Update

Where did I go?

In all honesty, I didn’t go anywhere – life simply became busy. I now have a full-time job to keep me going until I begin Summer Institute in June. When this is combined with preparation for my Teach First course and my other commitments, I find it harder to find the time to blog (we also had Christmas, an Engagement and New Year, so I’ve just been very busy.)

I do aim to post more actively on here in the coming months as Summer Institute approaches. It has been helpful for me to take a little time away from thinking about teaching – there is a lot of preparation still to do, but I must keep a balance to avoid burning out before starting my course later this year! I have enjoyed the past few months away from preparation as I adjusted to working full time – but it is time to become more actively involved in my preparation for my course.

I have recently begun a Mathematics SKE through TES, it is a part-time course that will take place over the next 16 weeks and starting this has really brought teaching to the fore-front of my mind and I am beginning to become more and more excited to start teaching this September!

Alongside my SKE, I have been more involved in reading about teaching and improving my curriculum knowledge and I am exited to post more often on here. I hope to post once a week as a minimum.

Hope all is well for you.
