i'm gonna be starting my 6th year of teaching this september and i still enjoy my xareer as much as when i made this post
just helped like 60 odd students in summer school pass their exams and still get a thrill from it
I'm going on 3 years of working in International Programs and Services, processing the new students' immigration documents and advising them on their visa status, and it honestly is still super fun to me and cool to meet people from all around the world. I recently got promoted to a new position within my department as well - so that's super cool!

Do you teach English in a Spanish School then? I bet you have visted some amazing places in spain!! So jelous.
I have days. I love it at times. My job can be very intense and high pressured. If things don't go to plan it can be very hard to take. Especially if you have invested time and energy into making sure everything has been over compensated for.

i did 3 years in a town near Cadiz in the south, was in a combined primary/high school.
i did 1 year in a private academy in Barcelona
i've just done 1 year in a private academy near Malaga and I'm going to do another year there as still a lot to go and see.
just taught for a month at a summer camp at the Uni of Liverpool too teaching Spanish and Italians.
it's been great, literally doing the career i always wanted and training at it, but getting to travel at the same time. each place i do i get the chance to go and see whats around andneighbouring towns/cities/mountains, like when i return in late september i'm aiming to finally tick off Grenada and Cordoba/Murcia and possibly Valencia in 2024.

That sounds amazing. I wish i learnt a skill that i could use when travelling!!
I bet it's so rewarding too when the kids get things right!!

very, i just had my B1 students exam results come through - all pass except one (who i didnt put forward to do exam tbf). always satisfying!!
I'm an associate director of a company that manages shopping centres. I do the accounts side of a specific few centres and carry out training for surveyors and accountants alike.
I don't mind the job and I really enjoy the more complex stuff and presenting/training - every job has it's boring bits!
bella ciao
I left my old job in May due to evil comments made about my terminally ill mum, the manager's making me do the same amount of work as 3/4 other people with 2 hours less to do it in and just the place generally going downhill!
I applied on a whim for a job as a Shift Leader in a local arcade, ended up getting the job but it wasn't enough hours. Fast forward to a week after that and they made me an offer I couldn't refuse and honestly this is the best job I have. I enjoy it a lot and I actually get the recognition I deserve.

its mad how people stay in the same job despite hating it/it being horrible.
like the old saying goes, if you died tomorrow they'd replace you within a week so sod them and think of yourself like they do
