I've spent the last month taking the steps towards becoming a teacher. I've filed for my teaching liscense, written my resume and cover letter, self promoted at a job fair, and landed my first interview. I'm compleatly confliced about the interview. I DO NOT want to work at the school I interviewed at, but I wish I was tough enough to be the right person for the job. The interview went pretty good. I was honest with my answers. I admitted my weaknesses, said 'I don't know' when I didn't know, and clearly talked my way through my beliefs about education. I even had a half dozen moments where my philosophy clicked with the interview team. In theory I would fit with what the school wants, but in reality, I would get eaten alive each day by the students. I hope that I will have more requests for interviews in the coming weeks. Fingers crossed.
While I wait for more phone calls, I'll head out to weed the garden and plant some more flowers.
