Yes. Make sure you learn those techniques for de-escalating situations and maintaining control of a room full of unruly kids.

Beware of the other teachers, they're often worse at bullying than the kids.

Love the kids, not the paycheck. I'm sure that goes without being said....but it doesn't, really. I've seen so many teachers do it for the paycheck and retirement and other benefits (which baffles me, because they really don't make that much money); and have treated the kids like crap.

Listen to your kids in the classroom. Make sure that you go slow enough for them ALL to "get" what you are teaching; yet have some more advanced work available for those who have already comprehended the lesson(s)

Give them plenty of time to run, fidget, and talk. Younger kids really need outside time and time to be noisy and fidgety. And that "should be" okay. Older kids need someone to talk to. Give them that time

Regardless of what you are told, you have the right to scrutinize a curriculum.
Put it forward but teach objectionable and critical thinking skills. Teach them how to think, not what to think.

And learn the signs of child abuse. My wife is a teacher, and her reporting of abuse has saved both children's and mothers' lives. Many times teachers are the only ones who can make a difference.

Whenever you get frustrated with a student, remind yourself that they might be acting out bc THEYโ€™RE frustrated but donโ€™t know how to properly articulate how they feel.

Compliment/encourage the effort, not the outcome.

Donโ€™t let other teachers influence your mood.

Donโ€™t be afraid to stand up to administrators/go against the grain.

It's not enough to be an expert in a give subject, you must learn to breath passion into your lessons and instill that passion in your students.
