I feel like teachers would be much happier if they got paid more. Yes it's not always about money, but when you are a working adult, you *need* money to sustain yourself. Especially when teachers spend so much time outside of school grading and planning, it's just unfair.
You're right it's nit about the money but how can we expect teachers to be the best for the students when they are not at the best (financially) which can cause a lot of problems
This was great. I recently aged out of the foster system and was a “troubled youth” if you know what I mean. I never cared about school and was generally very angry and mean. But it took one very special teacher to change my world! Now I’m entering college this fall (No saw it coming, lol) to become a teacher myself 🥰 teachers are THE most important people on the planet. Cannot wait until I can return the favor.
Congratulations!! Wish you all the best on your future endeavors!
That is so amazing! You are inspiring to so many! Thanks for all your support girl - wishing you the best of luck in college 💕
Hope college is going well. Congratulations on your choice!
That is so incredible! Your story and viewpoint will be so valuable in a classroom. Best of luck!
Teachers should make 100k all across the US. You guys are super heros without a cape.
Thanks! I'm okay with my pay not being as high as 100k if I could get respect from parents and students along with red tape and administration off my back.
And also in Europe
If teachers were paid high wages, the quality of education would improve drastically
All other careers I considered solely for the pay, but once I considered teaching, the pay meant nothing to me. I didn't care that I wouldn't make 6 figures. I found myself so excited about the thought of teaching and changing young lives for the better. I think I found my calling I haven't finished your vid yet but I know it will be helpful in seeing if this is right for me. ♡
Teaching is so much tougher than people realize!
So true . Knowing the subject is half the battle
"You don't become a teacher for the money"
So true!
First yr is worse not only are you at the bottom of the pay scale, you have the most amount of work, the students know your new so give you a hard time, and if you didn't start at the beginning of the yr you actually don't get the full pay, to top it off some states make you do even more work having to go through an induction program. Best advice for someone thinking of going into teaching. Start as a teacher's aid or as a substitute.
My first week and month I was cursed at, threatened, and had to deal with student drug use. Also I've been taking on a second and third job.
What’s the salary at your state?
I’m going to begin the journey of getting an elementary education degree this upcoming fall and I am so glad I stumbled upon this video! I had tossed around ideas for dozens of majors/careers over the past couple of years but none of them excited me as much as teaching, and I think it’s my calling!
You should substitute teach to see if it's for you.
I want to also
I genuinely thought I would be able to handle being a teacher. It really is a tough job. It can be rewarding, but the negative moments can crush you sometimes. It is very mentally taxing. It is also very mentally, physically, and emotionally demanding. I’m currently in my first placement, and it is soooo tough. You do not have a lot of time to yourself, and planning becomes your whole life. This video helped me realize that teaching is not for everyone, and I am part of that. It’s ok to change your mind.
Ok I came back, I finished my first placement. I’m now in my second semester and here to say that a lot of things changed for me. I had to separate external factors from the actual job, and I’m glad I did. My supervisor was one of the major problems for my mental health during that time, but it wasn’t the job itself. I actually started to enjoy teaching from the halfway point towards the end. Seriously stick with the first placement and see it through to the end. It you give it a good try, you might find that your opinions and feelings change like mine did.
This was really helpful! In my program, they constantly talk about self care and ways to prevent burn out and no matter what job you have, especially if you're constantly "on" like you said, self care is a MUST!!!! Thank you for sharing your tips
I agree!! Thanks so much jeanelle!
I think every single program in school should include a placement aspect. It’s so important to be able to go in there and ask all these questions and figure all this stuff out prior to going through all the schooling and becoming fully invested. I know so many people who went through their entire programs and then hated their jobs when they started
Another option is free/significantly cheaper education so that people don’t have to spend so much money just to realize it’s not for them. It creates situations where people literally cannot afford to go back to school in order to change their path
Yes, it is important to have a mental shut off valve to be able to step away. Find time for yourself and to find something that will help you to relax.Students do act differently when there is a full moon, so be prepared when the next one happens. It also helps when you have a supportive principal who never forgets how far he or she has come. A principal is a master teacher and not a master of teachers. Enjoy your week and take care.
I so agree! Thank you!
I love you 🎒😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is soooooo on point. It almost brought me to tears. Working all day.. Lord. Teaching gave me anxiety attacks.
I loved this, super helpful! I'd love to see a video all about behavior management, with strategies you've learned and tried out! ✨
I plan on making that soon!
This makes me think even harder about getting my alternative route to getting education certification!
I’d love to see a video on your experience getting your teaching license in MO! Tests you took, how you prepared, etc.💕
I think being a teacher is the best job in the world! And yes I agree to everything you say on this video!! I love it!
I love these videos! Even though I'm not even in high school yet, I'm seriously considering becoming a teacher and this just helps me see if I want to or not.
This video is a goldmine for teachers like me who are looking to switch careers. Your tips on avoiding these mistakes are invaluable. I'll be sharing this with my fellow educator friends who are considering a change. Keep up the fantastic work!
Hello, I am currently in college majoring in elementary education with a minor in special education and reading. I just recently joined your page and have loved watching your videos. I have learned so much! This video was definitely one of my favorites and was very beneficial for me as a future educator. Do you have any other advice to give to us future teachers? Anything will help! P.s. Thank you for being an amazing teacher! We need more people like you in this world!
Thank you for shedding light on the common mistakes teachers make when seeking jobs outside of education. It's crucial to understand these pitfalls to make a successful transition. Excellent advice!
I'm very happy that I have worked as a special education para before deciding to become a teacher. If you can take your state test and do the same I recomend substitute paraing before teaching to learn how to deal with kids one on one.
I am going to go into my first year of teaching here teaching sixth grade and this video has so many true and helpful talking points. My parent was initially not very supportive when I told them that I wanted to be a teacher and I was met with, “teachers don’t make that much” and “are you sure you would make a good teacher?” Well, that was nearly seven years ago and here I am now. I stuck with the plan and brushed off everyone who met me with reluctance. I’m very nervous for my first year and I know it’s going to be very hard, but I also know that I’m a strong person and I won’t back down no matter how challenging it gets. My biggest goal this year is that I can foster a warm and caring classroom environment where students and I alike will be able to grow from our mistakes
Very nice video. Finishing my 27th year our here in southern California, teaching 5th and/or 6th. I honestly believe I learned far more subbing for two years, than from an intense teacher program and two quarters of student teaching.
Completely agree with this. Substitute teaching is the most thankless job and taught me more about myself than anything else. Students are so honest and that's tough and terrific!
I’m a senior thinking about becoming a teacher but I’m really only interested in being a kindergarten teacher. Is there a possibility my school will require me to teach other grades?
Hey Madison, I'm a first year second grade teacher too. Thank you your insight
Boundaries is so important. Agreed!
this was so helpful!! i’m in high school and it’s always been my dream to go into teaching! love all your videos!!! they make me so excited to be a teacher myself 😊😊
So exciting! I’m sure you’ll make a great teacher!
Time, physical, and emotionally demanding; you are so right.
Would love a bid on behaviour management soon !
Thank you for your video and sharing the life of a teacher! Also, funds for teachers and students comes from decisions made from state legislators.
I'm an Iranian teacher and i wish best for you
I bet your kids love you. You're really an honest person. 💜 I'm praying to get into school to become a STEM teacher. The idea of living below my means to serve in a less-than lucrative career field has been heavy on my heart recently. Specifically in underprivileged areas. Growing up, I went to a school that seemed to have had unlimited resources, and other schools that had very little of anything for teachers and students!! Seeing and experiencing the difference it can make on both sides of the spectrum gives me enough drive to make a difference. Thanks for your honesty! You provide lots of wisdom as a teacher here.
I love that! You will definitely make a difference! Thank you for being here ❤️
First x this video was amazing. Have a wonderful rest of the day or night everyone x 💗
Thank you!
I’ve been at a private school my whole life and want to do education in private schools but I’m worried about the pay, because private school teachers earn less than public school. But also I want to make people happy and influence others lives, and I feel like at private school you get a deeper connection with your students, even if the pay isn’t as good.
Generally it's the opposite where I'm from! Maybe look up magnet schools.
Amazing video love you ❤️💕
I've always wanted to be a teacher, and I'm now a sophomore in highschool who is in the eductors rising program (meaning I get to go out into classrooms and work with kids) and here recently, I've been showing up drained. (Being a full time highschool student, in a musical, taking college classes, and band). So I just want to educate myself as much as I can and pick up a few tips on not showing up drained, etc.
3:56-4:00 there was a spider in the top right of the video I hope you got it afterwards! Sorry I got side tracked, this video helped out a ton thank you!
Something I would suggest is to get your foot through the door by being a lunch aide or work in sacc. This would give you an idea on how children behave, if you think this could be a job for you, etc.
This is rly good ik im still a kid but im already look to my future and u made me want to become it so much also here in ny we earn $31 per hour for a teacher
thank you for this! im not going to get myself into so much debt and spend 4 + years of my life on a degree, just to continue to struggle financially. I appreciate the honesty
Amazing.. Sooo helpful video.. Thanks!
These are some great tips. I loved your suggestion of getting to know people different from you. Understanding diversity and other cultures in so important to building an inclusive and loving classroom environment!
You are honesty such a role model to me and I hope in life that I become a person like you who is a queen and such a sweet heart also if you see this I hope you have a great day!! 🤪
You’re so kind thank you Lucy ❤️
I want to become a teacher, but I cant decide what grade I want to teach. I'm worried I'm not cut out to be a teacher, I'm worried I don't have the strength mentally and physically to do it
You can do anything you put your mind to
do you mean elementary, middle or high school u don’t know which to choose?
for sure i know every elementary grade school chooses what grade u are going to teach!! unless u apply before the school year starts and they have an opening in a certain grade u would like, then it’s ur choice!😊
I am realizing now I don’t have the strength to do this mentally or physically please make a wise decision before you decide. You really have to be a tough, extroverted person
@@neha7690 omg i’m graduating next semester with my associates moving on to uni but i guess i really do need to rethink. i have anxiety and i can be extrovert but there are days where i’m not well. and ofc being a teachers means no off days and always being on your A game. i don’t know if im fit :(
@@neha7690 are u a teacher?
Fantastic video. Keep going
Thank you!
The reason why I’m more interested teaching between nursing because I have more time with my kids especially in the summer break and you are like a star when your students see you they always greet you 🤣
Thank you so much for this
Thank you 😊
you have a nice aura around you! what's your favorite part about teaching? and what's your least favorite?
Loves this video! What are some books on behavior management?
I'm a first year teacher and I've been learning so much. Trying to get used to eveything. It's so crazy..
Teachers Aide- all their germs-sickness I’ve caught including Covid from school 😂👍❤️ lots of multi vitamins to stay healthy.
Hi Madison, great contents. Your absolutely right that teaching is a rewarding feeling at the end of the day whenever we know that we did the best and all the students still have smiles on their faces. You have mentioned instructor who trains school teachers, who may I talk to in applying for that kind of position? Also, will the school district allow training instructors to have additional jobs else where such as in education? By the way, your dogs are very adorable. I hope to find out what kind of dogs they are so I may purchase one for my little ones.
This was very helpful! In the future, maybe make the videos longer so us audience can make sure we can read the whole thing.
Hi from Uzbekistan 🇺🇿
The teachers I worked with during my 1st year were suck backstabbing back biting women, I ended up resigning. The teacher after me though, she got an undisclosed settlement and glowing letters of recommendation from the predators, then they all got fired! AlwY talk to your union before just quitting.
I’m a teacher in North Carolina. There is no union.
Love you too ❤❤❤
Just a note.. You can be an EXCELLENT and AMAZING teacher and still be the best wife and mother. HARD but possible 😁
☘ Awesome! 🙂👏🏻🌻🌿 The best
Yeah it's a profession where u do/think of school stuffs 24/7 even weekends and summer vacation. And still doesn't paid enough.
In our country, govt school teacher (T1) gets paid more or less 500 usd per month. And non govt school teacher gets paid more or less 200 usd.
Teachers often spend some of their salary to buy things for school and some rewards for the students if they did good in class. So teachers are very thankful if someone donates teaching materials to them.
U really need to have a part time job besides teaching to support your living if u want to eat well everyday. What more if u have a family to support, right?
Most places here doesn't even have teaching aid that helps them in preparing for school. So they doing all the works solo. It's not just about teaching but also the research and stuff. And now the govt starts to put mandatory masteral for the teachers (idk if it applies to all but I've read it on reliable source)
My mom is a teacher. And yes, we're struggling especially rn but I think she loves her job so much and she's doing great at it.
Being a child of a teacher isn't easy too, idk if it's just me and my sibs but we didn't get a helping hand from them when it comes to projects and assignments coz they're always busy. They're free time is just a part of summer (2 months of vacation but half a month of organizing students' records and 1 month for preparing for another school yr) so it's like 2 weeks vacation for them. They're really a busy bee. I hope they'll get paid enough so they don't need to get another job. It's so stressful.
Edit: this is for an elementary school teacher (idk about junior and senior high teachers, I kinda know college teachers are paid higher than this coz I have an uncle teaching at a University)
What about teaching WHILE going to school?
Example wouod be me teaching private paid online classes and me taking online courses for something else. Seems like a daunting task but I feel it could be possible.
Hello. Please, Could you help me with these: What career should I study in order to become a Spanish teacher in United States? Bachelor in education or there is something specific for Spanish lessons? Thanks in advance for the information you could give me.
Hi, in the video you said you were going to link the books about behavior but I don't see the links. Is there any way you can add those? Or say the name of the ones that you recommend? Thanks!
It take about 5 years to get it figured out, but they change what you teach, and have to start kind of over again.
Hi Madison! I loved your video!🤗 I was wondering which books you recommended for kiddo behavioral management?
I've never read books. So not sure what to tell you, I always get complimented by other teacher of my classroom management but not by since I don't put up with kids mess. When my colleagues sub for me they see how good my class is. What works for one person doesn't work for another and what might work for you doesn't mean it for for your admin. If it's your first yr or two they know your knew and will rough you up, it's not your management style its the kids being kids.
I’m in my second year of BA in family studies and human development for teachers college after. I’m so scared I’m not in the right path. How can I get more experience being in a new city? I’m scared I’m not prepared enough or ready
YOu might want to look at Masters in TESOL(Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)
Thank you for your tips, I found them so useful. 🤞teachers wages go up.
my sister wants to be a teacher... hope this helps her :)))
Hello Madison! I am a PSEO student and have committed to being a special education teacher. I was wondering if you could give me your book recommendations for behavior management as you mentioned in the video. I appreciate the things you have shared.
Hate to tell you this, but MOST jobs take out taxes and benefit costs from the paycheck. It’s not just teachers.
Hi 🙋🏻♀️ I’m looking for the books on behavior management, can you direct me to the links please?
I don't know I've worked three cubical jobs and each of them I had supervisors breathing down my neck so bad I couldn't stop to breath at all.
The last one I left back in november because my boss threatened to fire me over and over and also complained about me taking my breaks which I sorely needed.
I'm from Missouri
What are the books on behavioral issues?
Do not make a decision to go after one year; give it some time.
What collage did you go to and what were some of the struggles there
#11 I wish I knew that you have to have thick skin when dealing with parents.
True!!
*Me trying to focus* also me:AWW THE DOG OMG ITS SO ADORABLE
Graduating with my bachelors in education this december, starting a credentialing and M.ed program shortly after! Thanks for the tips!
All my professors in my liberal studies program have told students how the first year will be hard.
Hello there, your video was so insightful.
I am a new resident of Alberta, considering getting a job in teaching after setting down.
Please can you help with where I can get information on the teacher's retirement or pension.
Thanks a lot.
How long did it take you to become a teacher
Between retirement, health insurance, taxes, and union dues I don't even see almost half of my paycheck
I live in Italy and my son is in his 3 grade. He has 30 hours of school. He has 5 diffetent teachers. One for english, one for scienze and math. One for italian , music , art, story. Onother for religion and another geografy.
That sounds like he’s in a good school and the curriculum must be great.
💘 💘 💘
I'm a junior high school teacher and i've been teaching english as a foreign language fo 12 years . I feel really exausted 😢😢😢l love teaching but the working conditions are awful .the laws set by the government are against teachers and totally for the favour of pupils 😢😢
GOOD NIGHT MISS MADISON. I WORK IN MY ACADEMY TEACHING ENGLISH & CASTELLANO. CAN I WORK IN USA TEACHING ENGLISH & CASTELLANO.
In terms of making less money, do a passive income side hustle that wont require much time.
I have no idea how to save money. God help us
I feel bad for American teachers ahaha in Australia they are pretty well paid!
Pretty much every major country pays their teacher better and treats them as professionals and society at large has more respect for them. Not the US sadly no surprise the US ranks the lowest among those countries when it comes to student results. We are backwards but not surprise since we still don't use the metric system.
really? i’m about to graduate so thanks for the heads up! haha i might consider moving there
i’m just scared of the bugs that everyone talks about lol
I'm forma Argentina and let me tell you here the teachers aren't paid as much as they deserve. Here the teacher has to paid for everything and also a person without studies earn more
Would you say you’re introverted or extroverted?!
You can be a teacher as either one.
Most teachers here in Barbados get $4,500.00 a month.
I’m in grad school to get my teaching license. It’s my first semester and I’m already looking these things up. I’m scared I’m not cut out for it. I struggle with depression, and I’m afraid I can’t be present every day like I should because I am low energy a lot of time. Im not always extroverted, and need time to not talk. I also want a job where I don’t have to put a smile on constantly and talk. Im studying to teach k-3. Anyone here able to tell me what to do? HELP.
Maybe guidance counselor or literacy coach?
Maybe you should be a high school teacher instead. Older students don't expect teachers to be cheerful all the time, so maybe you won't have the pressure of putting on a smile.
It’s just not fair after all what teachers been through to get a degree and they didn’t paid much. They should pay teachers that they deserved because they mold children’s mind and children is our future.
I live in Italy and here the teachers doesnt earn well. Instead in Germany, Finland they ear enough
I wrote a song to honor teachers and would share it with you.
We say that Teachers. Need handsome salary Many times people say Fairness for all
ahhh did you guys see that on the top right corner?? 3:58 is that a spider lol
3:58 on the right side let’s not ignore the spider
I’m a steamfitter why was this recommended to me good vid tho
