inquire
I know this is a question that you should never ask your teacher but…How old are you?
I’m very seriously considering becoming a teacher, but I am physically disabled and I worry this could cause students to see me as a joke, or less than a “normal” teacher. I want to teach high school English, preferably Honors, as I’ve always been very passionate about the humanities. As a high school teacher, do you think my ability might be an issue?
You show respect and how it isn’t an issue for you, then the students will follow. I would be open about it with your classes and go for it. Good luck!

I have this one class that is just nothing for me. I learn 2 weeks straight for a test, always make my homework and still manage to fail :c I’m not sure if my teacher hates me at this point or just has extreme pity for me
Have you spoken to your teacher? Something doesn’t seem to be working if you’re studying for that long and are completely failing. Ask your teacher what you can do to improve, or if they can give you some extra help.

I’m a pre-service teacher for high school students right now but it’s part of our curriculum to teach third graders for an hour a week. Lately we’ve been having some trouble keeping them quiet and listening for us for more than fifteen seconds. Do you have any advice and some tricks on how to keep children interested in the lesson without making them play every five minutes?
Oh, gross! Oops, sorry; I just pictured myself having to do that and NEVER!!!
I am not an elementary school teacher, so you’re best to ask one. However, the behaviour still sounds like typical behaviour of my high school students and I will try my best. Usually, I have to do things in increments, like no more than 15 minutes on one specific thing. Make it connected to the students and interactive; get the students out of their seats, whether it’s in front of the class trying something new or working with a partner/small group to discover something. Eventually, bring them back around to share what they’ve been doing. Again, I’m not sure of the logistics in a grade 3 class, but try to keep things different and fun for them!
