I'm interested in becoming a Early Childhood Special Education or a K-2 CD teacher and I agree that sadly nowadays that they are not interested in becoming a teacher and CD stands for Communication Development for those who don't know what it is or might be confused and it's where kids can't talk and they get to be in that class.
it is sad :( unfortunately in many places today especially in america teachers are severely underpaid, so of course less people would be interested - even those who would be AMAZING at it. they simply can’t afford to. that’s why we need to prioritize and invest in our education system like in california, the nordic countries, etc. it attracts more teachers and better teachers
@@keepingupwithfifi469 yes! totally depends on the programs near you, they usually are very clearly state requirements of how many credits of each subject you need.
@@keepingupwithfifi469 for prek im pretty sure you do like early childhood development classes and child psychology and then very basic math reading science etc all of that while in college and ofc in high school in ga you need 4 math credits at least idk about other places though but yeah you need to be comfortable teaching and understanding the foundations and basics of math
It’s nice to watch a teacher’s day in the life from other parts of the world ❤ I’m a middle school teacher in the Philippines and I want to try teaching in kindergarten 🥹
I love finding your page as you’re in the thick of being a fairly new teacher. I ‘m a FTM at the age of 40 and want to become a teacher. I’m also prior military and appreciate your tips and strategies to deescalate situations. It feels like going into “war”. Your entire spirit and personality is calm. That’s great for what you do. I will be following along your journey. We need more teachers who care and want to do this instead of being negative or quitting. Thanks for sharing!
it’s really interesting to watch daycare/kindergarten workers from different countries! i study early childhood education in finland and seeing all the differences between our kindergarten culture is really fun. :)
ahh oh my gosh i'm so happy i found this channel!! i'm starting community college in a few weeks and i'll be studying childhood education. from there i plan to transfer to a university and hopefully become a kinder teacher like you! i'm so excited but also soso nervous. best wishes though from cali!!
I wake up at 4:30 but that’s because I have to be ready to go to work after dropping my middle schooler off at 6:45. I’m definitely going to try using slides next year! I hate having to pull tabs up every morning.
wow is so cute, I just have made some voluteers and I can totally agree that a day scheufule of kindergarten teacher must be filled with different activities, and while being kids having patient, and talk calmely
the second i heard you’re in florida my heart both sank and rose. i know that florida has the lowest pay for teachers in the country and for you to still pursue it with the passion and joy you do is SO inspiring. my mother is a first grade teacher but we live in california, where teachers get compensated much more fairly. i hope this doesn’t come across wrong i just mean to say this context really reflects your love for teaching so much brighter
I am almost finished with my associate degree to teach kindergarten. I love looking into your days and thank you for so many ideas. You have helped me prepare in so many ways so thank you again!
Wow how amazing .I truly salute all teachers who have a passion to teach . It's more than teaching so much more comes with being a teacher .Love your class so cutesy.
I want to attend my masters degree in Early Childhood Education, since I want to work as a 4k lead teacher. I’m truly grateful that I’ve found your channel.
My twin boys just started kindergarten and this was so helpful so I can help out there teacher and ways I can learn to do with them . This Chanel is so cute 😭!!
Thank you for this video! Did you major in Early Childhood Education? I would like to teach Pre-k or Kindergarten. In NC early childhood education if for birth-kindergarten and elementary education major is kindergarten-5th grade.
I teach 3 year olds and there is this one kid who NEVER stops crying, ALL day long, no matter what I do. Any tips on how to get her to love school and just forget about her mom while she's there?
Kindergarten teacher! I did one day as a kindergarten teacher. Our principal wanted us to swap classes for one day. In the faculty meeting, the principal announced that, and our kindgarten teacher immediately jumped up, before anyone else could make a claim, and said that she wanted my seventh grade class. I am male, large and a bit long in the tooth. She is tiny, just 5ft. She offered that the kindergarten class came with an assistant, so I should not panic, and they got to take naps, she added. I survived. She, on the other hand, was immediately surrounded by my 7th graders, many taller than she. To make matters worse, all my kids knew her. We were in a very small rural school, where all the kids go through all the grades together, and she had had my kids when they were in kindergarten. Basically, one teacher per grade. They were super excited to see their old teacher. She told me later that everyone had a good time, but she could not see over them now. She never said anything about the lesson plans that I left for her, I don't think much got done that day.
Ma'am, I'm from India and I have completed my Master's in English Literature. I am currently searching for teaching courses abroad to become a kindergarten teacher. Could you please suggest any courses, universities, or countries that are best for this field? I would appreciate any recommendations you have!
When I was in first grade I had a little temper tantrum and the teacher sent me to the principal office and I did get a paddling back then in elementary school in the 1970s😅.
Hey fellow teachers. If you need any resources for upcoming year I have set all my resources 1-7$ max. Everything under 7 $ on my tpt store. Please visit the store if you would like to buy any. 🥰 More things will be added.
I know im commenting on an old video, im new here and this video popped up on my feed. I want to become a Kindergarten teacher when im done with college. Which is around the corner! I have 2 years left and I start my residency next fall. Any tips for student teachers? Im a shy and nervous girly so when im in an environment im not used to, i kind of just stand around and watch. I try not to do this but I think my anxiety of doing something wrong skyrockets! As well as the person who is supervising me! Any tip would help! Thank you so much
Hi!! There is absolutely no problem with being shy! I remember when I started my internship it was very intimidating for me to speak up and share my own ideas. I really recommend building a strong relationship with your mentor teacher first and once you are comfortable to slowly start adding in your own ideas.
i want to be a early childhood degree but idk what age im getting my associates in psychology, this spring .i have time but idk seems so hard to choose how did you do it?
I was lucky enough to have PTA support and we were able to order things for projects based on this. Otherwise, supplies were out of pocket or I asked parents to donate for specific projects!!
I really like your video :) i was an elementary ed major and changed my mind 4 years in school. now i’m graduated and applying to teaching jobs w a provisional license lol 😅. i really love that you do breath work in the mornings and that’s something i wanted to do as well! do you enjoy working with kindergarten? and do you get a TA?
I found it helpful when you provided guidance on how teachers can deal with situations where students struggle to regulate their emotions or have difficulty with communication. Thank you! 10401
I teach everything because I am a kindergarten teacher. Depending on the school though, you could be departmentalized and able to only teach math and science for example if you teach 3-5th!
I hope you enjoy teaching 😊 by the way, Jesus Loves you, it’s relationship not religion, He is truly the Greatest Father and the Bestest Friend who always knows and wants what is best, you should get to know Him 😊❤
Not exactly related but, I just started as a daycare teacher. Boy! It's a mess. The teacher I'm partnered with has no order/control of theses 2 year olds. Yes, they are babies so it's going to be crazy but it's a mess.
In the US I was paid around 1700 per paycheck and this was biweekly. However, I opted for the 10 pay check option so it would be less if I had opted to get paid year round.
I wish these strategies worked. Nothing has worked for some of these kids in my school, and at this point, everyone including myself is so frustrated that sometimes it feels impossible to remain calm and "gentle". These kids are out of control and parents refuse to be held accountable. It wasn't like this 5-10 years ago.
I completely understand that. These strategies are just some things I have used to help with some situations I have encountered. It obviously doesn't work for every student.
hey! I love watching your videos, I want to be a pre-K teacher one day and I was wondering on what major did you got to succeed of being one?of course if you're comfortable on telling me that. I'm currently 16 years old going on 17 soon and just wondering if you did psychology or a different major? anyways, keep the good work since I know there's a lot of people not interested in being a teacher nowadays, hope to be like you one day!
I majored in Elementary Education. I went to FSU and they have a great combined degree program where I was also able to get my master's degree in curriculum and instruction. It allowed me to be certified to teach K-6!!
Its sad how people nowadays are not interested in being a teacher. I really appreciate you , you're inspiring people well !!!

I wish my kindergarten child could take naps. 8 hours of school 7:30-3:15… no naps. It’s a huge problem and makes me sad for my child .
It's crazy that there is no nap time, they are exhausted by the end of the day!!
I am going to school to be a Early Childhood Educator! This day in the life is soooo beneficial! Thank you so much!
Hows the schooling going

A day in this place will make me a normal person again

First year kinder teacher as well. What do you do for morning work? I did not do morning work this year, but want to do this next year.
Short activities that the kids can do on their own, I'm actually about to upload a video all about this!!!
I am interested in early childhood education but I also like working with high school students. So its hard to decide.
I think I’d go with early childhood but that’s just me
Try both!!!!

What are average salary levels for teachers in your area?
I have my master's degree and as a first year teacher was making around 46K before taxes.
My school starts at 7 20 am and I have to wake up at 6 am
I am trying to become a first grade teacher assistant
I'm not an early waker AT ALL.
What degree do you need for kindergarten teaching? I have an A.A. in child development and a B.A. in psychology.
You need your teaching certification which you get from passing the state testing (it is different in each state)
What degree did you take and how long it takes you to finish your degree?
I did a combined bachelors and masters degree in elementary education and instruction & curriculum. The program is 5 yrs long in total.
Can I just teach 2 subjects or do I have to teach everything?
For elementary schoolers, you most likely have to teach all subjects. Science, math, English, etc.
I teach everything because I am a kindergarten teacher. Depending on the school though, you could be departmentalized and able to only teach math and science for example if you teach 3-5th!
wow❤
u gotta go down slower on the shoulder press
I hope you enjoy teaching 😊 by the way, Jesus Loves you, it’s relationship not religion, He is truly the Greatest Father and the Bestest Friend who always knows and wants what is best, you should get to know Him 😊❤
