"I Believe in You"

The above quote was the end of a conversation with  my boss. I'm still uncertain of what happened. All I know is that my boss pulled me in to his office and asked me if I needed any sport material for teaching. I blankly stared at him not understanding what he meant... I still have problems understanding him sometimes (now I realize he was trying to say support materials). This would help me immensely in my teaching. At first I wondered why he hadn't offered earlier.. I have been teaching for three months and this is the first mention of it. But after he made the comment "I believe in you"  I realized that perhaps he didn't offer before because he didn't want to waste money on me if I was a bad teacher. But it just so happens that the kids love me more every day and I have had a spike in enrollment in my special 50 minute classes. This is good news...however I do feel more pressure to actually make sure that the kids are learning better conversation skills as well as having fun... Being good at your job can be such a headache sometimes ;)

just keep teaching them words like decapitated and they will continue to enjoy your classes. though why does instinct tell me you'll talk about NFL and the Super Bowl a lot this week with your Colts making it.
