Burnout, too many students in classroom, too few trained assistants, too few opportunities for network/brainstorming time with other teachers, difficult to get in break or duty-free lunch

Teach because you love kids
Science Teacher (Current Employee) – Folsom, CA – April 18, 2015
I've had the pleasure of working with far more great teachers than poor ones, especially in this district. The students and parents care about education. For the most part, principals also care about the students more than they care about micro managing teachers.
