Good luck on the interview.
I sure hope you get that. 
How many children will you be responsible for?  Is this an internship, or a
job?
If it's an internship, they probably shouldn't have you out there on your
own.  If it's too many people, they you should have some help.  You
shouldn't have bu so many per person, clients to a professional anyways. I'm
just giving you food for thought.

Hi everyone,
I am going for an interview tomorrow afternoon for a youth worker position
for a social skills program for youth ages 12-17 to work on their social
skills and improve their confidence. I believe that one of the activities
done by the youth workers is to take the group on outings to practice their
social skills. Has anyone done this before and what strategies did you use?
I am concerned about this task and feel that the employer might want to know
how I would manage this type of task. Any advice would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Amanda

Amanda
