Today was my first day of interning. I actually only went to meet my second placement teacher. I start my first placement tomorrow. I was really excited and a little nervous to meet my first cooperating teacher. I had so many questions about her. Would we have the same ideas and values? Would we have chemistry and get along? Will everyone like me? There are so many worries, but as soon as I walked in all of my worries were erased. Everyone was so nice and supportive. I got a lot of encouragement from my cooperating teacher and the school's counselor.
I couldn't have asked for things to go better. It helped that the teacher used to live next door to my husband's grandparents. I couldn't believe that because I know absolutely no one in the education system. It is the thing that scares me most about looking for a job. Seems like it is all about who you know, and I know no one. I guess that I will just have to let them get to know me and hopefully see that I am a good teacher.
I hope that I can make a good impression at both of my placements. It's time for bed to be rested and ready to go to my first placement in the morning. I have to leave early for my 4o minute drive!
