mothwing: The Crest of Cackle's Academy from The Worst Witch TV series. (Work)
Yesterday was the last day of my internship, and every teacher told me how well-prepared and how well-thought out my lessons and sequences were, and what a good teacher I am going to be.

They did tell me a few things they want me to keep an eye on (projecting more enthusiasm for tasks at hand instead of being as matter-of-factly as I am, giving more feed-back on student answers, explicitly telling students what's right and wrong about their answers instead of hoping for correction from the group because they're not that advanced, and talking more loudly).

The students all wished me good luck, and the feedback on the feedback sheets I had prepared for them was also very good. Their points of criticism were the same as those of the teacher, but on the whole, they seemed to be pretty happy with me as a teacher, and some of them were really sweet and enthusiastic about my lessons. Whee! Some were not, and I guess I know who they are and I can understand it. One girl was sitting at the back of the classroom and kept not paying attention because she was bored, and therefore she tended to miss the instructions - which is not really my fault, but I think I can understand why she'd not be happy about it.

I did get a few "bad marks" from them for my abilities as a speaker ("You talk to fast!" - "You have to repeat tasks and questions more often!") and some organisational stuff ("We really wouldn't have needed to watch those film scenes twice!"), but on the whole, they were happy with me, and the way they took the analysis of the short story in stride (one that we had dealt with in our A-Level courses, back when I had to do communication myself) and addressed every problem I had wanted them to address was really confidence-inspiring. I hope that they'll all get good grades in the test they have to write on communication after the holidays.

It's so sad that it's over, even though I'm also glad I don't have to worry about lesson plans for a while anymore, or how I am going to get into the room with the photocopier without a key on time. I'm really going to miss those guys, and I hope some of them are going to use the e-mail addy I gave them.

So.I am going to be a great teacher, only that I am not, because my university lost papers relevant for my application. Monday they're going to regret it.

And now for the report on my internship...

I Am A: Lawful Neutral Elf Ranger Druid

Alignment:
Lawful Neutral characters believe in the triumph of law and order above all else. It does not matter whether the leader is for good or evil; the leader will be followed, because the order they provide is the most important thing.

Race:
Elves are the eldest of all races, although they are generally a bit smaller than humans. They are generally well-cultured, artistic, easy-going, and because of their long lives, unconcerned with day-to-day activities that other races frequently concern themselves with. Elves are, effectively, immortal, although they can be killed. After a thousand years or so, they simply pass on to the next plane of existance.

Primary Class:
Rangers are the defenders of nature and the elements. They are in tune with the Earth, and work to keep it safe and healthy.

Secondary Class:
Druids are a special variety of Cleric who serves the Earth, and can call upon the power in the earth to accomplish their goals. They tend to be somewhat fanatical about defending natural settings.

Deity:
Silvanus is the True Neutral god of nature. He is also known as the Patron of Druids. His followers believe in the perfect balance of nature, and believe that nature's bounty is preferable to any other 'civilizing' method. They wear leather or metallic scale mail, constructed of leaf-shaped scales. Silvanus's symbol is an oak leaf.
