In this post-class reflection, I break down what really matters on the first night of an IT course—and it’s not just coding or commands. It's confidence.
As I return to the classroom to teach Linux Administration, I share insights about:
Rebuilding relationships with returning students
Helping new learners overcome anxiety
Why tech education must start with confidence, not just syntax
How I use tutorials, patience, and scaffolding to support early success
What students need to believe before they can succeed
