For the past ten years or so, my calendar has been oriented around a teaching schedule, a rather predictable pattern of preparation, teaching, grading, reflecting, and prepping again. I love the rhythm, the anticipation of something new every four months; new courses, new students, new ideas, new challenges. I teach because it is part of my work as a faculty member but it also fills me with as much anticipation as I had during my own childhood looking forward to school restarting every fall.
In this blog, I will share my grace notes, what fills my soul in teaching, things I am grateful for, things that have challenged me, and the mark my students leave on my soul every semester.
Happy teaching and go with grace!
