I am not a very confident person. That is why I've been worried about standing up in front of a classroom and attempting to teach something. Not only do I lack confidence, but I have no teaching experience whatsoever. Recipe for disaster? I think so.
Eight lessons have passed, and I feel much better now. The little cuties actually enjoy hearing about my pathetic life. Talk about a confidence booster! When I tell them my dad was born in Japan and that my sister and brothers-in-law are all lawyers, they get so excited. And my niece! They think she is so "kawaii."
This job may just change me for the better.
PS - Funny classroom tidbit...one boy had a pencil case with the word "hemp" and a pot leaf on it. I wonder if he knows what that is...
