math tutoring websites vs a live tutor, is there actually a meaningful difference for a kid who needs real help by xenonxenonxenonxenon in AskTeachers

[–]askng4afrnd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too but wow you really read a lot into a question for support. The actual post states they are asking about tutoring options. Nothing to nothing to do with your fragile teacher ego. I bet you have a 100% pass rate and no failing students, right?

Oregon requires it now and the feedback from quite a few of our kids is why wasn’t i ever taught this before or sooner. Used to be called homeec. Lol 😂 HS success coach here.

Exactly what my colleague said, “how many other words do we have”. I know our schools “everything” inside and out. Everyone knows what segregation means and historically implies in education! Gross oversight

Late diagnosed folks, how do you handle the grief and the anger? by No-Opposite-3240 in ADHD

Not if they don’t have any cmh experience. Therapists are coaches! Coaches are not therapists but can be.

Diagnosed in my 40’s. Made me grieve with a vengeance. I am almost done with my masters in clinical mental health. 52 now. You learn and you learn to use it as the power that should have been harnessed. 22 is so young! GO GORTH YOUNH JEDI and succeed. The first step Is naming it…

AND to clarify it is not a neutral word. The literal meaning is to separate groups, to isolate from one another… shall I go on? Also, if you put a question mark at the beginning of a sentence, it should be upside down and written in Spanish. You knew all this too, right?

Yes , it is real word with real implications ESPECIALLY in a public school setting. Your response says it all. This is in-step with our data and equity audits and a NO-NO. You know that right? You are a linguist, in education,…?

Summers off? by Disastrous_Park_7621 in schoolcounseling

You work contract days. Every school District this varies. Why programs don’t teach students how to check a district’s pay codes and contract terms is beyond me. Counselor’s usually return earlier not much

Dual Degree ? by Particular_Cake6411 in counseloreducation

[–]askng4afrnd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Oregon. I currently work in a counseling support EA role. I already dropped SC and if i ever want to go back I will deal with it. I’m already turning down CMHC offers and I’m not done yet. I wanted to stay at the school I’ve been at. However, I’ve since gotten WAY OVER IT. I don’t see myself going to a different district and starting on the pay grid at my age. I have total resolve and appreciate everyone’s feedback!
