What advice would you give anyone who felt like giving up?
I'm sure I speak for many when I say I've felt like this several times in my relatively short (in my 4th year) teaching career. There are several things I'd try before throwing the towel in though. Talk to someone, it isn't always as bad as it seems! Try a new school, try a new approach, new strategies etc. Think of the pupils. They're the reason we do it, and often help me get through my darkest times. I often find a look through my Teaching Box (cards/letters/etc from pupils) helps me fight on another day too. Also, twitter in particular is FULL of the most supportive and amazing colleagues. They've helped me SO much. You've got this! Sum up our profession in 5 words. Challenging, rewarding, enriching, fulfilling and life changing (last one I'm counting as one!)
