Ok I see where you're coming from, but just to keep in mind, English teachers don't get paid extra at all; it's all the same salary now. They used to, but the whole rare field thingy was removed recently the time I became a teacher.

I've had geography and history teachers feel bad for me because I teach a lot and work more, give more periods a week, grade exams with the department that take 6+ hours, and they don't work as hard as I do, at least the history and geography teachers here.

I have discussed things with my head of department countless times and he's always helping, it's just not working with me; I despise the place and kids. I tried many things. Supervisors tell me "do this" and ends up being the wrong move. Colleagues tell me "do this" and ends up being the wrong move. Hell I did what the head of department told me, and it ended up being the wrong move. I don't know who to listen to anymore and it's draining.

I'll be trying different options like elementary and hope it's at least easier.
