It is on days like today ... which happen once a year .... that I am so grateful I became a Math Tutor with my own business.
Today ... August 7th ... LISD teachers went back to school ... they started 5 days of Teacher Inservice. August 14th .... next Monday ... they will be back at it for another school year!!
Now .... don't get me wrong! I LOVE Teaching!!! I absolutely LOVE teaching. But I am pretty happy with my decision to run my own business. I am learning SO MUCH about so many different aspects of Mathematics education here in Texas. I am learning about Homeschoolers and Unschoolers and Private Schoolers and Middle Schoolers and High Schoolers and Community Collegers ....
I am learning about all different kinds of curriculums and testing.
I am also learning about what it takes to make an educational DVD and sell it to the public ... I am learning a lot!!
I am REALLY GLAD to not be in a teacher inservice right now!!
I have also noticed lately that the Dallas Morning News seems to be making a special effort to bring education to the forefront. I like seeing that. They are publishing more articles on TAKS and on school starting dates and requesting articles from teachers specifically! I think that is great and plan to try to add my $.02 to the general knowledge!!
I need to write more in this BLOG ... I do have lots to say, so I need to get back at it!!
I will!!
