This morning, I asked H if he could get me some anxiety medication the next time he is in Mexico.
I was only halfway joking.
It seems that I have been a nervous Nelly (again) about school. If you're a longtime follower, you will know that this is a recurring trend, unfortunately, in my professional life.
This is my first year at this school, so it makes sense. I know it is all in my head. And I know I could just say "stop caring", but I can't.
I am looking for some inspiration in my life.
I know I have the right job, so I will make a list for myself for some reassurance.
WHY I AM AWESOME AS A TEACHER
1. I am more empathetic than anyone else.
2. I care about my plans, which shows I care about my students.
3. I am giving and kind to students and faculty.
4. I give people my 100% attention when I am communicating with them.
5. I am willing to learn, and OK with change.
Ah, yes. I do feel slightly better. Now on to some copies!!

Oy. Hope the anxiety lessens as the school year progresses. I am sure you are an awesome teacher and your students are lucky to be able to learn from you. Feel confident!
