It’s kitty ✨

There is no worse combo in this world than my mom and my wife jfc

Also those people really suck

I have definitely had partners who refused to apologize … but telling them directly my expectation and them going to therapy definitely helped 🤦‍♀️

I feel like being the mom in “The Summer I turned pretty” would be unbearable, but I do envy the mom friendships 🥹

Decided yesterday I need to see a therapist. Teaching hard and family stuff is harder.

Interesting!!!

What topics did you choose?

They’re gonna mess with the wrong city and Chicago may be the one.

Every one of my best friends is going through a mental health crisis and it’s gonna make me have one too.

Sometimes, I miss teaching in nowhere, Indiana, because it was much easier to impress and sell them on a new experience. City kids have been everywhere and seen everything, and already speak multiple languages. Somethings just don’t hit the same.

Alors je me demande si le problème c'est plutôt les parents….parcequ’on se donne à fond pour attirer les élèves dans le programme #fle #langchat

J’enseigne le français dans deux écoles secondaires. L’une compte environ 50 % moins d’élèves que l’autre. Hier, nous avions une soirée de rencontre avec les parents: dans la 1ère école, seulement 3 parents sont venus, alors que dans l’autre j’en ai eu ~20.

Do you ever find yourself in a group of people you know well who are laughing and having a lot of banter, but you feel like an outsider, even if it's in your own head? This happened to me last night, and I cried on the way home, wondering if others feel the same or if I'm overtired.

Short week but jam-packed.

Why does open house give me anxiety? I need to conquer my fear of parents.😬

I hate Starbucks, but I love their apple drinks in the fall. Now that they’ve discontinued that, it should be easier for me not to give them my business.

Now the hunt for a coffee shop who has it .

I feel like promoting just kills my love for my job every year

My schools WL programs are so competitive… it’s exhausting really

I hate packing my lunch 🌝

Cette année, zéro motivation pour la rentrée … je préfère profiter des vacances jusqu’à la dernière seconde 🥲

I guess I'm just talking this out to prepare myself for our team meeting mentally

Nor do I care how you get there as long as students enjoy the class enough to continue

I feel like it's not asking too much to use the same exams when teaching the same courses, especially when I am not married to anything except proficiency

I never realized how hard it is to work on a team because I've always been lucky enough to have such top-tier colleagues that now that I have one who doesn't.… idk what to do 🥲

Got my first prescription glasses ever today 🤓

Damn, why couldn’t the new school year wait for me to grow out my bad haircut first

Damn, it's always tiktok ain't it

merci d’avoir répondu à tous mes questions 🤪

Which podcast is responsible for all these men walking with weighted vests these days

I caved and bought #PaulMcCartney tickets in Chicago 🥰 it will be my first big concert 🙌

I really like the Language Gym. Although I'm not sure how to best use it at the intermediate levels. Which books do you use?
