Quote Eric But here is what I noticed for myself. Right now I am teaching about 14 hours a week which is ridiculously low. So low in fact that i can't get in the groove. |
Wow! There's no way I'd get anything done. I'm a stare-down-the-barrel kinda guy. If I have 70 things to do, I'll get them all done. If I only have 5 things to do, I will get absolutely nothing done and waste my entire day.
I used to work 46 hours a week in the states and so a little more now, but it works for me. Clive mentioned somewhere else maybe about taking a lot of the stress home but I think you just need to shut it off. When I'm teaching or planning, I can take a vacation from 'home' and when I'm home, I leave the 'office' at the office.
It will all get done.
I also think there is a bit of talent involved in what we do. I'm in no way going for teacher of the year, but I like to think that I'm good at what I do, and that's why I like it. So, maybe it's easier for me to teach more classes than the norm. NOT, that I want any more than I have now.
