Relief: teaching is still fun!

I started my multivariable calculus class today, and I was surprised and relieved by how much fun it was, despite being on Zoom! Whew. This is so common for me: I feel stressed when preparing a course, but then when teaching actually starts and I get to interact with the students, I love it. So relieved it still happened, even so far into the pandemic and the distance teaching that comes with it.

Also, I got a lovely email from a student afterwards, saying how much she appreciated that I took the time to answer questions and also made breathing room so that they could consider whether they had any questions. ♥
