[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the job was what it was supposed to be on paper, yes, it would be a great choice if you're willing to learn. But so much more time and energy is spent on behaviors and dumb policies than actual teaching.

There seems to be no deadlines or attendance policies so it's like having a corporate job with over 100 clients from who make crazy demands and don't get back you, and the service you provide for each is wildly different, but you still need to just the job done even though they aren't holding up their part. And then you send them an invoice and they tell you you're a b****. You have a few really great clients too which makes it hard to walk away. [/quote]

This is one of the best descriptions of what teaching is actually like. I would add that it is 12-15 hour days and your co-workers are cliquish.[/quote]

Look, teachers work hard. But if you are working 15 hour days- so like, 7 hour bell schedule then 8 HOURS of additional work after the students leave- you have really poor executive function skills. Like really poor. [/quote]
