Congratulations go out to Victor to be the first to successfully complete the TESOL practicum. I met with Victor and his sponsor teacher Jeanne last night and we had a very nice visit. Victor thoroughly enjoyed the practicum and from what his teacher told me, he did a great job. Most of all, he had a lot of fun.
I know sometimes it is hard and tiring, and teaching can take a lot out of you. In my years of teaching, I think the one thing I know very well is that the better I teach, the more draining it becomes. Teaching is such an amazing job because it allows us to give so much of ourselves. And when we see our students grow and improve, it makes it all worth it.
So when I saw how happy Victor was last night, I realized how good it felt to be a teacher. Great job Victor! We are all proud of you.
And to the remaining practicum students, I look forward to meeting with you in the next few weeks to hear your stories of life in the class. Hang in there everyone!
