What do I still need to work on more?
It is easy to come up with a laundry list of things I need to work on as a future teacher--especially being surrounded by experienced and innovative teachers like Andy. I feel overwhelmed at times with the amount of ideas I am learning in a day, and it is sometimes frustrating to think about everything that I still need to work on.
A few larger concepts that I feel I need to work on involve working with students. I feel like I haven't been around this age group enough to really understand how I need to help them through projects or problems that arise. Along these lines, I feel that I sometimes get caught up in little issues rather than focusing on the larger goal.
Some days I feel like I'm doing really well, and I connect with students, others, I feel like I can't reach them.
