My interview today
So I got a call at 10:00 setting up an interview for 3:30. I went into my old job to help out then went to the interview. It didn't start till 4:15 and lasted until 5:30 with the assistant principal. All sorts of questions I didn't know how to answer haha. I suck at interviews.
Anyway, I sat for a little bit and then met with the principal for another almost hour.
Essentially, I'm hired on a probationary period. The school starts tomorrow and they'll watch me teach. I'll be a sub tomorrow and the rest of the week. I don't mind subbing - if I have lesson plans! There are going to be NONE of those and essentially I'll have to fly by the seat of my pants. I don't even know what I have to teach! But besides all that, I have to do a demo lesson tomorrow, Thursday, and Friday for 5th grade math. I have no idea what the standards are. I haven't taught before. I have to do it TOMORROW and they'll watch me. They'll let me know on the weekend if I'm hired or not.
This is CRAZY. I'm petrified about coming up with lesson plans and about being watched (ugh I hate being watched). And school will already have been in session before I get my actual class. That means no time to plan, set up, anything. But it's a JOB.
So yeah, guess who is not getting any sleep tonight? This girl.
So thank you to all those that commented on my last entry (you mean the WORLD), but it might not matter if this pans out. This is an intense school, it's a charter school and has crazy high demands and standards (be in by 7:00 till 4:30). I just hope all goes well.
