Substitute teaching before being a real teacher?
However, in many ways I’m tired of some of the things going on as being a substitute. Some of the staff I guess don’t really support sub teachers as professionals.
Here is what really gets me.I have another teacher tell me I’m not strict enough in front of the entire class!! A student asked me where he should go and I said, ask your last teacher since you are not on my role. The teacher basically embarrassed me in front on the entire class by saying, “you need to be more strict”. That’s fine to confront me alone.. I’m still learning and will always learn as being a teacher. However, that was unprofessional to do that in front of the class. They become rather rowdy after that comment.
I think I’m going to tutor instead of sub until student teaching!

Don’t worry about the other teacher, he or she has no idea what it feels like to walk into something as complex as a school (which can take years to understand the ins and outs) when you know nothing about it and act like the leader. You’ll be fine. And nothing that you do as a substitute reflexes what you’ll be as a teacher- it’s completely different. As a real teacher, you will create your own atmosphere of learning, and you’ll have a discipline technique that will compliment that atmosphere.
