As a retired teacher I can say that nobody understands how demanding the job is until they actually do it. Parents trying to teach one, two or three children at home, should try teaching a class with 35 children. Not only do you have to keep the kids orderly but you also actually have to help them to learn. So the next time you complain that the teachers have summers off, stop and think back to these days. Don't begrudge that teachers appear to have shorter work days. Most of us spend several hours after dinner preparing lessons for the next day and marking work. The majority of us do it because we love kids and want yours to do well. Best of luck with your home schooling and don't forget to say, "Thank you" to your child's teacher.
Yes, and we accepted crap pay, blame, guilt, abuse, career stagnation and horrendous workloads. It's gonna take a lot more than a wine-soaked video to lure me back into all that. No thank you.
@@coleford6197 crap pay! In mass teachers avg 80k per yr. Is that not enough? Their response is we need masters degree my answer is your overqualified obviously afterall all you do is regurgitate same stuff yr in and yr out
Actually in my experiences most of my teachers and then my children’s teachers have been a joke. They don’t care about my child and their education like I do and when you don’t care about something, your life and job is a whole lot easier. I now homeschool my kids and it’s definitely more difficult for a mom who cares than for the lazy, careless teachers who taught my kids
@@Gina231329 Fair enough. The system itself has been in slow decline for a long time, AND teachers who started out fresh, inspired, and full of energy and ideas either burn out and stay anyway or turn right around and leave the classroom after a year, or sometimes a day. Teachers often talk about empathy fatigue, where they are expected to care about so much: the child's home environment, welfare, health, nutritional, and social/emotional needs along with trying to meet increasingly Byzantine state and federal requirements. And the pay is abysmal.
@@iomibestlefty The cost of living in Mass is quite high, right? Families in San Francisco can earn ~150k per year and still receive state assistance. I'd say more but it seems you need to brush up on your stats.
I'm a retired teacher. You ladies are hysterical! "I have two students, and they're so mean!" I love everything about your video, and just to let you know, the teachers I know love their jobs. I taught twenty-eight years, and I sub, but I miss teaching and having my own class. Kids are great, and they behave so much better at school. It's almost over until summer, and then hopefully everything will get back to normally as far as school is concerned. Thank you for such a funny video that had to involve a lot of work!
I watched this for a laugh but got emotional at the end. No one has told me I’m appreciated for what I do this year- I see a lot of teachers getting lawn signs, or cards, lunches and goody bags from their principals or from parent council, and that’s just not an initiative that would happen at our school. Even a thank you email would have been nice. What I’m trying to say is thank you for recognizing what I do, it means more than you know. ♥️🍎
Mme Esposto as an educator myself Thank You!!! Our reward comes from watching our children grow. From helping them develop. You are special because you teach!! Thank you!!
Aaaawww thank you for all you do!! I ALWAYS say thank you to the teachers and staff at my daughter's schools and also daycare when attended. I know your struggles! 🥰🤗❤
Please know, you are beyond appreciated. My school didn't get too much celebration either. But we do it for the kiddoes, right? But I hear you, it is nice to be recognized.
I told my sons teacher yesterday that I understand now why he would rather go to school than stay home with me. I get it...no hurt feelers...SHE IS AMAZING!! I miss her too!!!
Thank you for this very funny tribute. As a retired teacher with 30 years in the classroom, I could still identify!!! What seems to have slipped under the radar is that teachers have families too, with their own children to teach/help when they got home from work as well as cook dinner. I can’t tell you how many hours were spent at my kid’s sports functions sitting on bleachers correcting papers or responding to 30 journal entries. Still, I loved my kids and teaching. I also was blessed with some of the most amazing parents. Lucky me!!
Oh my god, I needed this so bad! Thank you so much, I'm a junior high art teacher, this has been insane and you ladies just made my week! The drunk call is the best!!!! Literally LOL
As a Grade 1 teacher I appreciate this so much. Teachers know this is insanely hard to just hand our job to you parents so thank you for trying your best! ❤️ we are a team right? With your child’s best interests at heart:)
Actualy union teachers are the worst possible group looking out for kids best interest.although they use kids best interest as a weapon in media to make their lives more convieniant. After all 100% of the time their real demands create less work and or more money. And what kill me is people actualy buy into their bulls&%t.
Well thank you! And your welcome! I loved the “I’m an art major” while sobbing. I was an an art major and have now been a hs art teacher for 23 years. Just about every single in school staff development I have ever gone to involves “literacy in the classroom”, so I feel your pain at being expected to jump through unfamiliar hoops.
As a 6th grade math teacher I died at distributive property but I am so touched with this video and thank you!!! For thinking of us teachers. Hope you guys stay safe and sane too!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I spent a few years as a preschool aide, which basically made me the queen of behavior correction and bodily fluids, and I can tell you that this quarantine homeschool shit is way harder than wrangling 18 3-4 year olds. On both the teachers and the parents ends. Kids behave better for people who aren’t their parents, parents aren’t trained in all the current teaching methods, and no one, kids, parents, or teachers are used to this online model. This is not homeschool, this is its bastard cousin: hellschool. Also, we just had dinner an hour ago and I’m already hiding in the garage eating pop tarts. Plus I have an hour most afternoons where my husband watches the kids so I can go exercise, but mostly I use that time to sit on the grass outside the vacant elementary school down the street and stare at bees.
I’m doing my student teaching right now and I am so impressed by every single one of the teachers I’ve had the pleasure to work with over the year and through this pandemic. They put their heart and soul into this job and I promise it is NOT Easy. They are super heroes for sure! Can’t wait to join the ranks.
Thank you so much! And I, for one, salute all the parents our there that have been thrown into homeschooling with no prep or practice. It takes a village is the mantra of the COVID pandemic.
😂😂😂 omg that was CLASSIC!!!! As a teacher, all I can say is BRAVO, WOHOO!!!! But seriously, THANK YOU to all my fellow teachers everywhere, I know this is NOT easy AT ALL. Thank YOU parents for your understanding, patience, support...but mostly, thank you, thank you a million times to teacher parents, you all have it harder than anyone. You teach your classes, while taking care of your families. You all rock. I think the ladies in the video have it right...when it doubt-lots of wine and chocolate 😉 Happy Mother's Day to you all!
I love you 2 so much! My husband and I are teaching our 2 grandsons while our daughter-in-law teaches her classes from her home. Your skit really touched us!!❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂
This is great. And it’s wonderful to feel so appreciated. Please remember these sentiments the next time your state or school district asks for additional tax revenues for schools.
Thanks for this. My fellow Americans: Those summers off for teachers are because their days are usually 11-12 hours minimum, and most take maybe 1 day off per week, or even only a half-day. Weekends are not really real to teachers during the school year, because weekends are when the REAL work happens. Try going without a weekend for months on end and then the reason for summers off comes into sharp focus. Thank you, TEACHERS AND PARENTS!
THANK YOU MOMS! For all you do. This video is amazing! Thanks for putting in the effort to make this. Things like this, from the awesome families we love... that´s how we keep going. I hope Ellen sees this and gives you both a million dollars for making the best teacher appreciation gift ever! Well, sometimes we also get wine or cash...
Love the Chopin in the background, love the WW mug (I have the same one), and love this video. Thanks to every single teacher out there. The struggle is real ladies. Keep strong!!
Thanks so much! I’m a special education teacher who tries so hard to connect online with my fantastic students and parents. I also cry because it’s not easy and I miss the awesome daily learning and social interactions I had with my students. They inspire me in so many ways. I would PAY to go back to school.
So comforting is this feeling of not being alone, of being understood and recognized! And I feel it twice as much, as do many other mom-teachers! I want to leave my "Thank you very much" here!
I just want to say how much I LOVED your video!. I am a second grade teacher and also a parent of a second grader. I couldn't stop laughing!! Thank you so much for making that video! It really brightened my week and gave me some great laughter! And I am passing it along...you two rock!! I wish I had your comical skills!
This is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! You guys are the best! As our stand in teacher thank YOU for taking care of our kiddos to make sure they are successful in our absence, I know it has been tough.
This was circulated around our school and shared on our teacher stream =) Thank you so much from one of the most important jobs to another of the most important jobs! Thank you moms, dads, grandparents, siblings, guardians, friends.... the list of the village goes on and on in supporting our kids, families and each other right now! Thank you for taking your personal time and energy in putting this together and sharing it. Means more than you know! Grace, Health and Blessings to you and your families!
Thank you as always. I'll be using this video in a training about what happens when you take on change too quickly without preparing others around you. Ya'll are my heroes!
# We Love you ladies so hard! As a teacher, and a mom, I feel that video with every fiber of my soul. I am trying to teach high school online now and DEEPLY appreciating my child's elementary school teacher right now. I was not cut out to help teach 2nd grade!! We can do this guys. Keep truckin! Summer is almost here!!!!
I'm grateful for all the parents doing a great job at home atm! My school has been "opened" since it was officially closed in March. We're looking after kids who can't stay at home, even on the weekend and during the Easter "holidays". We've been back at school for teaching (small groups, every year once or twice a week for 4 to 6 hours) for 3 weeks while still organising online lessons and stuff. Most of "my" parents really appreciate the effort or at least "roll with it", but I've seen the other side 2. I've been insulted for over 20 minutes on the phone, being called useless, was told she doesn't see the point of sending her kid to our school because "she learnt more at home during the last 7 weeks than nearly 3 years at school" (spoiler alert: No she hasn't). That really hurt, especially when you've been tutoring said child for 4 hours during emergency care. (homeschooling (without Rona) isn't allowed in my country, so no option haha)
This experience with homeschooling has actually got me contemplating on switching to homeschooling full time. I always thought it would be too hard, but it’s way easier than I expected. I have an autistic son who is very intelligent so I constantly have to coordinate with teachers on how to properly engage him in his work and I constantly feel like we’re pushing him into a mould. At home, he leads the study and yesterday’s lesson on how to measure with a ruler turned into a lesson on the differences in metric and imperial measurements then how to add fractions.
You two are the best! This got shared among our elementary staff, and I have to say that you nailed it! Thanks for such a hilarious and relatable video (from what I know my students' parents are going through)!
Homeschooling: Not just for moms anymore. I'm a dad and we feel the same frustrations and annoyances. And why isn't 12x9 the right answer? But, we love our kids and want to do it right. All of those different lesson sites you mentioned , we do most of them. Zearn, IXL, math playground, Vocab City, Google classroom, Remind, Kahn, Zoom, etc, etc. All the passwords you got to keep up with. One group of teachers use txt messaging, while another group sends messages thru email like its the 90s. This teacher uses this site and that teacher uses another one. Why can't it be streamlined? We still have a big blank spot on the fridge where the lunch menus were once posted. And since we can't go out to eat, the sink is constantly running over with dishes. The laundry load isn't quite what it was, maybe I should make them change clothes more often. Thankfully, we don't have recorder practice.
I don't have the question in front of me, but if they're using distributive property to find sums of 12, it sounds like a perimeter question. 12x9 would be area. It's probably asking for fencing around the garden, not the area inside. So if you have 12 meters of fence, how many different pens can you make for the garden? 5 + 5 + 1 +1, 4 + 4 + 3 + 1, and so on.
Teacher here (and parent), believe it or not, making contact via different mediums is NOT preferred by us whatsoever - it'd be much easier to see out one group message in one way, but parents either don't have a phone, internet access, check emails, won't join a class facebook/DOJO page, there are plenty of reasons why someone can't do something - I don't know your situation though. But using multiple ways to make contact is completely necessary and more of a bother for us than the parents. Everyone is learning during this, teachers, parents and the students.
@@RugbyLOLs I understand. If it could be streamlined, it would be. But, it serves the needs of our kids, and is, therefore, worth the trouble. Thank you. I get the need for all of it.
That was amazing. I had two parents send me this and my wife nearly spit her wine across the table at the "did you just toot" comment? Not at all because that exact thing happened to our family. No.......not at all. #peopletoot #zoomnotmuted
OMG!!!! You guys did SUCH an amazing job 😍! I am a First Grade teacher and you made me 'deep belly' laugh non-stop! I am literally making my parents 'teacher gifts' as we speak and delivering them tomorrow because I know this is ridiculously hard for parents to juggle.🤪 But thank you for saying you appreciate us MORE now.❣️ That's always such a sweet thing to hear! Blessings!
Why am I crying? 😭This was funny!!!!! I mean, I did laugh. It's just such an emotional time. The hardest part is being away from my Kinders and 1st graders and every time they tell me they miss me on a google meet, or recorded messages and videos, and write notes, I want to hug them! 💔 I have two of my own at home too, and I know it's a lot of work for parents aw well. We got this! (Right? 😢)
I absolutely love and agree with this video. Thanks, ladies, for another great video. I smiled really big watching this trying not to disturb my 9 year old working on her Education Galaxy.
Awwww, how sweet! Elementary teacher here. Thanks for this. I appreciate telling us how you feel. But don't get so excited about school starting back in the fall. Many schools are already planning a delayed physical start with a probable virtual start online for an undetermined amount of time. Trust me. We'd rather be in the classrooms with the kids, but most schools are training teachers during the summer to manage their classroom online and certify in online classroom management programs that will manage student assignments online. If the virus doesn't stop spreading or we see a surge of cases in the fall, we may have to include parents as teachers appreciation week next year. Lol.
As a secondary school teacher, I appreciate this video so hard. Can't wait to be back in the classroom properly, seeing and speaking to the kids again, rather than this online rubbish.
Amen! Online tools are great for timely & more transparent parent communications about student lessons, learning status, etc. but could never replace the “magic” of a teacher!
As a retired teacher I can say that nobody understands how demanding the job is until they actually do it. Parents trying to teach one, two or three children at home, should try teaching a class with 35 children.

This makes me laugh in a good way.

My kids are grown now but I ALWAYS felt this way about teachers!!!!
It's like watching a biography about myself....
You two are the best! This got shared among our elementary staff, and I have to say that you nailed it! Thanks for such a hilarious and relatable video (from what I know my students' parents are going through)!
Homeschooling: Not just for moms anymore. I'm a dad and we feel the same frustrations and annoyances. And why isn't 12x9 the right answer? But, we love our kids and want to do it right. All of those different lesson sites you mentioned , we do most of them. Zearn, IXL, math playground, Vocab City, Google classroom, Remind, Kahn, Zoom, etc, etc. All the passwords you got to keep up with. One group of teachers use txt messaging, while another group sends messages thru email like its the 90s. This teacher uses this site and that teacher uses another one. Why can't it be streamlined? We still have a big blank spot on the fridge where the lunch menus were once posted. And since we can't go out to eat, the sink is constantly running over with dishes. The laundry load isn't quite what it was, maybe I should make them change clothes more often.
Thankfully, we don't have recorder practice.
I don't have the question in front of me, but if they're using distributive property to find sums of 12, it sounds like a perimeter question. 12x9 would be area. It's probably asking for fencing around the garden, not the area inside. So if you have 12 meters of fence, how many different pens can you make for the garden? 5 + 5 + 1 +1, 4 + 4 + 3 + 1, and so on.
@@zephyl7786 Ohhh, now I get it.
Teacher here (and parent), believe it or not, making contact via different mediums is NOT preferred by us whatsoever - it'd be much easier to see out one group message in one way, but parents either don't have a phone, internet access, check emails, won't join a class facebook/DOJO page, there are plenty of reasons why someone can't do something - I don't know your situation though.
But using multiple ways to make contact is completely necessary and more of a bother for us than the parents. Everyone is learning during this, teachers, parents and the students.
@@RugbyLOLs I understand. If it could be streamlined, it would be. But, it serves the needs of our kids, and is, therefore, worth the trouble. Thank you. I get the need for all of it.
James Abbott , I have seen plenty of dad videos.
Yup. That’s it! Spot on! 😩😂🤣👏🏻👏🏻
I really appreciate your style of teaching.
As a 5th grade teacher, I laughed because I can relate, and I want to thank you so much for making my job that much more worth it!
That was amazing. I had two parents send me this and my wife nearly spit her wine across the table at the "did you just toot" comment? Not at all because that exact thing happened to our family. No.......not at all.

OMG!!!! You guys did SUCH an amazing job 😍! I am a First Grade teacher and you made me 'deep belly' laugh non-stop! I am literally making my parents 'teacher gifts' as we speak and delivering them tomorrow because I know this is ridiculously hard for parents to juggle.🤪 But thank you for saying you appreciate us MORE now.❣️ That's always such a sweet thing to hear! Blessings!
OMG you two are a riot! Thank you, and Happy Mothers Day! - Ms. Goosman, 2017 Waldo County (Maine) Teacher of the Year
Why am I crying? 😭This was funny!!!!! I mean, I did laugh. It's just such an emotional time. The hardest part is being away from my Kinders and 1st graders and every time they tell me they miss me on a google meet, or recorded messages and videos, and write notes, I want to hug them! 💔 I have two of my own at home too, and I know it's a lot of work for parents aw well. We got this! (Right? 😢)
I absolutely love and agree with this video. Thanks, ladies, for another great video. I smiled really big watching this trying not to disturb my 9 year old working on her Education Galaxy.
Jesus Christ! This is HILARIOUS! 👌🏻 Good job, ladies!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 We need this!
You ladies are amazing! FAH!!! Thanks for making us laugh so hard!!!!
Thank you teachers💞
Awwww, how sweet! Elementary teacher here. Thanks for this. I appreciate telling us how you feel. But don't get so excited about school starting back in the fall. Many schools are already planning a delayed physical start with a probable virtual start online for an undetermined amount of time. Trust me. We'd rather be in the classrooms with the kids, but most schools are training teachers during the summer to manage their classroom online and certify in online classroom management programs that will manage student assignments online. If the virus doesn't stop spreading or we see a surge of cases in the fall, we may have to include parents as teachers appreciation week next year. Lol.
Oh my god, the goggles, the light saber....Viper. So good! English Teacher signing out.
Thanks you guys...feeling a little left out for Teacher Appreciation Week. However, you made my day!! ZOOMIMG away here in Florida!!
OMG AWESOME!!! COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING "PANTIES"!
Hilariously true!! But I'm having fun being home!
“I’m an arts major...” 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 #iRelateToThis...
😂 😂 😂
This video is hilarious! Even the kids are funny!
Kudos from the DMV - laughter is good medicine!
Thank you!
Love this sooo much, I relate! Thank you!
This came up on my FB memories, so glad we are past that insanity, so many mistakes made.

Hi 👋 dear, can I talk to you for a moment?
As a secondary school teacher, I appreciate this video so hard. Can't wait to be back in the classroom properly, seeing and speaking to the kids again, rather than this online rubbish.
Amen! Online tools are great for timely & more transparent parent communications about student lessons, learning status, etc. but could never replace the “magic” of a teacher!
Thank you 😊
