Things I am learning at this new job-
My political opinions are not all the same as the teachings of the school. Thankfully they aren't too different.
Not all of the coping techniques I used with my children are forgotten, just a little rusty and need to be polished.
I am rather out of touch with today's youth.
Still trying to decide if watching kids go through puberty is right for me.
I need more sleep.
Getting to help all the students is impossible. Trying to figure out which ones need the attention when, is also impossible.
Life isn't fair.
From somewhere in my mind I still am able to find and ask some of the right questions to help at least some of the students to get their work done. I was also able to stay calm when some seemed like they were borderline anxiety issue over getting the assignment done. This, helping students get through the day, is why this job may be good for me. It will serve as my happy for today. I want to say that these things are a small step in my being good at this job. What I know is that there will always be things to learn. No matter how much training someone has, or knowledge in their head, each person is an individual and must be treated as such.
Peace.
