Teaching Should Work for You, Too

5m · Mr. G's Podcast · 06 Dec 17:27

If there was ever a year that I questioned my decision to become a teacher, this is the one. Within the first two months of this school year, I was thinking about an exit plan. I’ve been dreaming about a life that doesn’t involve waking up in the morning and going to work with a bunch of students. What would my life be like if I could make enough money some other way? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a less stressful job that didn’t require asking preteens to sit down and be quiet? Wouldn’t it be amazing to show up for a nine o’clock start, get two coffee breaks, an hour-long lunch, and then just leave at five o’clock?

Maintaining a Balance while Teaching

As it was for many people, 2020 was a challenging year for me. The year put into focus many aspects of my life that I hadn’t previously paid much attention to. I was so used to the routine of my days that I neglected to consider the value of what was in my life until 2020 brought them into view. It was a year of losses and gains, some more significant than others.

2020 in Review - Unscripted

This week, I'm going unscripted. I've written down four questions that I'll ask myself and then answer. 2020 is a year that shan't soon be forgotten and I think that the most important thing we can do for ourselves is to learn from our experiences over this past year.
