I Survived: Part 1

You may call me Professor.  Okay. So I'm not "really" a professor, but my students call me professor. And it feels pretty cool.  I teach 2 undergraduate classes while I'm getting my master's degree. Pretty cool right? I get to practice being a real life professor. (That's one reason I want my Master's).  I did tell my students I was a graduate student, but some still call me professor. And I'm okay with that.  :)   

Here's some things I learned from my first day teaching.

  1.  7:30am class is even earlier if you're the instructor and live 30 min from campus
  2.  You get a better parking spot if you have a 7:30 am class
  3.  I like the husband making breakfast (So sweet of him)
  4.  It's a great idea to pack your lunch the night before
  5.  Copy extra syllabi. You may run out.
  6.  Chalk is yuck! It gets all over your hands. 
  7.  College students are just as quite when I teach as my Young Women
  8.  Plan more than you expect to teach
All in all it was a good day.  I got a lot prepared and I'm excited for the year!
