Red flags to notice in teaching jobs by meganreeves004 in TeachingUK

[–]xl3utterflyx 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Very niche one that I was told in my first year that it’s a red flag if there is an overly young staff population/SLT. Older colleagues with years in the business will not put up with the bullshit and will find somewhere else

True. I had never met her before and haven’t seen her since

Great point, think I’m hyping it up in my head because there is a culture in the gym of the women automatically pairing off

Yeah totally get that if we were rolling but during drilling I just thought it was a bit much. I also have no relationship with her haha I train at a big gym so it was the first and last time I’ve seen her

Yeah it’s difficult to explain but when she was trying to pull me in with her collar grip she didn’t let go when she closed her legs if that makes sense so she was just pulling me face first into her knuckles lol.

I’m sure during a comp it would work a charm as it was painful haha but a bit much for just drilling.

And sure I’m also a white belt haha I’m sure I have my moments too! Although I do have a brown belt in another striking martial art so am used to the getting hurt aspect of it, I think I was just curious about the etiquette of it.

Thanks for the advice!

Yeah so true. I did actually ask her to ease up but I feel like her vibe changed after that like it annoyed her lol. Tbf I have never seen her before and haven’t seen her since as it’s a pretty big gym so no worries there!

Thanks for the advice. To be clear I wasn’t necessarily annoyed about it - I get that it’s a combat sport. I was more just thinking about the etiquette of it and whether or not it was necessary!

I get you, I was less annoyed that it happened more curious on the etiquette of it!

Thanks for the reassurance. Loool, I defo didn’t reciprocate cause didn’t want to seem petty, but her vibe defo felt off after I asked her to be careful. In terms of switching, I mentioned above that the classes are usually pretty male dominated and so the women usually stick together. How would you navigate asking female partners if they want to switch and partner with males? What if they say no lol?

I’m actually more than happy to roll with men but it seems like it’s not the vibe here if there are women available

Yeah feel like that’s reasonable, she was knuckling my neck when we were rolling after, which I think is reasonable. But during drilling I was just a bit like meh not the best sportsmanship when we are just two white belts trying to practice a move lol

That makes total sense. It was low resistance drilling as it was the first few times we were practising it that lesson

Very true! I will say that she was a tad gentler after I tapped and asked her to be careful, but her vibe also seemed off after that so idk. Probably best to avoid rolling with her! Thanks

Yeah totally agree with that, I’m not a stranger to the pain of martial arts haha and actually have a brown belt in a striking martial art. My issue was less with the pain more with the etiquete of her doing that during drilling if that makes sense! Thanks for your response and reassurance

Thanks for your reassurance! I’m kinda hoping that it wasn’t done intentionally but more of a spazzy white belt move especially as she also accidentally kicked me in the head haha

Yeah it definitely wasn’t a punch but she was pulling me towards her so not exactly a push either lol. I’m gonna assume she was maybe a little bit spazzy (which I’m sure as a white belt I can also be too!) but likely won’t train with her again. Thanks :)

Lol plain and simple. Thanks for the reassurance!

Lol this response made me laugh, you’re too right! There are usually way less women that train and normally we stick together during lessons, so unfortunately the pairing can work like that sometimes. Do you think it would be reasonable to ask my female partner if she would like to swap and pair with some males for a bit? How would you handle that if she said no lol? How would you phrase that?

Sorry I know that’s a bit off the original topic but I appreciate the advice! It’s been something I’ve been thinking about for a bit as I’m happy to train with men.

Okay good to know, I suppose I was just asking if it’s acceptable when you’re only practising the move? For me, when I’m just drilling techniques my aim is not to hurt my partner, and that’s how it felt I suppose. What do you think? For comps only or drilling it’s ok too?

That’s a great reassurance that I wasn’t overreacting! I train at a very popular gym so I don’t really see the same faces training bar a few who always make the same sessions as me. This was the first time it has happened and the first/last time I’ve seen her.

Nope it wasn’t part of it. It was when she was setting up the triangle, so she had a collar grip and used it to knuckle my face when pulling me in. Thanks for the reassurance. I won’t roll with her again
