Despite being an actor in high school and going on the radio every week, I found it a little difficult to introduce myself, I was nervous that the students would judge me for my lesbian pride mask or my pronouns, I was worried I'd be misgendered or discriminated against, but so far it's all been good so far!

We have had scheduling challenges, so I have not been able to start fieldwork! The juniors are SAT testing and we all know how messy that week is... no class is normal, so we have not been able to go.

I am looking forward to contributing more in the class and interacting with students-- learning names, joining in conversations, etc.

I am looking forward to teaching my lessons with Tim, because it is a three-part lesson where the students are making an Instagram on a character! I'm excited because it includes a social media tool they have used before and I hope they will engage more with it because of that.

Never talked in front of a classroom of students, have to get over the awkwardness and not over think everything that I say! I am an awkward person and I have to accept that and move on
