    English Teacher Shop Girl*

    Well, I survived!! Today was my very first day teaching high school and it went really well!! But that’s getting ahead of myself. Let’s go back a bit… I am currently completing one of my practicums and am on placement for 3 weeks. I’ve spent the last week observing classes in a local high school and it has been great. My associate teacher thinks outside the box and doesn’t want to create a “mini-me” version of himself and has let me observe a variety of classes with other teachers—which is pretty unusual for this placement.
