It was quite the experience to go back to being a student after years of being a teacher. I don't know that my writing will be any improved, but I know my teaching will be. I have a whole new appreciation for giving clear directions about expectations and appropriate feedback on assignments.Belladonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13704410443745252997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19425334.post-87711780309074016402007-01-11T17:23:00.000-07:002007-01-11T17:23:00.000-07:00yuck!!!!!

Yet, they feel a highly qualified and experienced teacher such as yourself needs more on paper? <br /><br />Good luck on the class! I found that sometimes the subjects that I hated the most ended up being my best classes.Lynannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02416883491055528952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19425334.post-90403852495150485192007-01-09T20:28:00.000-07:002007-01-09T20:28:00.000-07:00Good luck! :) You'll do marvelously!Good luck! :) You'll do marvelously!Dawnyelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07662908368358604305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19425334.post-53655421118529492192007-01-09T18:34:00.000-07:002007-01-09T18:34:00.000-07:00Hi,

When I moved to CA I had passed the NTA (National Teachers Exam) and was one credit shy of having my masters +30. Not good enough for CA. I have spent the last 3 years taking tons of classes and many tests. The worst was the CSET exam. I literally sat down at 7am and did not get back up until 3pm. No lunch. No pee. No snack. No stretch. Just test. I could hardly stand I was so stiff! When I got to my car I burst into tears I was that worn out. And the money spent on all these classes and tests dont get me started! I still have one class to take...computers 2. Did I mention that my masters is in Ed tech? Doesn't matter! Good luck with the online class!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04764437077561164662noreply@blogger.com
