[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was briefly a "teacher trainee." I left at winter break because I received absolutely zero help with disruptive students. Admin simply didn't want to know about it and expected teachers to deal with the disruptions while also trying to teach a classroom full of kids. I also received zero training for report cards, yet was expected to do them, plan curriculum, have conferences with parents, keep order in a very unruly classroom, and get paid almost nothing. So, I left. Glad I tried it though; I almost decided to go back to school and get my teaching certificate first. The whole experience was traumatic and nothing I would ever repeat, but it did save me thousands of dollars.[/quote] As a veteran teacher I'm sorry you went through this but happy that you found out before wasting time and money. It wasn't always like this but it is now-even for teachers who are close to retirement. [/quote]
