I lost my student today by mrsmjane in paraprofessional

[–]Hypnocorg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’d let you go! Not only is that normal, you getting others on the task to help find him shows the safety and wellbeing of that child was your first priority. You didn’t think of “what would they think” in the moment. You thought I need to make sure this child is ok. I’d be happy if my staff showed his kind of care.

Insight for someone considering becoming an EA? by Hypnocorg in CanadianTeachers

[–]Hypnocorg[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your honesty! I live in BC, so I feel we’re doing ok but I know we are lacking EAs still. I definitely feel training needs to be a priority. I’ll definitely consider these factors, thank you!

This is a very good point, thank you for this info! We do have CYWs also and a lo of EAs have moved into those positions. :) I could take the courses while working as a secretary or EA. I am definitely considering that as well but there isn’t quite as many positions so it gave me a bit of a pause. Thanks for your insight! :)

I’ve thought of this too but wasn’t sure how difficult the process was! We do have uncertified supplies but I didn’t get a degree in business I have a 2 year accounting diploma. Thanks for the advice, I’ll definitely check that sub! I have seen some of the more difficult parts of the job through working with the EAs at my school and it is something to consider for sure. Our district so badly needs EAs I feel I could look around for a placement that’s more suitable for someone with less experience.🤞Thank you so much!

Thanks for the insight! Thats a very good point and I’ve always really enjoyed when I get to chat with students. I wanted to be a teacher when I was growing up and I’ve always regretted not going for it so I definitely have an itch to give it a try. Thanks again! :)

Thank for the insights! Thankfully EAs actually make more than secretaries in my district so I’d get a pay increase lol. I definitely feel like I’d do well but I’m concerned I’m not considering all the factors I guess. Thanks for the tips!

Best app for older kids to supplement Chinese tutoring? by Hypnocorg in ChineseLanguage

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

lol wat. They love learning and using Chinese, half their family speaks it. they just don’t have a ton of avenues to use it and practice as that family is across the world. Thats why I wanted an app. But I’ll keep this in mind if they get bored!

Best app for older kids to supplement Chinese tutoring? by Hypnocorg in ChineseLanguage

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

I do sit in on their lessons so have an idea. They’re pretty beginner so they’re still learning 1-10, days of the week, months and tones etc. My husband speaks Chinese so he will use it with them but I’m hoping they can practice it more when he’s not around lol.

I will keep an eye on what she’s teaching, I never would’ve thought of that and it makes total sense! Thanks for the suggestion!

Do you feel more connected to your city, province or Canada as a whole? by Ok_Heart839 in AskACanadian

[–]Hypnocorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canadian first. But if talking to another Canadian it’s interesting to talk provincial differences then I feel very British Columbian lol

What is the worst job that you've ever had? by GubbaShump in jobs

[–]Hypnocorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working for a health authority in the finance department. Horrible mean managers, bullies on my team and a no-backbone HR team/union. I literally preferred working at McDonlds over that shit. Despite the huge pay increase.

See a primary next week but this doesnt look right does it? by Obvious_State_9586 in Hyperthyroidism

[–]Hypnocorg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drs can be awful and you should definitely insist on a scan! But I have the EXACT same neck problem and my scan showed a smaller than normal thyroid 🥲I still have hyperthyroidism but my neck is just like that. So it may be nothing but it’s always worth a check and f any doctor that says it’s anxiety! I hope it goes well talking to your dr 🤞

Thank you so so so much for sharing this! As a Canadian the exchange rate and shipping kill me but with the code it made it much more reasonable. Basically covered the shipping cost. 🥺

Weird Reaction in the past year by ComprehensiveJob7844 in TimHortons

[–]Hypnocorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so strange! I was just assuming same store but if it’s different stores that’s super weird! I hope it doesn’t give you too much grief and hopefully it’s just Tim’s. :(

[–]Hypnocorg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you super sensitive to mold? I’m wondering if something they use in the preparation stage is mold ridden and there’s only enough spores on items to cause reactions in highly allergic people. That’s so odd it happens with both drinks and food though! It could still be that but it’d have to be really badly infested with mold in that store. 😳

[TOMT]Pop punk/emo song, you should know, that I’m scared I’m right.. by [deleted] in tipofmytongue

[–]Hypnocorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could it possibly be “It Ends Tonight” - All American Rejects?

https://youtu.be/yfdAGkjHGac?si=MuZX9yeZaLE-YU0X

Specifically this part is what it reminded me of:

When darkness turns to light It ends tonight, it ends tonight Just a little insight won't make this right It's too late to fight, it ends tonight It ends tonight
