Advice For First Year Teachers

So you did everything you needed to do in order to become a teacher. 

You got your B.A. Degree from a University.

You passed those wonderful test that show you know your subject matter.

You completed your CPR and other trainings. 

You put your hours in and finished your Student Teaching.

You took the additional classes and got your Teaching Credential.  

You jumped through all of those hoops and now you finally get your own class.

There were so many obstacles in your way but you made it happen.  

Now that you get ready to embark on the next part of your journey I wanted to give you advice that I wish I knew when I first started teaching. 

And if you have been in this career for any amount of time I am sure you will agree with the lessons that I learned.  

Here they are:

1. Be prepared to be tired.

2. There is a huge learning curve.

3. It is all about classroom management.
