I HAVE A DESK!

I AM GOING TO BE A PART-TIME LATIN TEACHER AT A CATHOLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!

I start tomorrow!  I am going to teach grades 6-8.  I just got the book today and a planning book so I can record all of my lessons.  It's a once a week position, so I teach all day on Wednesday and then I'm free to do other things during the week.

So these are the teacher-y things that I'm doing so far:

• working part-time at Sylvan Learning during after-school hours
• working on designing the curricula for a charter school for 7th and 8th grade Latin
• tutoring on the side - WyzAnt tutoring is giving me some opportunities
• working part-time at the elementary school teaching Latin to 6-8 grades

I'm also concurrently working on my certification and I am almost complete with the paperwork needed to be a substitute teacher.  I am registering for the 24-hour class requirement for the CEs.  In some way, I'm glad that I didn't get a full-time position after I already accepted the other part-time jobs.  I have a lot of good things that are very complementary (not "complimentary" - "Hi, nice dress you've got there") and are giving me experience that money can't buy. 

I'm excited!
