This must be my agree with Chris week, because I have to agree with this,
too. (Actually, I don't often disagree with Chris - we mezzos have to stick
together or something like that!). Seriously, I felt exactly the same way
when I began practice teaching in college and then teaching for real in grad
school. What happened to me was that as I taught more and more, I learned
not only what I do know, but I also learned to teach. I had a friend who
studied with me for a while when I was first starting out, then studied with
me for a while again three or four years later and she commented on the
improvement in my teaching. I hadn't thought of it before, but once she
said it, I realized how much more I knew then about teaching than I had when
I started. And it just keeps going on. So be a little easier on yourself
and realize that you have to learn to teach, too.

I was like that in my 20s - it took until a few years ago for me to realize
that I DID know what I was talking about. Perhaps that is because there was
a huge gap between finishing my undergrad and starting my masters. You're
only an undergrad, aren't you Molly?
