Advice for New Teachers Linky Party!!


After spending a lot of time helping my daughter prepare for her classroom, and talking to my student teacher from last year who just got her first teaching job I started thinking about all the advice I give out to new teachers and was wondering what other great advice other experienced teachers would give them! So I thought this would make a GREAT topic for my very first Linky Party! 

So its time to dig back into your past and think about what you wish someone would have told you when you first started out teaching! Give us your best advice from your experiences!

Mine is - 
Say what you mean and mean what you say. 
Be consistent
Set aside at least one evening during the week to not do anything school related at all.

Can't wait to see what advice all you great teachers have for those who are new to our wonderful profession!!

  5. Wow, thank you for hosting this Linky party. I am an Australian teaaching student who has 4 weeks left of classroom practice, before I officially become a 'new teacher'. I cannot wait to read everyone's advice:) I love your advice about taking a night off a week, that makes lots of sense! Thanks so much again. Have a lovely week ahead.
