I've been offered a position as a graphic design teacher in a school.
I'm hesitant to accept it because I have no idea where to begin preparing.
Is there a Graphic Design teacher here who's willing to share her notes/lesson plans?

I am not a graphic design teacher, but my school gave a course. Here are some of the topics we covered:
- General design principle - white space, focal points, color theory, font choices
- Advertising principles - seeing multiple times, different types of medium, examples of successful campaigns
- Using Illustrator - tracing curves with the path tool, layers
- Using Photoshop - brushes, layers, masking, retouching photos
Assignments included creating a campaign for a fictional client, or doing something useful for the school - best one actually used.

Thanks! That's definitely a great way to start!
Is there a recent graduate or student here that has notes to share?
