A teacher’s life is a busy one, to say the very least. From grading papers to discipline to dealing with a school’s administration, the life of a teacher is never done – and that’s within the four walls of the school itself! Throw in the demands of a family of any age, and life can be downright insurmountable.
With the difficulties of a modern work/life balance in mind, today on TeachHUB.com, frequent contributing writer Janelle Cox, herself a seasoned elementary school educator based in Upstate New York, takes a look at some teaching strategies that will help you be on your way to a more manageable life.
Janelle’s ideas include:
- Prioritize Your Time
- Get to Work Early and Stay Late
- Take Time for Yourself
- And More!
Janelle sums up today’s article like this: “Life is a struggle and it takes some practice to learn how to juggle it all. Begin by following these tips: Learn how to prioritize, learn to say no, take time for yourself, ask for help, and get up a few minutes earlier. By doing so, you will find that managing your day will get a little bit easier.”
