I went to Queens college for my BA
Queens College for my master's teaching.

I have mixed emotions about teaching. There are days that I love it and days that I just come home and cry.

I am also out of a job right now. Since I graduated, I can not seem to secure a FT teaching job unless I want to work in Brooklyn or the Bronx.

I have poured so much time and effort into teaching. I really cared about my job and the kids, but it always went unnoticed. It is a thankless job.

You really have to have enough confidence in yourself and be self-motivated to do well I think.

The City *****!!!



yes this is very true!!! I am currently working now in the south bronx, hopefully i can myself to queens....

i went to queens college for my ba in elem ed and sociology

I agree with some of the teachers...I can't stand teaching...I work in Brooklyn (good old Board of Ed) teaching first grade...I dread each day, but I try to make the most of it...I am spending my entire Sunday making lesson plans : (

OMG so did BunnyBride!!! How wild is that? I almost auditioned for that school but ended up spending $$$$$$ for a conservatory!

I'm sad some of you girls don't like teaching... I wish it worked out for you! I love it and there are days I don't wanna get up for it!! I'm dreading tomorrow...but once I get there I'm fine. I guess I just like sleeping in too much!

And I'm also a teacher questioning my career path. It's A LOT HARDER than most people realize. But there are some really fantastic moments that keep me going every day.
