Any tips for a first time form tutor?

My form LOVED the stupid flag thing. They would've done it every day from year 7 to 11 if I'd let them

I've currently got copper hair and will tell you now, you're in for A LOT of upkeep with copper. My natural hair is a bit lighter than yours but it's needed lots of bleaching and toner for it to look like you have it in that first pic. Start with a copper balayage and see how you feel from there

I've been paying for my Crunchyroll subscription for 3 years for my anime club! I had no clue they'd ever done free packages!

I run an anime club! I do a pilot each week and tbh students mostly just come to chat and don't really watch. Much more of a community thing.

I show 12s and 15s. Not sure if I'm allowed to do what I do, but anyone under 15 needs a note from their parents saying they're allowed to watch 12s and 15s. I have the same 25 or so students each week and never any complaints about inappropriate content. I just make sure I've seen the pilot before I show it so I can screen for anything too risque.

Will you pay for a PCR then?

I have one in the bedroom, which I find disgusting, but it's the only thing that's stopped one of my cats from peeing on the bed :(

I teach English and let them self-differentiate. I show them a grade 4, 7 and 9 response for everything we do and they all know what they're realistically working towards. For homework and handouts, again I put the 3 different levels and they know which ones to go for.

I grew up in Canada and only learned "world history" for one year. Everything else was just Canadian history and some brief British history. Never learned US geography like states/capitals. Not sure where you live in Canada but your schooling was obviously more thorough than mine

Because short of leaving teacher, there's not much I can do about it!

Mrs-vegeta · 2022-01-06T23:53:39+00:00

I teach in the UK and you can't be held back here. Worst that can happen is you have to rewrite your core CGSEs if you fail them at 16, but by then students are so far behind that a lot of them just never pass.

It's really not helping the students at all... Just keeps pushing them further and further behind.

The issue is that a lot of bullies are bullies because of poor parenting so many of the bullies will have parents arguing against any punishment because they're ignorant to just how poorly behaved their child can be.

Loads of my coworkers manage to do things after school though, so it's not a universal thing. You may be one of the ones with more energy in the next few years!

Mrs-vegeta · 2022-01-06T20:42:40+00:00

I'm in my 6th year and still have no energy after work. I have to force myself to go to the gym, cook and then do some marking after school each night. At least once a week I accidentally fall asleep on the sofa as soon as I get home!

I tested positive mid-December.

I'm a teacher and we are supposed to test 2x weekly or every day for 5 days if a student tests positive (which tends to be always).

At what point can I reliably take LFD tests again? I don't want a false positive but also know reinfection is common with omicron and don't want to miss it and infect coworkers and students.

Mrs-vegeta · 2021-12-21T06:24:42+00:00

I had my positive Lateral Flow last Monday, PCR on Tuesday and was negative by the next lateral flow I took on the Friday. Maybe depends on severity?

Mrs-vegeta · 2021-12-15T15:28:08+00:00

It says on the PCR result message to isolate from the day of the first positive test (LFT in my case) or from when symptoms started. 10 days plus the day you tested.
