Well this is reassuring that the 6 hours per week (3x 2 modules) I have been allocated is manageable if I am strict with myself! The trouble is that I'm going to have to do a lot of revison in order to teach the modules as I don't draw on the content in my most recent work! Did you receive much support from departmental staff, module leaders etc. when first starting out? As you can tell, I am more anxious about the teaching than my research!
I'm about to start a social sciences PhD and am required to lead 1st year undergraduate seminars. I haven't taught before and am nervous about how much I can cope with on top of starting the research. I was wondering what are your experiences of how many hours of teaching would be manageable per week on top of planning and marking? Thanks!
