Week One

It's the end of my first week here in Dnipropetrovsk and while it could have gone better, it also could have gone worse.

At my first class I was so nervous that I was boring and dry. To top off boring and dry I also assigned way too much homework and misunderstood how the lessons were supposed to go. Fortunately, I had a better time teaching my next class and things went smoother. People had more fun, they laughed, and we got almost as far as the first class (they were two different classes that are the same level so they have the same material).

I am getting tons of help with how to be a teacher. I may not know how to be a teacher now, but by the end of the year I think I will be an alright teacher. I might even know English better to boot!
