What are you unsure of stopping? The discount? You can’t stop someone from giving you a discount at their place of work, but if you have a conversation with him, don’t lie and say you’re still supplying. Appreciate the offer.

I’m a substitute teacher & a student from 7th grade when I began is now going into 10th. He works at sonic and gave me a discount and a free slushi. I wasn’t planning to return to subbing this hear, but I don’t fully know if I want to stop.

Hi, so I’m thinking about getting into teaching and I’m just wondering how many hours a teacher typically works, and whether you’d recommend anyone to get into teaching
I would recommend anyone who cares about kids to get into teaching.
I haven’t thought about it in hours before; ultimately, a teacher works 24/7. Scenarios: I’m at the mall and, hey, there are some students and their parents, and I better not be wearing and/or doing something inappropriate in public, because I’ll hear about it later and so will my principal and the ENTIRE SCHOOL. Oh, I’m partying at the bar; hey, there’s an underage student and I now need to tell the bouncer this information because it’s required of me by law. Oh, my upcoming cashier at Walmart is one of my students; maybe I should take out some of these items or go to someone different, now that I think about what is in my cart and who is going to see it…
In regards to specific work, it always varies depending on what you’re teaching, what you’re doing each day, etc. Let me just say that the majority of the hours outside of my teaching day are spent doing teacher-related things: marking, prepping, reporting, etc. I have had to specifically carve out time for myself and my family this year, otherwise I won’t do it.
It’s all about balance, and it gets easier with time. I am entering my 5th year of teaching; things got a bit easier in the last year, but I am teaching brand new courses next year with a lot of new prep.
I wouldn’t change my profession or what I do AT ALL, though. I love it. If I didn’t love it, I wouldn’t spend all this time on it and just do boring lessons and projects. I want to have fun in my day, so I have to do a lot of work to make it fun for me and the students.
If teaching interests you, volunteer in some schools or with after-school programs, and see if you enjoy it. Talk to some teachers you know personally about their workload and if you can handle it.
Good luck!

What turns you on?
A wonderfully-written essay that I only need to write checkmarks on the side, and maybe the occasional comma throughout.
… but really, WHAT? WHO ASKS THIS QUESTION TO A TEACHER!??!

I tried so hard to find a job. After 8 interviews, I’m still not employed. Do you have any tips for when I try again next year?
YOU CAN DO IT!
After you learn that you have not been successful in the interview, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS ask what you can improve on in the future. The people interviewing you should be able to tell you specifically what it is they are looking for and need from you.
Be yourself – talk about what you’ve done and show examples. Bring in a portfolio to showcase what you’ve done and what you’re able to do, and use it to help you in each question. My portfolio is bursting in a 2″ binder; just last year, I lessened it from a 3″ binder.

Hi! As a young African american female, the continued racial tensions and violence seen today is heartbreaking. But, the necessity to address such issues has never been as prevalent as it is now. Here’s a beautiful article I found regarding the issues: I, Racist by John Metta. This discussion and acknowledgement needs to occur. With strong mind’s and determined hearts we can be the future! Thanks for always inspiring me with your funny gifs!
Thanks for the resource and for your kind comments!
