Is the light coming on?

At the start of the new term I felt the usual self-doubt that I know that lots of my colleagues feel. This time it was a little worse as we were starting a brand new degree. As the weeks unfold we are all still darting around not daring to pause for breath sometimes in case we start to think about what we are doing, as questioning it too much might cause even more doubt! But we keep going, each day learning new things about ourselves and our students. Some days it all feels right, like today, other days, you wonder why you bothered to even get up! But then you discover that something you said was remembered, repeated or simply enjoyed, and you know that you are on the right tracks. To all those out there in ITTE, the first term is always the worst, remember...we say it every year! And anyway it will soon be Christmas!
