[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question...my mother was a teacher, and she spent nights grading papers or doing lesson plans. How do you do the side tutoring during weeknights? Do you not need to do prep for the school day?[/quote I’m not op but am a fellow teacher, more than 30 years in. I tell all of my younger colleagues that their nights and weekends are their own and to focus on something non school focused. I used to be like your mother and faced significant burnout feelings. When teachers practice self care and only work their contracted hours, burnout is lower and teachers have a healthier relationship with their work. I will work my a$$ off at work for my students but once the bell rings, the time is my own. My only advice to op is to make sure you aren’t burning your self out. Working 65 hour weeks may not be sustainable long term. [/quote]
