As I'm switching careers this week I've had to say g'bye to loads of students and classes and am pretty surprised at how gutted I am.
I know I'm making the right decision, I've been a teacher long enough and teaching adults was no way as rewarding as teaching kids but I guess I'm still going to miss my students.

I just broke the news and a 65 year old dude from Vietnam looked like he was gonna cry, he just hugged me, aww.

Things I'll miss:

cursive writing on the whiteboards
cake day (every thursday)
making my students do pressups when they forget to do their homework
locking the door on late students and getting them to sing a song (in english) to come in


Things I'm lookin fwd to:

wearing trainers all day
wearing sports clothes
being able to do classes to music
having time to sleep

I wish I could do both jobs but working so much has been taking its toll (I now have three nipples) and am looking forward to a fresh new start.

Anyone else switched careers? Anyone else shitting themselves?
