Work Life Balance
Balance is achieved with Muliple Interests
Elementary School Teacher - (City withheld for privacy), North Carolina, United States
Teachers suffer from allowing their job consume them, to the detriment of their family and health.

My advice is to make sure you have some other life activities that counter your classroom side...keep learning new things and going on new adventures. You will be a better teacher and the children will benefit from your fresh stories and happier demeanor.

I also believe in seeking and appreciating local resources....live in the place you're in!
