The 2012 Student
A little bit before the beginning of the semester, I started to reflect on the fact that this is my 5th year teaching in some capacity. Two of those years I was doing double duty as both a Student and Teaching Assistant, but I’ll still count it. It has however, been three years since I’ve been a student at all, and a lot has changed in those three years. Being a student for the 2012-2013 school year is a lot different than being one for the 2006-2007 year (my last year as an undergrad), or even the 2008-2009 year (my last year as a grad student). Expectations change, and as a teacher, I need to learn how to adapt.
