Good afternoon, sweet school it looks small in comparison to the large schools I have done SUPPLY TEACHING IN! I am use to LARGE CLASSES AND PLENTY TO DO. Thanks for connecting and sharing. I need help I applied to Ark schools for a primary teaching assistant vacancy in London, England and I am being under appreciated by someone and I do not know if this employment will work out? I would love to teach at your school I receive good vibes from you. Gracefully yours.

I have loads of friends in the UK and they think Americans work way too much, can’t take sick days, etc. I 100% agree but was always curious to compare apples to apples, teachers to teachers. I work 8:05-3:35 and it seems like UK teachers (in the day in the life vlogs anyway) work WAY harder than I do. I’m glad you were able to take some time off when you were unwell. That’s something we couldn’t do in the US. Congrats on your little boy and on your decision to leave teaching. Sounds like it was a tough choice.

Hi! I’ve found this video really interesting. I am a Secondary School Student and will soon be choosing my GCSEs. I have strongly considered a teaching as my first choice of Career so far, wanting to teach at a UK Secondary School, but I have heard a lot of negatives on the job and obviously the pay is less than ideal, but even in school, I am already a mentor and I enjoy working with younger pupils and am determined that this is the career I want to pursuit, I was wondering if you had any advice for someone in my position. Also, I would probably teach Geography or MFL so I was wondering which other GCSE subjects would be smart to take on top of the necessary ones. Thank you!

Have a look at the National Curriculum which is available online from the uk gov website. Then you will see what the content you’d be teaching is.

Hello Many thanks for your lovely video. I’m a teacher myself, I would like to start a side job along side my teaching career. I’m a highly creative person and love displaying unique displays/ decorations for classrooms. Could you advise me on how to build an additional career based on my skills? Thank you in advance.
I used social media and I was very lucky meeting Rachel on there. I guess my advice would be to do it and put yourself out there. It was double the work for a while though so something to think about :) good luck!
Do you think I should open an Instagram page? Apologies for asking you many questions.
@@dilankaya9997 If that’s the platform you think you can show what you want to do on there then sure. :)
Thanks for sharing! I'm studying to be a teacher and it's really hard , it's rewarding, but sometimes it's necessary to take a rest. Hugs and blessings to your lovely family from Mexico , I hope you keep making these kind of videos. 💙 My question is...are you going to work in another thing? Or full- time mom ? Sorry for my bad English. Also can you give us some tips about teaching in the UK , because I want to move there. Thanks 😊
Hello, it is a challenging career I don’t think people appreciate the challenges until the do it or know someone who does. I am working on a different job part time which I’ll explain in my next video a little bit. Urm I’m not sure what is different because I don’t know what schools are like in Mexico to be honest. Have a look at the National Curriculum which is available online from the uk gov website. Then you will see what the content you’d be teaching is. If you watch some of my vlogs on here that might also help you see the day to day differences. Hope that helps and good luck with your teaching career!
@@ayyo6997 hey! Are you from there?
@@DisplayLady Thank you so much!! 😊💙
Thanks for the update, glad all is going well for you and excited to hear about life after teaching! I took a break when I had my babies and I never regret it. Its great you have a part time job doing what is clearly your passion! 😁
Wow… the state of teaching if they’ve lost you! You were so hardworking and committed to it. Maybe a return in the future when your boy is older? All the best :)
Aww thank you! Never say never but we are happy right now. I definitely didn’t want to feel like I wasn’t doing my best and I don’t think I could have done being a mum and a teacher justice right now :)
Good to hear from you, I was always thinking what you were up to now, thanks for updating.
Awww thank you 🥰 no problem!
Thank you for your honesty. Yes, teaching can consume a large part of a person's life, and it can be hard to shut off from the profession once you arrive home from a long day. It is all about finding a proper balance and protecting your peace. It is about setting boundaries and realizing that the work will always be there and you have to find ways to manage the load. Take care.
Yes I totally agree but I just knew myself and I knew I would feel like I wasn’t doing a good job at teaching or being a mum if I tired to do both :)
