Jody's home away from home experience...
Traveling from my home, Jamaica to Trinidad and Tobago to pursue my Masters in Social Work has been one of my most daring and exciting decisions. I met Dr. Huggins in my first year and she has been a leader, facilitator and confidant. She has such profound and intellectual perspectives that have exposed me to a grand view of Social Work and, introduced many concepts that I find crucially relevant to the practice. Her use of case studies and controversial videos are always fun, engaging, thought provoking and certainly illicit introspection and reflection. I especially enjoyed how current events in the Caribbean and world were woven into her lessons; I must admit, I learned much about Trinidad & Tobago and other parts of the world in her classes. Her interpersonal skills have made an invaluable impact on my experience, as, this journey has not been "a bed of roses" for me, but she has an incredible ability to zone in on individual students, connect with them on a deep level, and somehow, bring out their very best, as she did me. I am convinced, she is one of the best lecturers within the precincts of the UWI, St. Augustine Social Work Unit and she embodies this helping profession called Social Work!
