New Job!

[rdm_ation]

 Day 1 of new job - interesting. New place, new faces, new environment.

I can officially say I am a violin teacher! This makes me insanely happy. It really does. I love it. The kids were all so sweet (really big range of ages too) and most of them have been playing for at least a little while and getting decent sound out - so I don't have to start from scratch with many of them at all. Which is nice, I have to admit.
I also love how unthinkingly honest kids can be. There was one girl, who is 8, who essentially told me she liked me better than the last teacher she had. It was really cute - and I had to be careful just to say 'thank you' and not laugh.

It was a bit odd though, I spent half of the day sitting around because students didn't show up. I'm not complaining too much though, I'm pretty sure I still get paid... =D
Next time I'll bring my own practice to do though.

I'm now off to a coworker's 21st, actually, and I hope it'll be good. I'm fairly tired though so we'll see.

Hah, kids really are so honest! I remember cringing at some of the things they'd say. Congratulations on your first day! It sounds like it went well. :)
