September Baby – NYC Teacher Abroad
https://nycteacherabroad.wordpress.com/2016/10/15/september-baby
October 15, 2016. October 15, 2016. September is always a whirlwind. The start of a new school year, meetings, lesson planning, room decorating, training sessions etc. As a child, I loved September because it signaled the start of school, cooler weather, and my birthday! Now I just tolerate September. When your birthday is in September, it never gets celebrated. School has just begun and no one has gotten around to asking, “When’s your birthday? 8220;So, when’s your birthday? And I’d say. And I couldn...

I Pass – NYC Teacher Abroad
https://nycteacherabroad.wordpress.com/2016/11/06/i-pass
November 6, 2016. November 8, 2016. I recently passed up two job opportunities. Here I am writing a blog all about how much I want to teach abroad and I’ve fudged-up two jobs! The first was with a job in Jakarta. I had all my paperwork in, final interview scheduled and a great recruiter rooting for me. The phone started to ring at the appointed time and I hesitated. The pay is very low, but there is a very low cost of living as well. No money would be left over to put into savings. How soon can you move?

On the 1st Day of Your New Job. August 23, 2016. November 8, 2016. On the 1st day of your new job:. You will be wearing a crisp, professional suit and stand out in a crowd of shorts and t-shirts. No biggie. It’s better to make a good 1st impression. You will need a Venti because you didn’t sleep the night before…preparing for said outfit. You will try to resist, without success, comparing everything to your last job. Your eyes will glaze over from information overload at some point. The Principal gave me...

My Daily NYC 5/13/16. November 13, 2016. November 16, 2016. App on my iPhone has become a sort of diary for me. Scrolling through you’ll see:. What teachers do all summer 7/30/16.
