Had a subbing gig today in Trig and Statistics. I could have actually done some teaching if I had known how to solve the problems in the lesson plans. Unfortunately, I had forgotten the law of cosines and sines.
I've been trying to brush up on my basic math skills because I registered for the GKT April 19th. I last took calculus back in 1976 so I'm pretty rusty. The other fun part of the GKT will be the hand written essay part. I have to get my head around the concept of not being able to go back and edit something once its written.

Subbing and Tutoring
The past few weeks, I've been getting some experience teaching. Been subbing at the local magnet school -- so far covered classes in Environmental studies, Marine Biology and Geometry. Also been tutoring some college kids in Music Theory. I have a curriculum prepared to submit to a private school for their after school enrichment program. If I get the job, it will be one hour a week of teaching music from March - June. Will see what happens.
Today I was called in to help a pianist rehearse a piece for her recital this Friday. It started out pretty shaky but after a couple of hours of drilling, there's hope. My help was appreciated by both the pianist and her teacher.
