I love the fact that you say, "I'm not a professional.." in the middle of your closing...Girl, you ARE a professional. Just because it's your first year, doesn't discount things. Love your vibe as always....waving hello from Sactown...

Being a maths teacher really appeals to me over any job. It makes me happy to see someone saying something positive about the job for once! My mum is a teacher and loves it but everyone else online says it sucks

I love that your school allows for "office" hours in a sense. That's really a good way to give students a college experience early. It's also just good in general for questions.

Hi Katy,
Last year was my first year teaching math, chemistry and engineering in a public school. I’ve been doing other teaching and training about 90% of my career since I started tutoring at Foothill College in 1988. You’re an inspiration to me. Never doubt that a new person can bring great things to a profession! This year I introduced “math meetings, ” in which all our math (and eventually science) teachers got together weekly to share, compare, complain and coach each other. This was super helpful for me, but even our Ph.D. senior teacher said he learned a lot from it.

One way you really encourage me is just by producing content on your channel. I definitely want to do that too.

Way to go!!

Im going to be a first year math high school teacher this Fall too! So glad I found your channel! :)

[MrMalding]

definitely one of the better videos explaining what im getting into after my degree. Thanks for making and uploading it

You’re so awesome! I’m a HS Algebra 1/Algebra Honors teacher in Illinois. Love your classroom, it’s SO aesthetic .

[alyssadoyle]

Oh my goodness I have those exact same colors in my head too for those math courses...crazy!!

Up until recently, I've been studying engineering - mostly because I'm good at it and I wanted to be It took me four years to finally admit I hate it! IT'S. SO. BORING. But strangely, I love pure maths (still not entirely sure why lol). I went to a Tim Minchin concert and he said if you're in your 20s and don't know what to do with your life, go become a teacher. Now I'm switching up my degree to become a secondary school maths teacher and I'm feeling SO much better about life! I still have to finish some engineering papers, but instead of watching lectures about the manufacturing process of vinyl chloride and getting depressed af that that's my future, I get hyped and relieved that that's NOT my future 😅 PS there aren't many high school teachers on youtube so I'm glad to have found your channel!

Oh yes. I have to color coordinate EVERYTHING with what I decided my courses were 😅

[donniesorrow]

Oh my gosh. You seriously simplified this for me. I'm going to be a first year middle grades science teacher while going through an MAT program, and it's overwhelming right now. Thank you for showing the "how-to" on this video. A lot of people will just talk about what to do and why, but not actually SHOW how to do something.

Very great video. Love your passion and enthusiasm. I am a principal at a high school and yea I can tell that I have the least number of teachers comparing to previous years. Wish I can have some teachers like you in my school; maybe come and spend a vacation here on an island in Micronesia. I hope someone can read this and at least to think about it. I am recruiting for teachers now; Science, Math, Language Arts, Social Studies, Mechanic, Carpentry, Agriculture, Food & Nutrition, Sewing, Child Development.

Love the set up of the classroom! You did an amzing job!!

[yessicac]

This was definitely very beneficial, thank you for taking the time to help those who are learning!

[scoobyist]

I love watching your videos! I am a middle school math teacher in GA and your videos are very inspiring!

[kelsiebug]

Thank you for being so caring, I am switching majors because my paths changed in my life but I used to be an education major. Here in Arizona it’s so hard to find good and dedicated teachers, they are out there but few and far between in my area!!

[sabaelias]

Great video, thank you! I don’t see many high school teachers do this kind of planning videos, especially math. Please do more 😊

[artisticanna]

First video I'm watching of yours and already in love

[huntersmith]

I so feel your color of your classes! I teach 5 preps of science- my physical science is orange, biology is green, chemistry is yellow, physics is blue, and earth science is red. That’s the way I see it in my head!!

[KathyKellogg]

Just found your channel and I am loving your vids girl!!
