Quick Response: Chapter Nine

I liked this chapter because it is easy to be fearful of things going wrong. Everyone likes to feel in control. The section that struck me the greatest was to not take a bad day too hard. Everyone is every profession has a bad day, teachers are going to have them as well. Students are going to be a bad mood, have things going on in their lives, and somedays they just honestly will not want to be there. As a student myself I have those day. As a teacher, you are not allowed to have those days because it is your job and that is what you are trained and paid to do. Passionate teachers are passionate everyday. It reminds me of my job on the phones at MBNA, if I had a bad phone call I could not carry that on to the next call because it was not fair to the student. When you have a bad class or a bad day you cannot carry that on because it is not fair to your students who are there, commited to the class.
