JA or Econ 349? That is the question.

So i have been reading a few of our class mates blogs and they all seem to think that going in front of the class is quite hard. I completely disagree. Teaching is teaching no matter if they are twenty somethings or in their teens. I personally like going in front of large groups and talking. Yes it can be nerve wracking at times but, I think teaching one class is extremely simple compared to six weeks of teaching JA. That said, I love doing my JA and I've became a better person, student, and future teacer because of it; I would not trade it for anything else.

I thought you gave a great presentation and a solid lesson plan for your third lesson plan and presentation. Good job.

You were born with a gift--the ability to talk and be calm in front of crowds of people. Use it to your advantage to reach out to your students when you become a teacher. Students will respond positively to someone they feel can reach out to them, rather than someone who seems so distant and out of touch.
