[Felix The Assassin]

Fellow IW's. I have changed my end of class comment sheets at work and it appears I have lost my enthusiasm.

History: Retired Army. Fall 1997-Fall 2000, Military instructor Master Gunner Course. Fall 2004 - Current, Army Contract instructor Master Gunner Course. Master Gunner Course = Seasoned Mid-grade and Senior-grade Non-Commissioned Officers. All inclusive; Army, Marine, and NG/Marine Reserve along with an interspersing of foreign military students.
Student, pursuing BA Human Resources ~ Occupational Communications.

This current class I changed up my end of class comment sheets to provide myself with better student to instructor analogies. This new sheet allows the student to express themselves wholly and fully without repercussion on either themselves or the instructor.

My old sheets had comments like "Excellent knowledge" "Professional" "Good use of experiences".

My new sheets have comments like: "Excellent knowledge, but lack of emotion". "I learned a lot from this class, however the instructor could have made it better by being more motivating". "Mr. Felix adds to the class by interjecting real world experiences, but shows lack of concern for students experiences". "Very professional, very non-interesting teach character from Mr. Felix". "Excellent knowledge-Excellent use of experience-Excellent use of instructor techniques. However, Mr. Felix lacks motivation and enthusiasm in his presentations".

My fellow IW's, I ask of thee, how do I find my motivation and enthusiasm for my students benefits?
