Apart from going there to take the classes, I also had to go there to discuss the time table and syllabus. Managing to do my assignments and presentations (of M.A- ELT) alongside these things was not an easy task but it went quite well.


Do you have any suggestions to improve the programme? Yes. Even though the department    was quite considerate, I believe the students must have been given more clarity regarding the outreach and internship programmes. There should have been a session regarding these programmes in the starting of our 3rd semester (August, 2020) and then there would have been regular such sessions to check the progress of students since this was something introduced for the first time.

Name: SAUMA AFREEN

ENROLLMENT NO.: GI2189

CLASSROLL NO. 19ENM24

Email: afreensauma@gmail.com



Name of the Organization that I worked at:

Pocketful of Sunshine India

Describe in 20 words the organization that you worked at.

An organization focused on providing a safe environment for children, with special focus on underprivileged children of day laborers and housemaids etc., in Delhi. Their aim is to prevent children falling prey to various kinds of exploitation.

Describe your experience of this work in 50 words including at least 5 good things.

It was my first real time working experience so naturally work ethics was one. Other than that,

  1. This gave me an opportunity to reflect on the conditions of an underprivileged lot of our society, learning about things they cannot access.

  2. I definitely brushed upon my writing skills, a slight difference to my usual creative writing.

  3. Realtime application of the writing techniques I learned during coursework and other programs that I undertook over years.

  4. Deadlines, formal correspondence, maintaining a balance between work and my studies.

  5. An experience worthwhile and also an improvement in my researching skills.

How this is going to benefit you in future?

Apart from reflecting nicely on my CV, this was a good experience for me as I have always been passionate regarding these sensitive issues that our society has been struggling since forever. Writing about them is perhaps a very small thing, but it is a step in my drive to be a bit helpful to those in need by first educating myself on the related issues and then using the knowledge to help them out.

Do you like this component of the newly introduced syllabi? Why?

Yes, this indeed is a great initiative taken by the department and I would like to thank the department for this opportunity. I quite liked doing what I did as it was something practical and beneficial.

Did you get sufficient help from the Department?

For this particular internship that I applied for, I did not need any approval or such thing from the Department. However, the Department did help others for the same.

What challenges did you come across?

The guidelines and specifications for both Ability Enhancement Programme and Dissertation Project were informed to us quite late into the semester. Both the programmes were quite intensive and required students to prepare ahead of time. Particularly for Internship, applying and securing an internship during a pandemic where remote working was the only available option, was a tough job. Another thing was simultaneously attending classes and for preparing for continuous assessments.

Do you have any suggestions to improve the programme?

For this, I believe briefing students a semester prior would help in a better facilitation of this great initiative so that students could apply and work in person during the summer break. Since this was an unusual past year, most of the things were moved online and some of us were able to attend virtual classes and work offline. But this perhaps might revert back again by next year.

Also, I would like to suggest the Department to connect and collaborate with a few institutions locally and for online work opportunities as a safe option for those who could not secure internships on time.

Describe your experience of this work in 50 words including at least 5 good things.

The Paid Internship for Content Writing with the Pro-Orator Academy was a writing as well as learning experience for a duration of 2 months. It was beneficial in many ways-

  1. Improved my content writing skills

  2. Improved Language skills

  3. Enhanced vocabulary

  4. Improved Multi-tasking skills

  5. Helped in building CV résumé

The Unpaid Internship for a Student Campus Ambassador with the Kalam Foundation was a training into practical application and learning experience with management and organization of events. It was beneficial in the following ways-

  1. Helped to contribute to the society

  2. To become a part of some noble work by providing financial support and health benefits to the needy

  3. Helped in building a strong CV

  4. Helped to gain experience in conducting Online festivals

  5. Helped with managerial skills

How this is going to benefit you in future?

Both the Internships were of a different nature of work, from Content Writing to student Campus Ambassador, which were very beneficial in not one, but many aspects. These Internship experiences are going to benefit a lot to me in future, thereby increasing my job prospects other than providing me a plethora of opportunities in the particular area of work. The Internships proved to be a good experience gaining platform for me and would also help me into enhancing my knowledge and Communication skills.

Do you like this new component of the newly introduced syllabi? Why?

This new component recently induced was a very impressive boundary pushing move to the overall teaching and  learning system. Also, it was quite receptive among all the students for the major reason being- personality and CV development of students with experience and a practical approach to applied educational skills.

Did you get sufficient help from the Department?

The Department was very cooperative and helpful in all possible ways along with proper guidance and leniency on deadlines from the teachers and course coordinators.

What challenges you came across?

There were quite a few challenges-

  1. Tight Academic Schedule with assessments and online classes

  2. Time Constraints

  3. Regular Internship Commitments that demanded regular research and writing

  4. Managing Internship work and studies along with Preparation for Exams

Do you have any suggestions to improve the programme?

Although the Programme is quite acceptable for practical reasons but it would be highly appreciated if the students be made aware and provided a prior information about any such programme, for the reason that getting enrolled in any Internship requires prior application and scrutiny time, which some students found very difficult-to get enrolled into the Internships.

The mentees will write a hypothesis, rationale, and objectives to present the findings of Fieldwork in the assignment, to be submitted by 1st December 2021.



Mentees will (in the First Two Weeks)

  • Consult the mentors without any failure with the first week
  • Identify target respondents/subjects
  • State objectives; prepare rationale and research questions
  • Prepare an initial Google form for entering/inviting particulars of target learners’ learning objectives and initial responses to brainstorming questions (teamwork)
  • Make a spreadsheet with the details of the target learners, to be shared among the team members

(3rd and 4th weeks)

  • Prepare a literature review related to the topic (individual work)
