3 roles are: The educative role (teaching), The supportive role (examining and managing the effects of training upon the intern), and the managerial role (ensuring that work practices are appropriate and meet standards).

Feedback and clear objectives are very valuable!

A good internship lasts 10-12 weeks to give the student a good idea what it's really like to work in that area.

Interships help student grow professionally and gain confidence in their skills.

Setting goals and objectives is important when instructing students. Make it a priority to get to know their names as well as correct pronounciations of their names.

Acting as a friend and role model, but not a pal to the students, and leading by example!
