It's Natural
By Anonymous

What you are feeling is natural, but it will either get better or worse during your student teaching. I'm sorry, but it's true. During your ST, you will find out if you were really cut out for this job or not. I am sure
you will do fine, but there are people who have changed careers after ST because they realized all the hard work it entails. My biggest piece of advice is to stay positive and committed to your profession. Do everything you can during your ST and you will be fine. Your cooperating teacher will guide you through the process and always ask for feedback, both positive and negative. Try

not to worry about it so much now, just think how you will feel when you have your own classroom, that's where the anxiety really kicks in. :-) Good Luck and I wish you all the best!!!
