How interesting -- just like my situation!
I have never understood what attracted me to the teach-
ing/training profession. In fact, I was "thrown into it," "head
first!" But, once I got the hang of it, I was hooked. I've been
doing it for 15 years now and have enjoyed almost every day of
it.
And, I hope I can quell the PD symptoms to continue doing it
for a few more years.
I am not naturally a "people person" and I too get my renewal
from within. But, when I get up in front of that class and start
talking -- talking, that is, about a subject I know something
about -- my "Mr. Hyde" comes out and I become a different person.
Some of my students who have wanted to try to get to know me
outside of class have commented on the difference. Some have
tried to take advantage of it.
Well, I'm glad to know that there are other people who are, at
least, a bit like me out there. Thanks for writing and sharing
...
