[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I have to agree with the people talking about the inflexibility of your schedule. It's really deceptive. One of the reasons I left after I had kids was that I spent all night, all weekend working. Now, that does depend in a major way on the level, age, and content you're teaching, but in my position, it took every minute of my time. It wasn't worth the weeks off in the summer (which, also depending on where you teach, may be more taken up with professional development and meetings then you imagine it will). I would have gone back, though, to a very different school, but I changed careers instead. I still love teaching, though, and I knew that I did something every day that made a big impact on children. That part was awesome.[/quote]
