That is a terrible schedule

Mine is similair  I have a 730 am class that I come in at 630 for that goes until 11  then I have another class from 6pm to 10 opm that I come in at 5 for  with 5 hours off in betweeen

All I do during the week is work and sleep

I find that from day one you should lay down the ground rules so everyone is on the same page What is expected from student and what they can expect from me no gum no excessive make up or jewlery no excessive peircings etc

I find it very helpful to use index cared and have a summary of the days topids written out This way when I enter a new term or semester I can pull out card for that day and use it as a reference

How do I deal with a student who interupts lectures and constantly has to tell us what she had for dinner last night?
