Teaching my regular classes at the Ross Farnsworth - East Valley YMCA.

We had a small rank exam tonight, with two candidates in the youth class and one in the adult class. Things went well, as expected. There’s always a chance that someone will just have a bad day, but my students are generally well prepared for tests because I require a certain amount of attendance before they’re eligible and I’m always willing to tell students they should wait if they’re not ready. I often say that I’d much rather be the “bad guy” for not allowing you to test than be the bad guy for not passing you on your test.
