JRN+6

Self-Evaluation This semester has already started out as rewarding. I feel like I am finally at a place where I am finally doing something that not only directly applies to my future teaching experiences, but applies to what I love. I look at my current professors and think of how lucky I am to have built such great connections and mentors. I look at my organized binders and think about the importance of keeping a schedule and keeping up with the fast pace world of college. I finally feel like I can almost touch the stars and I couldn’t be more relieved. As far as this class specifically, I sincerely feel a sense of appreciation. I look around me at all of the great students and great professor and think this is what I needed at the brink of self-wonderment. I recently questioned going into secondary or English specifically, but the truth is, I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else. I want to make a difference and I want to do something great, this course and learning what I have thus far, will only enhance that desire. I look at my fellow classmates and see that I can learn from them just as much as I can learn from the books. Our classroom discussions are exciting and rewarding. I know that I will learn every time I walk into class and leave feeling confident about what we had done. The journals actually make me think, and who would have thunk it, I like it! I am so excited for what is to come and I cannot wait to add all of these experiences to my bank of educational knowledge.
