As I await word from the B.Edu. gods, I'm doing what I love. ESL teaching. It's challenging. This time I have one-on-one classes with a lady who's a beginner. I'm very happy--and also, once more, in awe of my "powers" as a teacher.
Think about it. I feel like everything good and (un)holy that S ("S" for "student") learns about the English language will come from me. I better know my stuff.
Fortunately, I do.
Still, it's a lot of pressure. And in some ways, it gives me a buzz. At the beginning of my teaching career, it was hilarious. I kept shaking my head in awe, thinking "My God. I control these people's destiny..." :-P
Well not exactly that. But something pretty damned close.
