The last class. We did a review of everything we had done together as a class. We tried something new as well.

My feelings were mixed as we concluded. I felt a bit sad, as I am unsure if I will ever get a chance to speak with my students ever again, but it was fantastic meeting them. I also felt relieved, as this was my final class I had to lesson plan for this semester. I will have to lesson plan again someday, but that will not be for at least until midway through 2021. I have my degree to complete prior.

Happily, the lesson itself was not a letdown. We concluded what we wanted to do. We did well, all things considered. It was unfortunate, due to Covid-19, that we could not teach in an actual classroom, but this format worked well enough.

Before the semester, I really was unsure if teaching was something I could do, let alone whether I actually wanted to do so. In all honesty, I feel I am comfortable with it. I can do it, and I can enjoy it. I am glad I signed up for this course, for the opportunity to earn the TESL certificate. I can step into a classroom now if need be, and do the work I am expected to do (if and when I earn my degree).
