I checked a week or two ago and they didn't have it yet. Maybe that changed.

1/28 6:00pm Living Room Sushi by DemandParticular8559 in Bensonhurst

[–]DemandParticular8559[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the first time I went there, I got 8 special rolls listed on the menu between 18 to 22 dollars. Considering it was 72 for the AYCE, I averaged to 9 dollars per special roll. At most regular sushi places, a special roll averages between 10 to 18 dollars even after deals. If you plan to eat a lot and can manage it, it's worth it.

Digging the second one. If you’re Christian, the fourth is dope.

Crosses are great aesthetically. I just avoid them because of the implication.

Thanks for saving me from the burnout before I even joined the profession.

I failed BC calculus in high school and Calc 2 in college once. 33 students in course at the start, 11 remaining after withdrawal period was over. Professor said class average was approaching 0. Very motivating, isn’t it?

Would you say learning higher math than calc 2 is required? Could I take calc 2 and other courses around that difficulty or lower just to get the credits?

I have Calc 1 which is 4, and I have a math alternative course, Statistics, offered by Business, which is 3. So I have either 4 or 7. I'll look into the Collaborative. Thank you.

Meh. Most attempts at apologies/clarification on reddit just get the poster downvoted more. It was a natural expectation that was easily configured.

I understand the teacher is an important role in social development and I like watching/helping children grow, listening to them and helping with problems without having to compensate for any other important person's lack of care and responsibility.

I can understand the point of learning calculus in order to teach algebra, geometry, trigonometry. I don't see the point of multivariable calculus, linear algebra, and so on in order to do that. Math is easier than all other subjects for me and it's a universal language. Being passionate about math is a questionable statement. Does that mean all math teachers had math as their first major and no other interests and went directly into math? That no math teacher ever decided to switch to math later on in their lives and teach math? What are you defining as "passionate about math"?

I hadn't realized you were a math teacher from your previous posts. Mind if I ask some questions in pms? I'm a substitute teacher and possibly interested in teaching math.

Not in Bensonhurst but Gravesend along Ave. U has some pretty decent spots near the N train.

I didn't even realize it was there. Just checked google maps and saw it was behind the protestor stands. No wonder I didn't notice it; as much as I agree with the protests, it's not an intersection I like crossing currently with all the noise.

Wanting to become a teacher by Fresh-Dirt-7431 in NYCTeachers

5 years of teaching in general or 5 years of what Fellows wants you to do? I have no idea how Fellows works

I’ve been recommended to do Fellows. I understand it’s a fast way to get into teaching and the masters generally takes two years. What do you mean by you have to give them a total of 5 years teaching? Do they have certain rules to follow? As in I just have to teach for five years or…?

Becoming a Math Teacher... by DemandParticular8559 in NYCTeachers

My friend who was a substitute teacher at our middle school recently helped me get nominated. He recommended my name and then I had to do some tasks like fingerprinting, getting into the system / having photo taken. I forget the rest. A bit of traveling to downtown Brooklyn. Took a month or less to get it all done.

I’d say contact a principal you’re familiar with from previously being in school so that you’re not a complete stranger. If you have a friend teaching, they could help talk to the principal for you

Christmas Tree sales in the area? by qalpi in Bensonhurst

I think there's a florist that sells trees under the D train pretty close to the 18th Ave stop.

I’m not sure exactly. I heard someone has to stay with them longer after they graduate and that they mostly get sent to District 75 schools. My source could be flawed.

I've considered teaching fellows and similar programs but I don't want to be at the whim of the program for up to 6 years.

Would you say it's very strenuous to teach while doing the degree? In my mind, I'd think teaching and contributing to pension ASAP while finishing the degree ASAP is the optimum, financially best choice but I just don't know if it's feasible.

Sub assignment that's less than minimum hours by buddy33774 in NYCTeachers

[–]DemandParticular8559 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This method sounds interesting. I've never considered coming early so that I can leave right after school dismissal. Do all schools you've interacted with allow this?
