#6 you are NOT their friends! You should be friendly, but you are NOT your students' friend. You are their teacher, and they are your students. Friends rip on each other, they goof off with each other, they hang out, etc. All things teachers should NOT do with their students! You are an authority figure!

I'd hate to be in your class. Being a hardline authoritarian would get you nowhere in my school excepted hated by all students.

how is being friendly = being authoritarian?

Thomas, kids have to face reality, eventually. School may be the first place they learn discipline, and they're going to have to learn it eventually, so why not get it now?

Thomas Ellenwood : nobody said authoritarian, but you have to be respected by your students otherwise your class will be a complete chaos, and nobody even the students themselves will be happy with you. You are not a dictator nor a friend but an EDUCATOR.

@I_was_wrong ask Harry Wong about that. Be friendly, but you are NOT their friend. Friends hang out. Friends connect on social media. Friends text, etc.
I just graduated and I’m in the process of landing my first teaching position. Thanks for the great tips bro!

Hey Elliott how is your new job going? Also if you don’t mind me asking what are good jobs to take or internships to take for you can land a teaching job after college?
Excellent call on the assumptions! That was a big one for me because I taught 4th graders. Surely they can line up correctly because they've been doing it for years, right? Wrong!!!

I learned to not make assumptions the hard way my first year. So many lessons went south because I assumed they knew how to do certain things.

Yes, that was a good one!
Oh man, I cringe to think of the mistakes I made this past year. My biggest problem was definitely consistency with classroom management because I would try something and then see it wasn't working and just up and change it. I was a hot mess! But, the kids learned what they needed to and thought I was the best anyway!😆 These tips are spot on!

As long as we keep learning from our mistakes, right? Have a geat summer!
I'm a 30 year veteran and you hit it out of the ballpark! I would also add that a lot of teachers don't know how to adjust the energy level of their students. If they're climbing the walls, learn how to get them back in their desks. If they're all asleep, learn how to get their attention so they wake up.
Great tips! Thank you!
Yes! Thank you!!!
I found this list so helpful, especially the tip to plan the lesson around the standard, not the other way around. Pinterest is so overwhelming, it's easy to get sucked into the "cute" lessons and forget the main objective! This new first grade teacher thanks you!
Ive been teaching for over 20 years. Great advice for veterans and newbies.
I've just started a new KZread channel, and even though I've been teaching for forever, I've forgotten some of thos stuff. Thanks big guy. I will be watching.
We are making similar videos, back to back. Wow!! Great advice!
I find not being consistent might be somewhat unavoidable during first-year teaching. I remember when I first started last September, I had my class management plan all set up in my head. What I did not account for was my students. I first tried reflection sheets, which they did not take seriously. Next I tried the three-strike rule, until they figured out they could get away with being disruptive twice before getting in trouble. Detentions worked some of the time, but only if I had a serious conversation with my students to find out the root of the problem. By the end of February, I finally figured out what worked well for me, and planned on sticking to it to the end of the year, until COVID shut down our schools. Do not get discouraged if your class management doesn't work out the first time. You need to figure out what works best for you, so that you CAN be consistent in the future!

BIG, big thank you for your advice, for you taking time out of your day, your job, your time to relax to help out some comrades, some fellow teachers. Peace and love, brother.

Completely agree with this.
Thank you for your tips...
Best video ever for teaching. Thanks 🌞
Thank you for your really good explanations, Kyle. I am male student teacher - starting in three days... It’s really great finding another male teacher’s take on the process. Thanks for the warnings blended with positivity.
Thank you😊
You nailed it!
Noted.. Thanks!! 😅👌
Super helpful!
thank you!!!
Mistake #2: Most new teachers are really forced to be on many committees. It is forced upon them by the principal. Or to volunteer to give inservice presentations. We can't win with the school administration doesn't help a teacher succeed.

Pick a committee that is easy and does not take a lot of work such as volunteering for big events: harvest festival etc...don't meet as much as other committees. Usually only once a month
Both thumbs UP! BELL RUNG!
Great tips! Thanks from this new teacher (2017-2018).

How’d the first year go? I hope you choose to stick it out-it’s a rewarding profession!
If I’ve already made these mistakes, and I’m in week 6. Can my year be salvaged???
Very helpful video. Keep up the good job. Just subscribed to your channel.
I'm cringing at myself this year. 😅
Excellent points- especially about streamlining your lessons. 👍🏼

Consistent - 🌞
Do you know what's funny a teacher is teaching another teacher. I honestly just think it's cool
I'm definitely doing too much but I got a mortgage to pay. I am a full time 2nd grade teacher and also work 2 (12hour) days on the weekends.
These seem....obvious. All great points!!!!
Can you do a video on retirement, pension, the 403b
I'm a substitute teacher and I was so frustrated at the beginning because students kept sitting down on the floor to do their work. It turned out schools now allow students to do that for comfort. Back in my days this was unthinkable!

When all consistent procedures are not optimal.

I guess I do pretty well because I only did 1 of these mistakes:doing too much

Doing too much: not me. TOTALLY not me. Going home at the ring of the bell committee. Joking 😜

I think you forgot buying things for the students. I bought them crayons and they broke them within seconds. How do you think I felt? Do you think I will ever buy them crayons again?
I think I made all of these mistakes my first year...😅😅

The number one mistake all new teachers make is becoming a teacher. If you're already past that mistake and you want to shorten your career or make your life at work as miserable as possible, have a better idea than your administrator at a staff meeting.
A teacher AND a vegan? :D SUBSCRIBE
Speak up 😜
One, I agree with not doing too much; you have enough to do every year, not just first year. But you lose credibility with your look I'm cool backward hat. Take off your hat in the classroom, you're an adult. Don't be obsessed with standards. Teach valuable skills; problem-solving and collaboration.
