Some great advice on this thread and honestly feels like such a relief to known I’m not alone in experiencing this - was starting to question my skills as an educator and getting so depressed. #teaching #TeachersDay2021
Is anyone else’s class really struggling? Simple things like following instructions, listening to others without interrupting, being independent learners and playing nicely with each other. Is this the result of the pandemic? Please tell me I’m not the only one 😩 advice welcome!
Great fun to contribute to this for @vittleslondon - and a few snippets from my journey from chowhound to writing for 💰 ✍️ 😃
Today's newsletter is about how one semi-anonymous poster on the UK Chowhound boards in 2007/2008 changed the direction of London food writing, and how @demarionunn has been ripping him off ever since vittles.substack.com/p/an-or…
