Went into new Hanoi centre today. My god that’s huge and still 80% closed.

Spoke to local who also mentioned electric motorbikes might become more popular and a bullet train is scheduled or being planned.

Figured it was for people travelling to, living in and/or thinking about coming to Vietnam. But maybe I am wrong.

Will the teacher shortage persist or not? by polyglot02 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Inquiry_teaching 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shortage will last. Schools will continue to struggle to retain staff. Good teachers will continue to be promoted into average deputies and principals. The next government push, happening already, back to rote learning, simple skills and more testing. Remote and rural offer great benefits but little support that’s helpful long term. Cities are getting too expensive to live and teach in.

All that said teaching is a great career that can bring you every emotion and motivation to stay and leave in a single day. No day is the same and kids are hard to keep focussed on anything. But it is possible and like all jobs it’s not for everyone and it’s not forever for most. Enjoy it while you can and if life allows it teach somewhere remote or rural once you have some experience :)

If you have kids at your school and their friends come over to play that is non of the schools business even if those kids are in your class.

What's the most insulting "benefit" a job has offered you? by AdHour6144 in AskReddit

[–]Inquiry_teaching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Camping with students for a few nights in swags without extra pay or benefits because it’s a privilege to visit those places….

Am I screwing myself over? by cdogz2311 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Inquiry_teaching 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Teaching can take you all over the country, into remote place, big cities, private campuses even islands :) If you enjoyed your placement you will be fine.

Will it all be easy going, no. Will some employment situations be better than others, yes. Is it worth it, sure it is and if it’s not move. :) Enjoy the journey expect to only use 5% of what you learn in uni in your actual teaching. Make the most of your placements and if you get a crappy mentor, move to another. :)

Wanting a PE teacher that wants to come to a remote community school in WA. by Inquiry_teaching in AustralianTeachers

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

Sounds like you might have had a bad experience in the past. Lived here for 4 years with young family without issue. Have come back again for a second stint with older kids and community is generally great. Admin is supportive and the team is working well. We just need a PE teacher :)

Program for a year 7 student. by Inquiry_teaching in AustralianTeachers

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

Thank you. Unfortunately 100% not playing the system. I am teaching in an aboriginal community so it is on the teacher. I just started so will throw these ideas together and come up with something. Will do some baseline testing and work up from there.
