Rather than go into a tiresome explanation of why you should or shouldn’t join MTC, I’ll make a similar argument with my own personal experiences and hopefully you will find this helpful.
Reason you SHOULD join MTC
- · You spend a majority of your time with kids
- · You don’t go to work on the weekends
- · There is 0 traffic in Mississippi
- · Student-Faculty Basketball Games
- · Student-Faculty Volleyball Games
- · Assemblies
- · Showing students the steps to get into college is incredibly rewarding
- · Helping to run a middle school dance on a Friday night sounds like a good time
- · If you work really hard, you see incredible changes in your students
- · Telling your students how well they did on the MCT2 rivals any other good feeling
- · You will become a better a teacher
- · You have a lot of energy
- · You have a strong work ethic
- · Quitting has never been an option
- · Your golf game may improve due to all the flat fields to practice
- · The support through MTC is unbeatable
- · You could picture yourself living in a 3rd world country
- · Creating a school wide discipline policy sounds like something that may be fun
- · You can keep work when surrounded by inefficiency
- · You can thrive while being constantly tested by teenagers
- · You are HUMBLE
Reason you SHOULD NOT join MTC
- · You spend a majority of your time with kids
- · You have class every other weekend
- · You will likely feel isolated from friends and family
- · You are paid for 40 hours but work at least twice that
- · Quitting is EVER an option
- · You like to sleep in
- · You won’t have enough time to play golf
- · You are unsure you want to teach
- · You want to join something everyone knows about
- · You like to live around Target…or any other national chain outside of Wal-Mart and McDonald’s.
- · You like to tutor kids and figure that’s what teaching is like
