lectures
So for a couple days now I have been entertaining the idea of lecturing for Software Architecture. The idea really freaks me out and I'm 100% nervous about standing in front of 50 students talking about anything. They each pay like $2000 to take the course so I would be responsible for $100,000 worth of education each month. Thats .. holy shit it's 5 million dollars each year. SA is the last course in the curriculum before final project which gives the students lots of smarts and certain expectations coming into my class.
I would be probably making almost twice per year compared to what I make as a lab instructor and I would be mostly doing the same things except now I also will have to speak for 4 hours straight a couple times a week. The idea of talking in front of these smart kids is daunting to say the least. Every one else seems to have a lot of confidence that I could do it without a problem. I wish I had the same level of confidence in myself.
Every job I have ever had up to now has been pretty much a slacker position where I didn't have a truckload of responsibility directly on my shoulders. I have always had co-workers to share the burden or ask questions if I was unsure about anything. But being head honcho .... *shiver*
Anyways I just needed to get that off my chest before I go to sleep.
Cheers.
