When did you join Teachers Pay Teachers as a Seller? What made you
decide to become a seller?
I joined
TPT as a seller a few years ago (can't remember the exact year) to dabble in
the emerging e-commerce world. I had a product
that I had been selling in hard copy and TPT gave me the opportunity to try out
the web!
One piece of advice you can give to a beginning teacher & one piece
for a veteran teacher:
My
biggest piece of advice for a beginning teacher is to get your classroom
management down. Find a teacher you
admire and whose room runs the way you would want yours to run. Then, study her every move, and ask tons of
questions. Modify it to fit you, and
when you hear yourself say, "The kids weren't doing what they were supposed
to today," stand back and look for the flaws in your routine or procedures
for the day. Modify until things run
smoothly.
Something unique about you both as a teacher and outside of the
classroom:
I started
my career as a 1/2 bilingual classroom teacher.
I didn't realize until much later that I started with one of the hardest
teaching assignments. The benefit was
that everything since has felt easier!
Each
summer for the past 8 years, a friend and I have traveled to different Spanish
speaking countries to spend a few weeks at language school to unwind from the
school year and work on our Spanish.
