The Surprises New Teachers Never See Coming
Manage episode 375989500 series 2902749
We are breaking the seal on the teacher's starter pack of surprises. First stop? The Germ Station. No one gave us the heads up on how we'd be playing tag with viruses during our first year. (Who knew teaching came with a free immune system upgrade?). Summer breaks? Think of it as a "blink-and-you-miss-it" montage rather than the sun-soaked vacation everyone imagines.
And can we talk about the countless moments when students share their unfiltered thoughts? It’s like a mini stand-up comedy show, but you’re trying not to laugh (or sometimes, cry). The days? Marathon-long. The nights? A fleeting dream. And let's not even get started on the amount of actual teaching we do versus… everything else.
Ah, the notorious copy machine – the moody piece of machinery destined to jam only when you're in a rush. Trust me, it's more sinister than any school ghost story. And those hats we wear? Let's just say, that between being a teacher, counselor, event planner, mediator, and undercover superhero, we might as well start a hat shop!
But, as we chug along to the final station, let’s not forget the paradox of teaching: it's an energy-draining, all-consuming whirlwind that somehow fills our hearts to the brim. No one really tells you that, do they?
Choo! Choo!
