[ mood | anxious ]

When I was in college, I never understood the purposes of those teacher evaluations, rather than to determine their pay rate. Now I think I do. I should come with evaluation sheets. I'm never quite sure how I'm doing. It's not that I feel I'm doing anything grossly wrong, I just hear complaint after complaint. And whenever I suggest something it's usually answered with "No," which I'm not sure is just invalidation of my idea or simply inability to decide at that moment. I'm odd in that I'm not a very black-and-white person, but I want to know how I'm doing in black and white. Fill in the little circles so I can scan the sheet and grade myself, try to figure out what I should be doing better. Maybe my past wouldn't be littered with so many gross errors of judgement if I'd known I was scoring low at times. Then again, if I evaluated myself I'd always be in a low precentile. I'm hard on myself. And the worst part is, I'm not entirely sure why.
