- Children are fun to be around.
- Teaching is a creative outlet- it is never boring!
- Teaching can be whatever you want it to be! Our curriculum is wonderfully broad- which gives us great scope planning wise.
- You can be on the move all day. We rarely sit down, unless it is to call the rolla! I know I would simply loathe sitting at a desk ALL day. And imagine only having a desk to yourself, rather than a whole classroom!
- That buzz/thrill you get when you and your class are really into a lesson and you learn from it together.
- The shorter working day! I know I do a good bit of work at home so I don’t switch off completely, but it is still nice to be home from work while it is still bright.
- The holidays! Midterm is just around the corner, then Easter. Also to clarify, we have two weeks and two days off for Easter, not three weeks!
- The days go by so quickly! So quickly that I never really get that ‘Oh it’s Friday’ feeling. I almost feel as though I am missing out sometimes! Now I do like to see Friday coming, but school is just too busy to be thinking about Friday on a Wednesday for example.
- You can teach about something you love. And hopefully instill a love in your pupils too for whatever that passion may be.
