Blog 5 - Alexandria House

I haven't been to the Alexandria House but I am excited to go. The reason why I signed up at the end of the semester, because there was not available spaces to go on Saturdays. The only days I can go to the Alexandria House on Saturdays so my only choice was to wait at the end of the semester. In class, the announcement was that not everybody who signed up to go to the Alexandria House last Saturday didn't go and I could have went if I knew there was space to go. I can't wait to teach the ESL class on Saturdays, because it will be my first time working with ESL students. It will also be interesting to see how well my teaching skills are. If there are adjustments to the semester schedule, I will move up my days to go on Saturdays instead of the end of the semester. I will work with Mary because I am carpooling with her in my car. It works out because not only she is in my class but she lives in the same dorm as me so it will be easier for us to meet up and I won't have to drop her off at another place. I also feel anxious, because it will be my first time going but I'm sure I will be comfortable after the first hour. I am glad that I am not going by myself or else I will feel more anxious and nervous. The staff will make the setting comfortable for me so I am not worried of not being a "bad" teacher. I can't wait to be a helpful hand at Alexandria House!
