Self Doubt: Who Said Teachers Can't Have It As Well? | WIML

Описание: It's always difficult to understand that in order to become good at something, you have to continue doing that over and over and over again, and maybe then, after you have done it hundreds, if not thousands of times, you might be good at it then. With that being said, my students and even I, at times, have a difficult time understanding and seeing that.

This week, my students are dealing with the fact that they don't consider themselves good at writing, while I am dealing with not feeling like a good enough teacher to give feedback on their papers.

What a small world.

On that note... come with me to experience what is going through my head as I grade student papers! (:

So come have a little bit of fun with me as we show you a week in my life as a PhD Student.

Hopefully you enjoy the video!

If you are new here!
Hello! My name is Manuel Gonzalez.

I'm a graduate of San Diego State University (SDSU), and I am currently a PhD Student at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan.

From an MFA in Creative Writing to a PhD in Rhetoric & Writing, this entire channel is essentially a memory bank where I film myself navigating the ups, downs, and in-betweens of being a student, professor, adjunct, and every other role you can think of. These videos are meant to show you a week in the life of a graduate student and give you a behind-the-scenes look into everything PhD-related.

Hopefully, you enjoy the content and decide to stay for the experience in the program with me over the next four years!

A friend suggested that I create an Amazon Wishlist to celebrate my move to Detroit and the start of my PhD at Wayne State. She said everyone deserves a little help and encouragement for such an accomplishment.

So I did.
Everything on the list is an essential item for someone moving into a new place, celebrating a new milestone, or just things that would help me out. If you would like to help out or appreciate the content, that's one way to support.

No obligation whatsoever.
Thank you!
