As my third semester teaching at the college level comes to a close, I’ve essentially gained a year of experience teaching. I have my Master’s degree, and I have experience — this basically means I’m becoming more desirable as a candidate for full-time instructor and lecturer positions. Between the two supervisors who took the chance on me solely due to my tutoring experience, I have been given the very best gift I could have received for my career path. While I may not be a PhD candidate yet, this academic year has treated me so well. I am eternally grateful that the universe finally aligned for me to follow my true path.
