  Case: Getting burnt out easily
I have about one year left until I graduate and become a teacher. I have heard so many stories about how new teachers get so overwhelmed and burnt out so early on in the year or throughout their teaching careers. How can I make sure that this doesn't happen? How can I manage my personal and teacher life to ensure a balanced approach?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Some of the most at-risk learners' educational performance is impacted by the fact that teachers are more likely to quit when they work in high-poverty schools. Everybody is affected when teachers lack the assistance they require because education is a crucial component of a child's life. Take a break from it when you start to experience teacher burnout. Leave your work at work, including grade-related concerns, curriculum preparation, permission slips for field trips, email correspondence with parents, report card completion, etc.
Try this instead, get a piece of paper, and list everything that must be performed over the next few days. After you've finished making your list, pick the top three items. These are the things that have to get done to make tomorrow's day more comfortable. After you have done this, prioritize your needs for self-care! We must be our best to help our students be their best selves. Make your favorite meal, read a book you have wanted to read, watch a new movie, or relax. Do whatever you need to do to recharge yourself. Practice self-love and know that you are not alone. Reach out to a friend or supportive team member and discuss your feelings because keeping them bottled up does no good.
