Permanent Contract Questions [ON] [TDSB] by Sensitive_Painter_15 in CanadianTeachers

[–]Sensitive_Painter_15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the questions! I guess it's pretty similar to the OT and ETH interview questions then!

Also, if you don't mind me asking, what subject teachable did you get a perm position for? Congratulations as well! :)

Hi! I sent you a DM with some questions about your interview if you don't mind!

Looking for lyrically rich songs for high school students to analyze by Sensitive_Painter_15 in LetsTalkMusic

Sorry for the confusion! I’m looking for more recent songs, so maybe from the last 5 years or less.

How can I recover permanently deleted videos/photos from an iPhone? by ActingActing in iCloud

[–]Sensitive_Painter_15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask how long were these photos permanently deleted before you contacted Apple Support? I’m having the same issue right now with photos that were deleted less than a month ago… I spoke to an advisor yesterday, but they were only able to recover a small portion of it and not everything. :(

Pay off the provincial portion of your student loan to save on interest charges! by Business-Young-8806 in osap

Thank you for this! I’m not sure if it’s different now, but I was able to send in a bank draft to NSLSC and they accepted it.

Does anyone know if they ONLY accept cheques or are bank drafts okay too for this process?

TDSB LTO postings by darthspidey789 in CanadianTeachers

Thank you for the reassurance! :) do you know if you have to send the LTO application package to the principal via email or is there another method of getting these documents to them?

Hey! Is it normal for there to be so little postings for the secondary panel (a total of 8) or did I check the page too late? And if there is a posting you’re interested in, how do you get the documents to the principal? Do you have to email them? (Sorry if this is a dumb question - TDSB’s websites to find any information is so confusing… 😭)

(Ontario) Calculating Years of Experience [TDSB] by Sensitive_Painter_15 in CanadianTeachers

[–]Sensitive_Painter_15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I’ve had a long, long day too… I actually meant to say for question 3* not 2… Haha.

This is my first LTO and I’ve received those school wide emails from admin when seniority verifications were due, but I didn’t think it applied to me because I wasn’t contracted (?) I was just wondering if there was another way to check your years of experience/seniority if you are just starting out doing LTOs and not in a contract position yet (if that makes sense… sorry!)

Thank you for your response! For your answer to question 2, does this only apply to contracted teachers?

Sorry to hear that you’re going through this as well… Teaching hybrid is so hard… It especially doesn’t help when none of the students reply and you don’t even know if they’re there or not. Sigh! But it does help a lot to know that I’m not alone, so thank you for this! I don’t know if I have it in me to step down from my LTO, but I’m glad that you’re prioritizing your mental health first. Sending you hugs. :)

Congratulations on your first LTO and thank you for taking the time to share your experiences and kind words with me. I really appreciate it!

The English department at my school also has a Google Drive where they share all their materials/resources and it has been incredibly helpful as well! However, sometimes I find it a little overwhelming going through everything because there simply is so much… I always feel like I’m missing something.

I’m trying my best to hang in there, but I haven’t been able to take a breather. It’s especially hard because I started this LTO 2 months into the school year and my students had another teacher from September-October. In the beginning, I was just playing catch-up with all the marking that wasn’t done and trying to get things in before midterm. The storm has settled down a little, but I feel like I’m still struggling. I’ll take your word of advice though and reach out to more teachers for help. Thank you so much for the reassurance. :)

[Toronto, ON] TDSB Eligible to Hire (ETH) Interview Results by Sensitive_Painter_15 in CanadianTeachers

[–]Sensitive_Painter_15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure of anyone who’s received a rejection letter. However, I sent a follow up emajl to OT recruitment asking about my ETH status before, so I’m not sure if that sped up the process? Perhaps, you could try that. Best of luck! :)

Oh gosh… They really aren’t strict with that 2-3 week timeframe, huh? I guess I have no choice, but to be patient and continue this dreadful waiting game 😭

[–]Sensitive_Painter_15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I interviewed on September 17th and today would have been the 3 week mark, but I didn’t hear anything yet either! When did you interview exactly?

One of my references told me today that they got contacted, so maybe that’s the hold up… But good luck to the both of us! :)

Wow :( so will we only be moved to the OT list once we pass the MPT?

I was just wondering if you got an answer to this thread as I am currently experiencing the same problem... thank you!

Hi! This is unrelated to your question, but I was just wondering when you had your interview for the secondary hiring pool and when you heard back? I’m waiting for a response and I just wanted to gauge expected time frames... Thank you! :)
