Hey guys, sorry I haven't been on here in a long time. I have been doing my resit placement and just been completely focused on it. Long story short, I didn't pass my first assessment yesterday. I do still have another opportunity to pass but it's going to be sooo tough and my confidence has been well and truly knocked. I just don't think I can do it anymore. I can't stand the anxiety every day, the late nights, the stress, the feeling of drowning every time a lesson doesn't go to plan. It has well and truly broken me and I think (still thinking about it all) that it's now time to call it quits on teaching. I just don't think it's a match for me. It's obviously heartbreaking because I've been dreaming of this since I was a kid and I've been working towards this for the past 10 years more or less (my school subjects were chosen based on what would serve me well as a teacher).
Anyway, I've got to try and laugh or I'll cry (again). Any new career suggestions?
Lots of love, e <3
