Feeling ill :(

Ugh. Today is not a good day to be ill. Spending most of the day in bed doesn’t seem the ideal way to prepare for the first day of my intensive TESOL course! Just hope that I wake up tomorrow feeling competent to get to Milford station, catch the train to Woking, find my way from Woking station to the college - and then proceed to take in a day’s worth of intensive tuition, and probably do some homework when I get back!

I am excited about beginning. It’s been a year and a half since I last did any proper studying and I’m rather looking forward to packing my (multicoloured ) pens and folders, going off to college, and learning something new. I’m not sure quite what to expect really, although if lessons are anything like the pre-course open day then we’ll be sitting round in a circle without tables, discussing teaching, grammar, phonology, and whatever else we’re going to learn. Actually I think classes will be quite varied - we’ll have Russian lessons (for teaching methodology), and I think we’ll be starting to give our own lessons rather sooner than currently feels a good idea…

So I’m just praying that I’ll be well enough to take everything in tomorrow (today my ill-brain refused to remember my own email address - not a good sign!) and that the first day goes well.
