The midpoint of a teaching placement is where the gloss wears off. The first-week adrenaline is gone, the mentor's feedback is landing harder, and the finish line still feels a long way off. In this episode we talk about what's actually happening at the halfway mark — why the dip is normal, what it means about your progress (usually the opposite of what you fear), and the practical moves that get you to the end of placement stronger than you started.
