ok so I’m not fluent in teacher-attitude yet, and my low-key sort of deal seems not to be cutting it. i need to look like i have authority, because my personality does not command it. i can either grow a beard or wear a tie, but needless to say it is neither natural or comfortable.
nor am i decisive! how is that for feeling safe in my classroom? you never know when i’m going to say what. i am slowly finding out my middle-school insecurities are far from gone. omigosh
do they like me? fuuuuuck
