Thank you for this video. I’m starting in August .

Found your video looking for tips for subbing. I'm going to start subbing this fall and I am excited! Then I saw you have videos on endo and a laparoscopic surgery. I have endo too and had a surgery. I'm SO sorry you also have endo. It sucks.....

Great tips!

Very helpful ideas! Just a quick question. When you pick a Mystery item to clean up and you give a prize, is it a sticker that you talked about earlier in the video or do you have other prizes that you use?

@oliviaoutman

It depends! Sometimes teachers have prizes that they want you to give out. Other times I used my stickers, or came in with other small things. The option is totally up to you!

How you award the stickers? At the end of the day or at the end of a subject? Do you cut them apart when you get them on a page?

It really is just dependent upon the situation and the kids! I normally wait until the end of the day, if I feel like it will be a distraction. I also don’t cut the page, I just take the sticker off and let the student decide if they want to stick it to a paper, their coat, their folder, etc.

I've been doing this for 5 years.

@johnshafer7214 nice! Middle school can be really tough, so I’m glad someone like you exists to help with those ages! I’d say that’s my most challenging age to work with!

I don't miss subbing at all. The pay sucked. You worked almost as much as the teachers. And the students didn't respect you. Being a teacher is so much better now. (Oh and incentives don't work on high schoolers)

I’m definitely excited to see the difference between subbing and teaching. Respect is something I feel like many kids are struggling with towards any authority figures right now. I feel like this is honestly because not a lot of adults show respect to each other anymore😢 I never have tried incentives with high schoolers, I just tried really hard to work on relationships!

@@oliviaoutman My number 1 struggle was being too friendly with the students. I guess I was scared they would hate me. I was afraid to be stern. My next year, that is my focus. Any recommendations?

@user-nk5bw8ml4z it absolutely varies from kid to kid and classroom to classroom! With high school, I always laid my expectations out at the beginning of class and let them know what the teacher wanted from them as well. If students chose to not get their work done, that was on them and they could deal with the homework later! I think connecting with the kids and being friendly, allows them to gain respect for you and learn to listen. It took some time (and didn’t work with every student), but I noticed that more kids would approach me or stay around me as the year progressed. It doesn’t all happen in a day! I also tried to remember my experience in high school and the subs I loved vs the ones that were not my fav! Lastly, I wasn’t afraid to write down names, or call the office, if it came down to it. There is a fine line between being nice and being a pushover :)
