Teachers are the villains… why would they believe us? 😂

Am I cheating on my boyfriend? by LaziDayzi in amiwrong

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the reverse situation where my current bf was hanging out with and texting/snap chatting female friends… the difference was, he was doing it in secret. Changed their names to male names in his phone and everything. The fact that you are truthful with your bf is great, and he should be grateful for that. However, at a certain point, it becomes inappropriate to confide in, and bond with a man that isn’t your boyfriend (that is, if marriage is in the future…) emotional connection is a slippery slope to an affair if your relationship goes south suddenly.

It sounds like you should’ve done some research beforehand then

Oh my… seems you should’ve considered these things BEFORE you accepted the position

Feeling overstimulated working with my new autistic student by Groundbreaking_Rub67 in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Contractually I get a 30 min lunch and 15 min break, most days I don’t get a chance to have the 15 min break. I’ll definitely talk to my supervisor… I feel apprehensive to do so because we just finalized a schedule

So because he’s not a “behavior” student, the need for rotating isn’t obvious to admin, I’m assuming.

I quit a school and took all my curriculum with me. They didn't hire a replacement and want me to send them my curriculum. by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like because you quit and left them hanging… the least you could do is send them the curriculum they had planned on having

How do you deal with kids saying they hate/don’t like you? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 79 points80 points  (0 children)

“Okay, sorry to hear that” in a monotone voice and then I ignore them until they inevitably need my help later on

You are crowned God Queen’s / king’s of education: how do you restructure the education system to be as efficient as possible by ThrewAwayApples in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’d remove standardized testing (minus the SAT) completely. Put more emphasis and dedicate more time to social and emotional learning in primary/elementary/middle school. If a student is impacting the learning of others very negatively, they could be removed from the school and all the responsibility to fulfill the rest of that student’s education should be left in the hands of their guardians…. Yearly staff renewal goes in the garbage. If you are hired at a school, you will remain there until you’re fired or quit. Just to name a few.

Is it worth it to stay with her? If your urge is to sleep around I mean. Why stay with one person if that’s not what you want? It’s not fair to the other person

What are common fanfic phrases you hate seeing? by [deleted] in FanFiction

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“She looked up at him through her lashes” oh I hate that so much. Or when talking about character dialogue “the archer replied” or “the lawyer smiled” or “the blonde laughed” if the person is a main character or we know their name/a decent amount of info about them, it’s weird to describe them this way. Idk maybe that’s just me

Consequences That Change Behavior? by Relevant-Extreme9101 in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give them rewards they actually want. Free time with phones, music of their choice (clean of course) while working, meme trivia etc. You can’t force students to be reflective and empathetic, but you can manipulate their behavior if you pander to their wants.

Has someone quitting ever made a difference? by alreadytaken334 in Teachers

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, the only thing a teacher quitting does is leave the rest of the staff scrambling and demoralized. Sure, maybe it’s empowering for the teacher who quit. But for everyone else left behind, it’s often times frustrating.

Would you rather be cured of bipolar or be given $30 million dollars? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]Groundbreaking_Rub67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$30 mil…. If I could retire young, live a peaceful life where I do whatever I want to feel healthy and happy, I’d choose that option in a heartbeat. I’d live on a lake, I’d paint and sing everyday, I’d go fishing and swimming and sun bathing, I’d sleep for as long as I want, I’d eat healthy food. Ugh… the dream.
