Received offers from PNC and UBS. Same position. Same benefits. Purely seeking opinions on the companies. Previous experience at EJ. Left to get away from outside sales nature and isolation.

Spoke w partners at my firm about expanding branches over the next 5-10 yrs. Part of the focus will be to buy books but also bringing new advisors. Would you make the adivsor sign a noncompete?

Everyone has a different perspective on this but would love to hear yours. Someone has debt ranging say 4-5% interest rates. Do you attack debt more then investing to move towards a debt free life or do you go after investments since they return historically above that then paying down closer towards retirement. I know the latter looks better on paper but what about the psychological factors of being debt free and the guaranteed return on interest savings.

I started doing the 90 min waking rule for when to drink coffee and I’m wondering if it’s all fluff, thoughts? I use to look forward to it.

Has anyone gone through the project management course offered by Google on Coursera? Would you recommend?

I've always been interested in seeing if I'd like management roles (specifically senior level/lead roles), but wondering how relevant and worthy a PM cert would be overall. TYIA!

How common are career changes / pivots? Can’t help but feel behind now that I’m considering a change and makes me feel alone. Not sure how to go about making the change (finance to marketing)

Anyone teaching an 11th Lit course with an EOC Test? How are you preparing students by reviewing for the writing section (Informational, Argumentative, Narrative)?

Anyone familiar with the Read180 program? Curious what people think who’ve tried it.

Today, my entire class stated they do not feel comfortable working with the school's instructional coach. How can I, as a teacher, encourage them to open up and receive helpful strategies and help with their homework if they are not comfortable? Any suggestions? I don't have time to assist everyone.

I teach middle school reading intervention, but I am noticing a high amount of students at our school do not have any phonemic awareness. What are you best ways to combat this?

I can not teach a phonics class and I already pull small groups. Any resources? Wanting to plan over the summer for next year.

What is THE BEST professional development you've ever been to? (Conference? District workshop? Etc.)

When beginning a piece of literature, I first help the kids access the relevant culture. I have used web quests, but I have found that the kids researching their choice of topics and creating Slides containing information and pics results in more students participating. Recently they researched heraldry for the Medieval Era and reproduced either a family crest that they found or created their own personal crest. Anyone have other activities they use?

Hi All! I am teaching English 4 for the first time this fall, and I’m just wondering what ideas y’all have for starting off. My class will be TINY (less than 5) so I want it to be super-engaging. All Black and Brown students. Help!

I got an email last night from a 7th-grade parent because her son said I mentioned the words "male privilege" in class, and she is very concerned about how that is related to ELA (she said "reading"), and she is concerned about this being taught in public schools. To be clear, I didn't do a lesson on this subject but we did discuss rights versus privileges. I've had multiple parents contact the school/get upset with me because of things like his. It's exhausting... Thoughts?

I’m a 7th grade ELA teacher in Texas!

What are pet peeves you have as a teacher you have let go of? For me it is subject verb agreement.

I'm looking for the best go-to resources to supplement middle school ELA and make it more relevant and accessible to all learners.

Here's your save-my-sanity question of the day. Our classes end-- for the year-- in 3 weeks. We also will have testing and finals. Do you think "1984" + misc dystopia will hold Sophomore interest?

What are some projects you’ve had students do to show the influence of classical works in a genre?

My district is thinking about purchasing HMH into Literature for our reading and writing curriculum. We currently use Lucy Calkins Reading and Writing Workshop and are not happy with it. Does anyone have experience with HMH? Pros? Cons? Any info is appreciated! Thank you!
