My student-teaching experiences went better than I expected. During the fall term, for example, we had to teach twice in order to pass our internship course. Before my senior year, I was very afraid of being laughed at by the students during my internship. In fact, I hesitated to choose to study teaching just because of the internship..However, it didn't happen. In both of the teaching tasks, I barely stuttered (I took Dideral before them, though, maybe that's why). Plus, I volunteered to teach in place of my mentor teacher because she was too sick and her voice was gone. In this one, I didn't have much difficulty, either. My main fear is that the admission officers in the educational institutions might reject me because I stutter during the interview. Last month, I screwed up my first job interview because of both my stutter and lack of knowledge to answer. Video chat is a good idea! I will try it, thank you! I seem okay with the teenagers until now but don't know about young/adult learners.
