Tuesday-Day 2

Today was somewhat uneventful because instead of doing anything that has to do with my project, I had to take the AP French exam (which I suppose has something to do with my project since it's in French). It started at noon, so I slept in a little bit before heading off early to school. After four and a half grueling hours, it was done-and I'm pretty proud. In order to make this post more interesting, I will try to think of links that this has to my project.
1. If I do decide to teach French, I will be aiding students in their journey towards the AP exam, which for them could be a positive or a negative thing (depending on how they do).
2. I'm fully aware that teaching requires much patience and levelness of head, just as was required of me today during my examination.
3. After spending countless consecutive hours being exposed to a foreign language, I usually cannot think straight and end up having to translate my thoughts from said language to English-which has been plaguing my mind all afternoon and into the evening (The connection is that this could be my life every day if I choose to spend countless hours teaching said foreign language).

That is all I can think of for right now. Especially because my brain has not worked properly since my exam. However, I am really looking forward to tomorrow. I will be sitting in Mikaela's French classes at Proctor and helping in any way that I can. I am hoping that soon I will be able to plan and teach a lesson of my own. My project is really just beginning, and I'm excited to get started!
