[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also an elementary ESOL teacher and it is exhausting. I just finished writing my lesson plans for tomorrow and I still need to go in an hour early to get everything ready. We work our butts off and are always blamed when our students don't make miraculous gains. All of my students make the expected gains but their peers have a 5 year head start in English. Apparently the 5-7 years it takes to master a language must be miraculously shortened by me and my colleagues. The paperwork is enough to make you cry. I enjoy teaching kids but all of the other BS sometimes makes me want to quit. I can't because I'm a single parent. [b]How about teaching overseas OP? I did that for a few years pre-kids and LOVED it. I keep my eyes open for jobs overseas myself :)[/quote][/b] Several of my former colleagues have done this after getting burnt out at the inner city HS we taught at. [/quote]
