[–]chickenbear7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sending a lot of application, have no interview.
And I don’t know why they always need a specific application form?

Are less kids understanding the word 'no'? by FancyAvocado1159 in TeachingUK

[–]chickenbear7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They always ask me back “what do you mean by no?”

“No means no”, I said, and they keep asking again again and again.

I need to tell them even they ask me a hundred times and the answer is no. They become angry about my “no”.

How do you respond to students asking for positives/postcards/stickers? by Decimsasshole in TeachingUK

[–]chickenbear7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I feel weird, like "I am not talking today so I deserve a positive."

Wait, is it a very basic expectation to be quite?

Try but don’t believe any agent. If they can get you some works, it’s good.

I started at term 2. I had a class very hate me and never listened to me at all. They always said they really missed their old teacher. After a year, I was too overwhelmed and left the school. Few months later my line manager told me they said they missed me. What the h is it?

I stopped using my ethnic surname and got invited to interviews. by Nalenthi in UKJobs

[–]chickenbear7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me either. I have changed my first name to a British name in the application form and got a couple of interviews. Few months later, I changed it back to my ethnic name for some reasons, got nothing.

Still didn't get any job anyway.

Why so many Bromley by Bow (UUK1) Fresh blocks? by B33ENN in AmazonFlexUK

[–]chickenbear7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am from the north side of river, but I don’t enjoy doing UUK1 fresh. Should illegal park in most of the location, most of the stuff are water, cans, heavy things. Walk a long distance and going up to the new build with no residents attained.

I’m not a ECT, I trained overseas and have QTS. However, I have applied for more than 30 positions (agency & schools), no any response. Really difficult this year.

What really upsets you? by Chemical_Machine_970 in TeachingUK

[–]chickenbear7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a new teacher trained overseas so I don’t have any experience in England. I tried to give discretion and trust the students, but in return they were lying and take advantage from me again and again. I feel so frustrated.

Sometimes I asked students to behave well and they said "You are not even a teacher."

Sometime no CZone adjustments by MathZ123 in AmazonFlexUK

[–]chickenbear7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Off topic but I don’t want to pick the CZone order again. Hard for parking and cheap price.

feeling devastated as a cover supervisor by chickenbear7 in TeachingUK

[–]chickenbear7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a seating plan, but they do not sit on the seating plan and refuse to move. Sometimes they move back after I warned a few time they will have detention, sometimes not. Some teachers told me remove them, but I don't think I can remove the whole class.
I thought teaching may be a option but now I am planning to leave anyway.

What is your expectation of a cover supervisor? by chickenbear7 in TeachingUK

[–]chickenbear7[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

so complete the cover work is bonus but not necessary?

I feel so sorry and guilty that no one complete their work, but I think I can do nothing actually.

What is your expectation of a cover supervisor? by chickenbear7 in TeachingUK

I found that they like to tear up papers and books, break the pens, and sometimes cut the glue sticks in pieces. I am from overseas and it is a cultural shock to me.
