No words can explain how deeply people want to connect with each other. How much pain they will suffer trying to be accepted, to be valued and to be loved. The yearning to be wanted is probably the most trauma that some individuals will ever inflict up on themselves. No matter race, colour, creed, sexual orientation, religion, culture, gender, age or any other factor, what everyone wants is to belong, to connect, to be loved. It is so easy to reach out to someone yet, for some it is the most difficult thing to find someone to connect to. Reach out to those you meet in your daily march. You just never know whose life you might touch, what spark, even unknowingly, you may make.

Week 1 of 7 - Final Teaching Practice

To sum it up: I AM SO tired, but very pleased to say my associates are amazing, well educated, qualified and very friendly. Started teaching on day 2 and although I thought it went well my Associate wanted less teacher time and more student time, so that is what I am working on and it seem to be going well. He taught me about SOLO and i love it!

Last period Friday I took my final class for the week and they were unfocused, disruptive and generally non-compliant. I had to close the PPP I was using and direct them to their books. At the end of the lesson I was sure I would be in for a dressing down, but no!!!!! Contrary to how i felt my Associate said that if that is representative of the worst class I ever have it is good. Well, let's see if I can keep this up for another 6 weeks. Its amazing. We'll see!
