First Week Teaching

Well my first week of teaching is officially over. I must say I have learned so many things I can't begin to list them all. For one no one ever told me how busy first year teachers are. Another (that i was told but never believed) is that teaching is anything but a 8-4 job, more like a 7 in the morning to 8 at night job. It's not all bad though, I have definitely learned my share of positives as well. One thing being the individuality of the students. Each one being unique and able to teach me different things.
