Ok so I’m a high school student and it makes me so angry that teachers have to pay for all their (school specific) stuff! Like, you are teaching the next generation of society how be good people, but ‘ we’re gonna pay you a crap wage and not give you standard school supplies to help your kids thrive at school!’ I know this rant is probably pointless, but I still wanted to say it.

Thanks for that.  It is quite true.  It’s nice some people acknowledge it 🙂

What do teachers think when 1) a student is a teachers pet (less for grades, more just for attention/favoritism from the teacher) 2) a student likes to talk about a teachers person life with them (not too personal obv but like stuff non related to school) 3) students over achieving and being cocky because they’re smart & they know it 4) students having crushes on teachers

1) That’s their own prerogative.

2) Cool.

3) That’s their own prerogative.

4) I just threw up in my mouth.

Im starting my first year of teaching next Thursday. In 4th grade. I haven’t been into my classroom yet because the whole building is under construction and Im afraid it won’t be done in time. And Im super nervous I won’t be a great teacher. Im afraid I have bad classroom management skills and I just won’t be good at teaching. Any advice for a terrified first year teacher? I really want to do well.

Just care about kids.  Everything else will fall into place.  Try your best and show you care.
