ready for teaching advice from a former intern? crystalrene September 1 2005, 14:26:22 UTC
okay, here goes the advice:

-non teacher friends will generally only pretend to listen to the stories you have about the kids

-sleep as much as possible (seriously, pretend you're an old lady and go to bed at 10)

-don't fall too far behind in the MSU stuff - you still have to do it even when you're 100% engrossed in the classroom

-find a reason to laugh at yourself every day or else you'll go crazy

-remember that you're doing what you love to get through the rough days, and that it's okay to cry

-the end of april will be here before you know it!

you'll be fine, and you'll make it!! i'll like the kid stories, even if other people don't.
