Thanks for this--I feel calmer after reading it. If there weren't such an emphasis on how the company is doing such a great thing, it wouldn't bother me so much. I just completely froze up in my pretend lesson. Maybe I should switch over to tutoring instead of doing the classes--then it would be easier to focus on the students as individuals.

Hopefully, though, I'll be able to quit--the Writing Program called today and I may get another class, which would mean I'd have no time to work for Kaplan. But if not--this will be very helpful.

I have another question for you. I read that you were thinking about going to Miami of Ohio. What did you think of their program during your application process, and are there really good reasons you found NOT to go there? I'm looking at applying to their comp/rhet program.
