Guess what? You're looking at the newest teacher at DanceWell Academy! Yup! That's right, I got a position teaching the 6-12 year olds... There are only 4 of them, and they are all cute Asians. Haha. I definitely have my work cut out for me. The director who hired me taught their first lesson and then had me there for the second after I contacted her about seeing if she had any openings. You can tell it has been a while since she has taught children - I will need to step in and remind them that even though it is a large room with no desks, I am still a teacher and they still need to listen. The class yesterday was more like baby sitting... the director had 4 "teachers" there which took the attention off of her and the kids were sitting on the floor or running in circles. Luckily, I have done this before and am very excited! The class meets once a week on Saturdays and come January, if she can get enough students enrolled, I will also teach a middle school class and a high school class back to back on Tuesday evenings. I am even more excited for these classes! I love how I don't lose time with Aaron and Audrey during the day but that I can still share my love of dance and help others grow through dance! It also gives Eric some one on one time with the kids which is a win for everyone!
