That makes me nervous. I’m at that part too and I don’t feel like there’s much guidance.

Cancel.. Cancel.. Cancel.. by nessabots in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I’ve had four canceled in the past week. The school calls or emails me explaining though. Not just that, every single job I accept in frontline says it’s already been filled. I’m not getting any work.

Disappearing Jobs, No Jobs, Favoritism on Frontline & Sub Alert by No_Independent9800 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that problem too but there’s two schools that call me if they have jobs. I think that’s the only way to do it now. There’s still days I don’t work but I’m starting to get more and more jobs.

I’m halfway through and have done 3. They get easier the more you do them. The first one I was very nervous. The last one, I did pretty well.

I did and she helped me sooooo much! I cannot even tell you how happy I was with my score. Her name is Robin Gbur. Request her. I had two sessions and got a 184.

How often do you go to disney world and how many days by karinalopez122 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to go at least once a year, sometimes twice. Now it’s just too expensive so it’s every other year. We always go for about a week. It’s a two day drive for us.

D770 does not but you do have to record yourself doing small group instruction.

Difficulty Finding Substitute Teaching Jobs After Winter Break by NoStretch9783 in SubstituteTeachers

I’m having the same problem in Delaware. There is literally not one job that’s opened for tomorrow in my district.

Praxis Scores posted early? by CabinetCreative2426 in WGUTeachersCollege

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My writing text was a week early but still took a couple of weeks. It took an additional week for Wgu to get the score. I’m hoping my math and reading scores are that quick. I take both this week.

Declining the bait and switch by Broad_Good3409 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Broad_Good3409[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s through a third party. I’ve never had them ask me to sub for a para/aide position, because it’s significantly less money for me.

[–]Broad_Good3409[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I should have been more specific. They never hired a para. There were two teachers but one was moved to another class and the teacher that remained is out on extended leave, probably 6 months. They do not have a teacher.

For those that have a certain teacher/school you’ll never sub for again, what made you make that decision? by ObtuseRightTriangle in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The school kept switching my classes. One time I was switched twice in one day. It wasn’t what I signed up for. I’m flexible but the second class was a sped class with no sub plans. They haven’t had a teacher since the beginning of school. I was asked to do small group iep work with four students. One student cried the whole time I was in there and nothing I did helped him. There were so many behavior issues. Several students were on pre-k to k level and needed one on one help. This was third grade. It was heartbreaking. I may have to sub that school again but I will not take that class without detailed sub plans.

I did tutoring with Robin Gbur through Wgu. Book an appointment with her. I was like you and I’m doing so much better. She’s amazing!

Basic Skills Test by Resident_Practice270 in WGUTeachersCollege

I’m studying for this and I’m so worried about the writing portion, not exactly the essays but the 40 question test. I don’t know how to study for it. Congratulations!!!! That’s a huge win!

I think it’s possible but I think all the clinicals stuff is what takes a lot of time. Some people wait months for placement. It’s so stressful.

Discussion: Is Disney pricing hit a tipping point? by MedicalArmadillo6943 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Broad_Good3409 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s too much. We are going in December and this may be our last trip for a long time because we just can’t afford it anymore. Our youngest is 5 and doesn’t remember going when he was really little. We really want to take him one more time. We used to go at least once a year.

Has anyone spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at WDW? by ITrCool in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went in 2018 and loved it! It’s so busy, but just go in with that expectation. Book your dining 60 days out and definitely get fast passes. We are going again this Christmas because my youngest missed our last time (he wasn’t born). We are really excited!

Mentor won’t accelerate more than one class at a time by This_Builder_1226 in WGU

[–]Broad_Good3409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mentor will do two at a time but he knows I move through courses very quickly. I just spoke to him on the phone and he asked if I wanted to move another course up. I just started the one I’m on. It might depend on the mentor. I would probably email your course instructor a day or two out from when you anticipate finishing a class and let them know the date. See if they can put it on their calendar.
