11. I have faith

and I know you will be great. It’s scary to stand before a large group to speak. When I was teaching, Back to School Night, where the parents come in and listen to you speak for 20 minutes gave me actual nightmares. Nothing ever went badly, but fear is quite a load to carry. Remember: They aren’t judging you. They are being taught by you. I told myself this year after year. It never fully helped, because the parents in that school were often anti-school and anti-teacher. But your group won’t be anti-anything and I’ll bet they will really proud you. You are going to be great!
