Why I love Teachers Pay Teachers
Teachers Pay Teachers has given my teaching style new vitality. I was very comfortable in what I was doing, year to year, class to class. My students did well, and I was comfortable. I was satisfied. Then Teachers Pay Teachers came along and piqued my interest.
It gave me a reason to create new products, to think , to innovate, to design. It not only gave me a reason, but also a reward (money). This came at a time when all of my colleagues were looking for a second job, and our frozen salaries were actually moving backward because of increasing health care premiums.
I have become a better teacher--constantly looking for new methods and refining old ones. I have become a better collaborator--sharing new lessons and ideas with my colleagues as I create them. I am no longer satisfied--I'm hungry --hungry for new ideas. This is the time of innovation and creation. I've never felt so creative in my life.
I thank Teachers Pay Teachers for that.
Sincerely ,
The Crazy English Teacher
