The thing is I really botched up the teaching. I had one student leave and the rest hardly ever turned up. Even though there were only 5 students to start with. I don't think I'll ever get a reference and to top it off it was at my old uni, so all my teachers may hear through the grape vine that I was crap. The thing it's so unfair, I worked hard to learn the subject on the weekends, taking up almost of all of it - without being paid for the extra hours. I still got very nervous and still came across unorganised, because even though I wrote class notes, sometimes I missed some important step in the exersise.

It's just unfortunate that I took on the job, because It was just way too hard for me and now it will be harder for me get a teaching job within my old uni.

Aggghhh not a good week. I'm so glad I've given it up, I will have this weekend free at least. I was getting so stressed not having anytime to myself.
