It’s hard to circulate the room when there’s no room because the class is so packed.

I graduated four years ago, but most of my teachers taught sitting down, unless if they were writing on the board or managing their PowerPoint from the laptop which was on top of a rolling cart

If they sleep, they “miss out.” But if they do that during a walk-through, or while you are being evaluated, you get dinged 🙄

They didn’t have to circulate because we feared them and had freaking respect for adults and we were scared of what our parents would do if….
