although i’m done schools, i think i’ll always be somewhat involved in the stress of finals.
i’ve made some major coin this past month tutoring. so much so that i’m thinking i should sit down and create a nice website sometime soon advertising..well…me (i’d include yoga and dance and such things, but math is the only thing with coin potential anytime soon).
I spend a large portion of my time consoling students, saying they won’t fail. I in fact have no idea if they’re going to fail or not. But I do know they are well prepared, and I can’t imagine anyone is more prepare than them.
i taught a 4 hour tutorial yesterday to students in rez yesterday. I am awful at first impressions, it’s almost guaranteed that someone will not like me after meeting me the first time. i have no intention on changing this, but one place where i must make amends is with one-time tutoring contracts. I’m only going to get to be with these students for 4 hours and thats it.
I did very well. and of course, after one of the hours we did a little bit of yoga. How could we not?
the rest of my students though, i have developed a relationship with them, more so than other years because each year i get better at teaching, and i can definitely see that in my students. so they have their final tomorrow. and i really want them to do well. maybe this is how teacher’s feel. maybe then this is how so many of my friends feel. i could almost imagine one getting lost in the sense of hoping someone else does well, like if you have 30 people that you’re hoping do well. A teacher could so easily get lost in that. It’s not bad, it’s interesting though.
but this is just relaxing talk, getting some junk off the top of my brain.
what else. in ballet i did a triple pirouette, just gorgeous, but this week is mediocre for the rest.
I haven’t taken a shower in 3 days, so i’m going to take a bath now. and I’m warming up chicken broth and will just drink it out of a cup because instead of filling it up with vegetables i thought it would be easier to have a peanut-butter sandwich.
blah.
i’m excited to actually write something in the next few days…then again this weekend is yoga teacher training. maybe ill wait till calgary to be less busy…
