before i went to the class, i have been ready and have done everything i should do/
but when i started my lesson, i felt terrible/ i could not remember what i have learned , what i have prepared , what i should tell and teach them/
to be honest, this course is boring and i don't know how to stir their interest about this course/
tonight i didn't behave well/ i felt terrible/ yeah, i got a job , but i didn't seize the opportunity/
how can i behave well/ what can i do more/ i want to be a good teacher

Its ok Cristina, that is just normal. You will get used to it in no time. I was in the academe for 3 long years teaching College Students. Although my situation is different from what you have experienced, i still can relate to it because i am just like you, preparing lessons for tomorrows teaching.
And since we have a guided list of the topics we have to discuss, sometimes, there are bright students who wants to advance the topic and go out of context too. But what i do is to tell them that they have to consider others too, some students are slow to catch the things you teach, and the tendency is you repeat the same lesson again.
I got used of the situation, and every weekends, i am so glad that i survived. I'm sure you will do better than that, don't get frustrated. Happy Mylotting!

thank you
i am so happy that you are a teacher too
and your experience can give me some ideas
maybe i haven't been used to teaching
on the other hand, i fear that my students say my class is boring and i don't have any teaching skills
you know, every time i saw them i felt my heart beat violently
i will try my best
believe me
