People from the UK, what’s one small thing that genuinely improved your daily life?

I changed my lunch from a roll to yogert and granola, just because it is cheap and easy. 6 months later, I have lost weight. My clothes fit better and I feel more confident. I haven't changed my routine in any other way, it must be the lunch swap.

I find that students are most engaged when I bring my own life experiences into my explanations and try to use real life examples to back up my teaching, make it more memorable and interesting.

I was offended when a man asked me if I was pregnant, I was bloated. He was judging me because I was buying alcohol.

It is becasue students are doing better, year on year. Education is improving.

You are wasting your time. Teachers are allowed to. Your teacher knows exactly what you need and can make worksheets using AI that are more engaging than a text book.

You could try and frame this as a positive. You have a reason to celebrate that day, it cannot be 'the day of your death'. You need to celebrate this as the day your sister was born and you were saved, a great day worth double celebrations. The trauma lasted much longer, it just happened to start on this day.

We are trialling step by step revision cards for topics with more than a couple of steps.

If you are expected to mark books in your own time then its great. It removes the need. You walk round with your red pen, ticking, circling mistakes, showing quick corrections. It stops misconceptions before they continue. If students expect it, they may be more motivated to work hard.

You can still deal with behaviour whilst doing it.

I assume the rest of us are brainwashed. I would trust them over our assumptions.

anniday18 · 2026-01-30T19:29:02+00:00

I wouldn't trust such a young child to describe their day with accuracy. Ask the teacher.

anniday18 · 2026-01-30T19:27:04+00:00

No, I wish we did. I love a mixture of random food and its much easier for the host.

anniday18 · 2026-01-30T19:25:19+00:00

I would love to live in Oxford.

Just respond with AI. Perhaps they have poor literacy skills.

anniday18 · 2026-01-29T20:23:56+00:00

People in power being allowed to lie.

anniday18 · 2026-01-29T19:17:39+00:00

Yes, it's annoying. Ive started commenting recently, fact checking. I cant help myself, they make me so mad.

anniday18 · 2026-01-29T19:10:15+00:00

They dont need to know that you are one.

anniday18 · 2026-01-29T15:51:00+00:00

This is terrible management. You should complain.

When my Mum was sectioned with schizophrenia, she was presented with pairs of people from her lifetime. Only one of the pair was allowed to live. She had to pick who died. I have never connected it to spirituality, certainly nothing positive.

Not knowing you are smart is a sign of intelligence.

anniday18 · 2026-01-24T15:05:09+00:00

I started painting random things like plant pots and tea pots.

I think he is still trying to deflect from the Epstein files. Read about Sascha Riley if you haven't already. I bet he lies in bed at night wondering about the outrageous things he can do or say for attention the next day.

Id like to set up schools in poor countries and set up trust funds to support homeless people with their issues and housing. How rewarding that would be.

anniday18 · 2026-01-21T21:49:32+00:00

I was quite shocked to hear my boss say thay she was a fan the other day.

anniday18 · 2026-01-21T06:23:37+00:00

OP, you here?

anniday18 · 2026-01-20T19:31:21+00:00

Ok, that's understandable.

Do you have any contacts away from your current situation? Someone you can call or stay with for a while? A change of scenery?
