I did the same. Should’ve been a vet. I would tell my younger self to not waste my time being a teacher. Stuck making horrendous pay in an already diminishing career.
Stay in the Army, it is less likely to get you shot.
I’d say avoid hiding who I am in the classroom. Yes keep it professional but my first like three or four years as a teacher I basically just taught and has no like me decorations in my classroom. Then when I started to being in like my lego sets and just some posters/decorations kids seemed so much more comfortable in my classroom and wanted to connect. Now my classroom is filled with lots of stuff that truly makes my classroom me and also uplifting decorations to my students with motivational posters etc…
Skip being an RN and teacher, be an archaeological historian instead.
Is it problematic to say my ex-wife? I also lost a lot of time and money, although she definitely helped me finish school.
Enjoy the private school experience but buy back the years right away!!!
I’m 4 years from where I should be able to retire and found out it will take $200,000 to pay back those 6 years!!!
Needless to say, I’ll have to teach 10 more years versus just 4.
