I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know, but teachers have a tough job. Really tough.

If you’ve been there, all of these will look very, very familiar.

If you haven’t…try to sympathize, okay?

1. Don’t say it…

*waits for class to be silent*

My brain:
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it
Don’t say it

Me:
“It’s your time you’re wasting, not mine.”

Dear 1st Year Teachers,

You’re not doing it wrong, it’s just really THAT hard.

Signed,

Been there, done that, made it through, and so will you.
