I popped in to see one of my supervisors this morning to get a form signed, and she was telling me that she didn't expect me to be at the lecture this afternoon, as it's only an introductory one for the Level 1 students (this is for the course that I'm going to be tutoring on). She is doing the lecture in the place of the Head of Department (who is in London today for some reason), who had already told me that I should be there so that he could introduce me as the tutor so students would have a clue who I was. I mentioned this and she said "ooh yes, that's a good idea, that'll help me pad it out a bit so it's not quite so painful". That is pretty much exactly my approach to teaching too (ie "how the hell do I fill an entire hour?"), I think we're going to get on really well :)
