first 'official' observations

there's nothing official, of course (that would be too much to ask for at my workplace), but i've started the main new part of my job, which is observing the teachers at the school to check they're doing ok. so i had two observations tonight. observing in itself is not so hard, it's writing the report afterwards that's more difficult. first, you have to make sense of your notes! luckily, i already knew that, so they were quite detailed. nevertheless, there were still things that i couldn't remember what meant... but the hardest thing was when i had to make a choice out of 6 possibilities for each point observed: e.g. teacher talking time: exellent, very good, good, satisfactory, needs improvement, not satisfactory. sometimes, the right answer lies right in between two options and it feels like choosing above is being too nice while choosing below is being too strict. not easy...
