I'm posting on behalf of my girlfriend, who is concerned that her level 1 fieldwork site at an elementary school is not giving her proper OT exposure. Her main reasoning is that she doesn't actually shadow/work with an OT and instead assists the teachers in the classrooms. I should also mention that this is a normal elementary school and most of the kids don't require any kind of OT help.
Is this normal for level 1 fieldwork? To me, it seems like she's paying $30,000+ to be a teaching assistant without learning how to be an OT.
