I primarily function in the guide role, but that fluctuates depending on the group of students I'm working with. For example, my weekend group is more mature and goal-oriented, while my weekday group is very young and easily distracted. I find myself working more as a Guide/buddy with the weekend group and Controller/guide with the weekday group. Needless to say, the weekday group has been challenging, but I hope they will develop emotional maturity and professionalism from my example and interactions with them.
