The first week in a half was quite rough, because I was new
at this and didn’t know what exactly I was supposed to be doing. I just kind of
observed the class and how Mr. Jager was teaching the class, as well as how he
handled things when kids weren’t paying attention or following the rules. I
slowly got the hang of things, thank god, or I’d still be pretty lost on what
to do. I was also pretty nervous, I mean I’m a new person in the class, and I
also look like I could be a new student because I’m that short. I feel like it’s
difficult for them to see me as an authority figure because I am short, but it
also doesn’t help that I tried to be more of a friend at first than someone
with authority. Hmm. Wonder if there’s a way I could fix that? I feel more
comfortable now because I’m not as new as I was at the beginning of the year,
though I’m still new at this whole teacher cadet thing. I hope you were able to
follow, I kind of jumped around a little bit. Sorry about that.
Reflecting.
