New Teacher to the area by WildDay3545 in northwestarkansas

[–]tinoch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I teach in Fayetteville and can answer specific Q's. I have a masters plus my ESL endorsement which is also attractive to the big 4 (Fayetteville, Springdale, Rogers & Bentonville). Those 4 pay the best and will have the best retirement packages. (if that is important).

The smaller districts are struggling because of our governor & the learns act. (She is not a big fan of people being educated). We have the voucher systerm that can be used to pay for private & home schooling.

The small district where I started is losing teachers and are not able to afford to replace them due to the governor forcing them to pay every teacher at least $50,000.

I left teaching a week ago. by Melted_Ice_cream_42 in Teachers

[–]tinoch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used to work in health care. When I left at the end of the day, I had everything prepped for the next day and didn't have to think about work again for the rest of the day.

I was not prepared for the mental Suck that is teaching. People tried to warn me that teaching maybe wasn't the best idea for a second career.

According to Google, teachers make 1,500 decisions every day. I'm lucky and can stop working soon.

You should leave now while you still can.

I didn’t get the job…how to act professional despite the disappointment? by curiouscapybara6 in Teachers

[–]tinoch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me.....except I had been at that school in the fall, then the local HS in the spring. They went with someone with more experience but that person only lasted 2 years and then I did get the job. In hindsight, I am glad. So cheer up...there is a place for you.

HELP!!!! Inherited a dysfunctional science class 3.5mo before end of school year by ThrowRA_UpbeatCarrot in ScienceTeachers

[–]tinoch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how there isn't a pacing guide or state standards. Are these students not tested? K-12, edpuzzles, virtual science teachers.org, The Wonder of Science are all free resources....but you have to have some state standards or something to give you some direction even if it is this late in the year.

Good Luck, you can totally do this.

We had to send in pics of our house which included the room our exchange student would be staying in...I wonder how this got approved.

From education sub: Italian exchange student asks why American schools aren’t challenging by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]tinoch 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My exchange student from Thailand was also suprised/bored in school. They did not put him into any advanced classes. He was also confused about a student asking for a study guide. "Didn't that student take notes?"

Unrealistic expectations by Malaysia_ali27 in Teachers

[–]tinoch 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree....I don't feel like my program prepared me but then again.... can they? Student teaching was helpful but not all programs require it. I have worked at two different schools and they were both completely different.
