I want to share my perspective here, not as an educator, just as a person who came from a 100 % "white" country. I grew up in Hungary. Our...
My last day of school was last Friday and we didn't have anything. In the past our last day was always a full day, but we had set aside the last 2...
About speaking, I think it's the right speed. I used to think that it was better for me to talk slowly, because of my accent but now watching my...
Walking always helps to calm down and clear your mind. I would say just stay away from the news or social media. I cannot stand watching all these...
It's because I haven't shared the details about this principal. No one liked him. He was a control freak, and insecure about everything. Didn't...
I have no idea. I'm a fan of straight forward communication. I am straight forward in my personal life, with the students and coworkers, my...
Maybe, but none of us knew what it meant so it wasn't effective. Just say we need to change some things it's not even negative.
From my point of view, the benefits of this job outweigh the concerns. As it's been mentioned already, with a new job come changes and often...

This a great article. I love how it accurately described what a highschool or hogh school class looks lie and how highschoolers act, and a very...
I have been camping pretty much every weekend. Campgrounds were closed but you can still camp on public land and I have everything I need....
The CTEL is embedded in newer credentials in California (like mine, I got it in 2011) However back in the day they didn't, so they were offering...
First of all congratulations !! Second, I would wait. If the first one turns out not going through, would you take the second job? If so, just...
I don't see any shortage where I live. I live in a city of 68K 20 minutes from a city of 500 K. When this whole thing started I had 5 rolls of...
I agree. My principal agree said that in the year 21/22 we will have the funds to go 1:1 with Chromebooks. That's the first I've heard it. But we...
