My Experiences in BHS class :)

           Assalamualaikum and hi everyone. I just want to tell about my experiences on the Basic Helping Skills class. For the first day, I felt very nervous as I was coming late to class because I do have a problem to register my course. At that time the other member of class already have an ice breaking session so I didn’t know much about them. For the first day when Dr Fa explain about the course outline, assignment and assesment that we have to do along the semester I felt nervous and scared as I think that it is quite hard at that time. I just think that im not a good helper as I don’t have many opportunities to do so before this. I also didn’t know much about myself because as I know I always think negative about myself and I think that im not that capable to do things. But now, after almost 3 months im as a student of counselling and study about helping skills, it helps me to develop my self esteem. It helps me to discover a postive vibes with the surroundings. For the next class, they are actually a lot of our member that register late are coming so we are having another session of ice breaking. We are ask to tell about our own strength. At that time I was wondering what are my strength actually. It just because before this I only think bad about myself. I think that I don’t have any strength. During that time also I listened to others strength and I realised that each and any person must have their own strength but they just not know what it is. I have a deep thought and think what kind of person are I am actually and what are the things that I good at. Within that I told in the class that I was a person that have an empathy. Dr Fa ask me to explain what are the differences of empathy and sympathy. I can explain well because I know what is that empathy is. Empathy is we feel like others feel and we understand them. At the class i learn so many good things, I have learn what is helping is, it is not a common helping that is same like we do to friends but helping in counselling term is helping in a profesional ways. I also knew that counselors have ethics that they have to follow, I learn about a myth of counselors, a things that we don’t have to think because it is just unrealistic beliefs. Last but not least, I have learn about helping session that is a structured way to start the session with clients, the skills and techniques that is used and a theory that we have learn that we used in the session.
