After my son was born, I decided to stay home for a few years; I decided it was time for me to get back to work. But instead of going back to daycare job, I decided to become a substitute teacher and teach whenever I wanted.

I love my freedom; I love the fact that I can work when I want to and don't have a load of responsibilities. But most of all I enjoy being around children, it makes me happy. In last three years, I came across many people most of whom always asked the same question, every one of them wanted to know how to be a teacher like me. Through our local church, I started to hold a few seminars teaching people all about substitute teaching jobs. Recently my husband is the one who suggested that I should write a book about it and this way I can help many more than just a handful I meet via those seminars. So this book is the direct result of that wonderful advice my loving husband gave me and I think, if this book can help just one person become a teacher then I will consider my book is a success. That was my life story in a nutshell, but I know you are not interested in my life story but your own.

Book excerpt: **A New York Times Bestseller** “May be the most revealing depiction of the American contemporary classroom that we have to date." —Garret Keizer, The New York Times Book Review Bestselling author Nicholson Baker, in pursuit of the realities of American public education, signed up as a substitute teacher in a Maine public school district. In 2014, after a brief orientation course and a few fingerprinting sessions, Nicholson Baker became an on-call substitute teacher in a Maine public school district. He awoke to the dispatcher’s five-forty a.m. phone call and headed to one of several nearby schools; when he got there, he did his best to follow lesson plans and help his students get something done. What emerges from Baker’s experience is a complex, often touching deconstruction of public schooling in America: children swamped with overdue assignments, overwhelmed by the marvels and distractions of social media and educational technology, and staff who weary themselves trying to teach in step with an often outmoded or overly ambitious standard curriculum. In Baker’s hands, the inner life of the classroom is examined anew—mundane worksheets, recess time-outs, surprise nosebleeds, rebellions, griefs, jealousies, minor triumphs, kindergarten show-and-tell, daily lessons on everything from geology to metal tech to the Holocaust—as he and his pupils struggle to find ways to get through the day. Baker is one of the most inventive and remarkable writers of our time, and Substitute, filled with humor, honesty, and empathy, may be his most impressive work of nonfiction yet.

Download or read book Get a Teaching Job Now written by Mary C. Clement and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There ARE jobs for teachers, and this step-by-step guide will help college students and career changers find those jobs and get them. Whether you seek a job as a substitute teacher or full-time pre-school, elementary, middle, or high school teacher, the strategies needed to win a job are here. The job market has changed, and teachers no longer get jobs just by just student teaching in a school. Today's candidates need to use online search engines to find openings, and then produce a cover letter, resume, and portfolio that showcases their training. Interviewing is much more than answering the question, "Tell me about yourself." Teacher candidates must master the art of the behavior-based interview to sell their experience and expertise to employers. When a candidate's Facebook page can make or break hiring, everything a potential new teacher does is important.
Download or read book The Substitute Teachers Survival Manual written by Jonathan P. Coron and published by Hog Press. This book was released on 2019-06-03 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual was recommended to you/provided for you or purchased out of interest. Professors of education may also find this manual interesting as relatively few of them have had experience with substitute teaching. It is one of the valuable resources that "subs" can use. This was designed to help make a potentially very difficult job perhaps a lot easier. It is designed to help you not only survive but to feel confident and in relatively full control when you are working with students for perhaps the first time. For best results, read through this entire manual hopefully before your first substitute teaching session.Most of the information provided in this manual is geared to middle school/high school but a great deal of it is applicable to younger populations. Ideally, the substitute teacher can work with almost any age of student, but the ideal is not common. Most substitutes tend to work with just the population they feel most comfortable with and this is often the best thing to do unless the reader has a great need for salary and is willing to take whatever comes around for subbing opportunities.
Download or read book High School Substitute Teacher s Guide written by Cherise Kelley and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You're a high school substitute? Are you crazy? We were so mean to them!" This is a common reaction when I tell people what I do, but I love substitute teaching at the high school level. I started substitute teaching in 1989, fresh out of college. I was looking for a way to support myself while I was in graduate school. A friend told me, "You have a bachelor's degree, so you can be a substitute teacher." In writing this book, I hope to be as good a friend for you as he was for me. This book explains not only how to get a high school substitute teaching job, but also how to do the job so well that it will be rewarding in and of itself. If you know any college graduates who are unemployed, tell them about this book. It might help them support themselves in the meantime, while they seek employment in their fields. Being an excellent substitute can also open the door to a regular full-time teaching position. Up until the advent of the Internet, most books for substitute teachers consisted largely of worksheets the substitute could photocopy and hand out to students, in the event the regular teacher hadn't left enough work to fill the whole class period. Today, you can instantly find and project one of a million free Internet worksheets. Heck, 99% of today's high school students have phones capable of finding these worksheets. You won't find worksheets in this book. High school students are too smart to do a substitute's ungraded busy work anyway. Today's high school students crave human interaction. I've seen them get more excited about a classroom discussion than about watching a movie. Times have changed, and I have remained a successful high school substitute teacher by embracing the changing times. Give my book a read and let me show you how to be a good high school substitute teacher who enjoys the job.
