yay! For one week I've been teaching at university. So far it's been a very pleasant, inspiring experience, and I think I'll be happy there. I'm teacher 1st and 2nd year students, mostly female, and even if I look dead young, (12y old according to some), I feel comfy enough. The hardest thing is that I have to combine this with the writing of a 500p thesis to be handed in in 3 years' time. But I think I can manage. I have less time to play videogames now, but the DS is a perfect compromise with its pick'n play games.

What's your speciality, and what are you teaching?

Oh, and congratulations.

I teach mostly linguistics and English to French students. And, Iggy, what earns me this sudden ageing? A few weeks ago I was only 12, don't you remember? I know I've been working hard lately, but still--

I taught at a university too-- of course, I wasn't a teacher of record, but I still taught two 'lab sections' of writing for mass media for two semesters. Most fulfilling work I've ever had.

I don't understand is it only "monitorat", or are you already a full teacher.

I once gave a basic japanese lesson to a bunch of geeks (some of them are fellow MMCafe members and/or lurkers), but I guess it´s not the same feeling...

I was a standard teacher for 5 years, then I passed a tough competitive exam ("l'agrégation") which now allows me to teach at university. What I am now is a mix between a full uni teacher and a student, as I'm just starting my doctorate degree. If my thesis receives decent acclaim from my peers, in 3 or 4 years, I'll be a full teacher. In actual fact, I am doing more or less the same classes as full teachers, except I am not supposed to do lectures (but I do teach some theory and methodology) and am only allowed to teach 1st and 2nd year students. The funny thing is that I have more classes on average than full teachers have (11 hours per week this semester, vs 5 for a sensei). So far the experience is a good one, but the students are far from proficient. It's been a huge let-down. Similarly I expected more active participation. The girls are desperately quiet, passive and shy. And the strategies I used when I was teaching military people won't work here.

By frequenting gay men for too long, I had nearly forgotten how effeminate girls can be. Can't they behave for X's sake!
