It's week three at my placements and I'm finally adjusting to being a teacher. I have my schemes of work sorted and everything is going according to plan. It's still only four hours but, I'm still hoping for a miracle. After my class on Wednesday, my mentor give me the best news ever! She's offering me four more teaching hours in the other place where she teaches in Cardiff. I'll have to first check with my course tutor that it's alright. I ask my tutor and she says it's absolutely fine. To say I'm ecstatic would be an understatement.This is officially the best week ever. With my schemes of work done, session planning has been so easy.

My mentor has asked me to come to the new place for observation. It's only thirty minutes walk for where I leave, so I don't bother taking the car. I get to the place and it's massive! It's every ESOL teacher's dream. 10000 students and 500 more on the waiting list. The resource room is packed with materials like I've never seen before. I'm so grateful for this opportunity. It's absolutely priceless. I meet the students and they're just lovely. There are 15 students in my class, triple the ones at my other place my other placement. The miracle I've been praying for has finally happened and it's even better than I expected. So  with four more teaching hours I can now sleep well at night, right after a finish worrying about the amount of course work I have to do.
