[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher with 25 years of experience here. I won’t discourage you, but go in prepared. The days are exhausting. You’ll come home mentally and physically drained, and you’ll still have 2-3 hours of work to do in order to be prepared for the next day. Many of us will tell you the first couple years are brutal. It’s extra observations under the guise of “support” and a lot of on-your-feet learning to do. Things will go wrong and you’ll need to recover quickly. If you go in expecting those conditions and you lean on your colleagues, you can get to a great point. It never gets easier, but you learn to manage the chaos better. [/quote] Very accurate. I’m year 6 but the first 3 years were brutal. It’s still hard and I work 6 days a week trying to keep up with everything [/quote]
