Trying to leave an impact
So, I have been a teacher (technically a substitute doing a teacher's job), and I have been teaching for just over 2 months. I have been working at a rough school, and I feel like the impact I have had is almost negligible. I do my best to be a good role model and an honest person, yet it seems that the students generally refuse to want to strive for anything, even personal goals seem nonexistent. I want to shake this feeling, but I am at my wit's end as to how to get rid of it. Is this typical?

As someone who came from a rough area as a kid, I didn't have any goals beyond eating and enjoying life before I either die or go to prison. That is all the future I had, to die or go to prison. So that is the wall you are trying to break down for your students. Unfortunately, the foundation is their parents life story, and the economy and media perception of "troubled youth" is the soil holding everything in place. You are seeing negotiable change because you are like a breeze trying to change the Great Wall of China. The task is going to take time and the gentle caress of many winds before real change is seen. Breaking down the wall, removing the soil, or lifting the foundation are alternative solutions that have more immediate gratification, but the toll on yourself is going to be harder. Analogy aside, as long as your students see poverty, prison, or death as their only outcomes in the future, you aren't going to see them setting goals.

Twice a week, I go to my professor's office hours before class. Today, she pulled out part 1 of the final exam and the last homework I submitted. I passed part 1 w/full points and I got a 98 on my homework. I'm so pleased and I thanked her over and over for believing in me, encouraging me and... read more

I walked across the stage yesterday and now proudly can say that I have two degrees. It's definitely an uncomfortable outfit but I couldn't of been happier to wear it.

To those who have a Bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies. Is teaching the only career you want? If so, why?
I have bachelors in Liberal Studies as well with no goal of ever becoming a teacher or a teacher's aide. I've tried finding other options but none of them seem to interest me. So now I'm stuck working in dead end jobs. (edited)

Created a website for free education
I’ve created a website to provide free education and support training for certification exams wondering if anyone wanted to help push humanity forward regardless of financial constraints. It’s a lot of work but it will be worthwhile

College teachers
When they get mad at you for showing up late to their class, when you are the one paying and they are your employee. When you ask them a question and they say Google it, even though you paid a lot of money for them to teach you.

Got to volunteer at Tinkerfest on Saturday
I got to see a bunch of people I hadn't seen in a while, which was really nice. I also went to the third story of Discovery Lab for the first time and ate a macaroon for the first time as well. They're really good; I've been missing out lol. Anyway, that was a really good day. #science #museum... read more
