Seriously, Who do you talk to when the stress of your teaching gig is driving you crazy? I know that when I was
teaching, it felt like a lonely place where there were not many people that I could trust to share with. And
there were very few opportunities to share with someone who had the possibility of knowing what I was going
through.
Teachers may want to hear from other teachers and successful people in education who are accomplishing much in a variety of fields of endeavor. What do you want to see in terms of venues of communication and collaboration among teachers?
We used to say as children:
"Sticks and stones, may break my bones but names will never hurt me".; but in truth both the names and the stones hurt, and did damage. We live in a day, and a time, where both literal stones, and despicable names are being thrown around at each other, as if, we never learned childhood lessons of basic proper behavior.
Teachers are entering politics, and collectively bargaining for their own
livelihoods, putting skin in the game, putting shoe leather to the ground to make the change that we need today.
When do you meet, and discuss teacher issues that relates to you, your
individual progress, to becoming the teacher you have always wanted to become?
You may have aspired to be a different, better, teacher, but were encumbered
with all types of control that may have hindered you professionally. What
should you do?
Becoming the best version of you, as it relates to the job we
are discussing. Often, people are talented, and can do many things well.
Depending on the task we are discussing, you are apparently good at it, if you
are applying for a job at this.
Some jobs start out seeming to be a profitable way to earn a living. But then
hidden fees kick in, costs for transportation, tolls, travel related fees,
non-paid work related issues, etc. complicated pay processes, that make the job less profitable than once thought. Moreover, some jobs don't pay enough to
repair the car you use to get to work, or pay for child care expenses
associated with taking a job. Can you pay your bills from the funds derived
from this gig? Would you be able to squirrel away some money to savings after
your bills are paid, or no?
Firstly: I think that it is good for teachers to think about themselves in a
financial sense, and also in a professional sense, because often we really
don't think of ourselves that way.
