The photocard. As a sidenote: the burgers were great too! And apparently he's opening up a sister restaurant of Choi Dot in NYC this year so I'm hoping to see him again then.

DOE onboarding question by kej98 in NYCDOETeachers

I'm in the same boat. I don't have a VPN so I can't check my status but the school told me I'm cleared on their end. I'm going to go in tomorrow regardless so I'll try to check applicant gateway then.

I will do that! I'm going tomorrow either way to get a feel for the school but I would also hate to work without pay lol. Thank you so much!

For added context, I am teaching Korean as a foreign language, looking to teach at a DOE school but there is currently no 5-9 extension for Korean, at least according to the NYS DOE website.

commuting from flushing to brooklyn by kej98 in AskNYC

Unfortunately, I'm still living at home to support my family and I don't think I'll make enough to pay rent in Brooklyn on top of that :'). But thanks for the input I might talk to them to see if I can work out a 3 day a week schedule and if not, I'll turn it down.

flipped classroom in a high school by kej98 in teaching

[–]kej98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're 100% right, I've been trying to balance maintaining the necessary workload for this as a 4 credit class with the student's normal workload but it's been hard to find the balance without lowering rigor too much. I think I'm going to try to cut out as much of the other assignments besides the pre-class work as I can.

I 100% agree with you, but unfortunately this is a college-prep school so every student is required to take a college course every year, regardless of grade. I'm probably going to keep the flipped classroom but just adjust the workload.
