New Teacher Dilemma: Should I Quit?

New Teacher Dilemma: Should I Quit? 

Are you a new teacher feeling overwhelmed and questioning if you should throw in the towel? Take a deep breath and know that you're not alone. The first year of teaching can be daunting and difficult, but with the right support and resources, you can navigate this exciting journey successfully.

Look for help: In your school you are not the first teacher who has contemplated if they should quit.  Believe it or not many teachers have this feeling. Reach out to a trusted mentor, supervisor or colleague, share your thoughts and ask for help and support

Resources are available: The online world is ripe with support groups, resources and suggestions for how to cross over this hard patch. Helping New Teachers and many other sites can support you.

New things are hard: This statement is likely not what you want to hear, especially when all you are thinking about is the student who is difficult and the hours and hours it takes to prepare well thought out and interesting lessons. Coaches and mentors should be sharing with you that the beginning was hard for them too. ALL beginnings - especially those that lead to meaningful results - have challenges. If you quit now, you might never have the opportunity to experience the joy and meaning  that a career in teaching can lead to.
