Retired Teachers Chatboard
Re: If you had to do it all over again...
Posted by: Sunrise on 10/26/09
I retired five years ago. I see, hear, and read how things have
changed in that short period of time. Things changed in the time
I was teaching/not always for the better. Things mentioned, in
previous posts, happen in all fields and professions. Yes, it is
sad.
Would I do it over again? YES! I loved teaching, loved seeing
the kids grow, catch on, see how they grew up and had their
children in class! Loved teaching!
Didn't always love everything we were expected to do. Didn't
like the way money was spent. Didn't like the politics...
All jobs/professions have such things going on... Sad statement
for the human race.
Hope I made a difference in the lives of the students I taught!
I would do it again...and my retirement benefits are just fine.
