Anxieties

I am nervous about the workload and organizing things.  I am worried that I will lose students' papers or miss-enter their grades.  I am worried I'll read the wrong article and show up unprepared.  I feel confident in front of a class, and I think I will be able to give valuable feedback on their writing, but the mechanics of teaching intimidate me.  Every time I talk to someone from the English department I feel a little behind.  Did you get that form filled in? Make sure you send a copy. Did the file open because if not you need to download the new version, and do it by Thursday because the deadline is the 7th, and if we don't get it in you just won't have a class.  Even student emails can be intimidating (these young people are so good with technology).  I'm sure I get the hang of it by the end of the semester, just in time for them to start over with a newer, better system I'm sure.
