While it is likely that you have been part of several supervisory relationships, choose only one in which you were the supervisee so that you can refer to that experience in this reflection.

- Provide the context of this supervisory experience, i.e., the type of workplace, your position/role at this place of employment; and who your supervisor was. You do not need to disclose the supervisor’s name, but please provide the job title/role they had and some detail on its relation to your position.
- Why did you choose this supervisory experience to reflect on? Why do you consider it a significant experience?
