Teaching: getting to the end

Teaching: getting to the end

This blog post was inspired by a blog post by another teacher I know.

I'm getting to the end of my training now and nearly about to get out into the real world again (boy have I missed it). In less than 2 and a half months I will be finished with my teacher training and hopefully having passed, getting ready for my NQT year.

I'm enjoying it all again, maybe because I'm better at it where I am now, or maybe it's just the incredible amount of support I've been getting the last few days (my previous mentor is the one to thank for hardening me up and helping me get here). I'm more confident that I can teach as well and my last crit shows that since I had it last Tuesday and I think it was a really great lesson. Since then my lessons have been going well and I'm being reflective where I can to ensure that I improve where I need to.

Energy-wise I'm okay during the day but not finding the time at home to get the work I want to get done actually done. Though I am feeling it better here since most nights I don't feel I need to do any more work as I've done it all during the day.

I will report back to my followers in a few week's time!
