11. Dress
professionally.You may be surprised at
how some teachers dress…I know I was.When I think back on my school days, I picture my teachers in dresses
(the women…not the men), and the men dressed in slacks, a dress shirt, and a
tie.Some wore a sport coat or
suit.In most schools today, teachers
are dressed in everything from sweat pants, jeans (some with holes in them!),
sweatshirts, flip flops, short skirts, tennis shoes, and T-shirts.It is also ironic that the teachers that
dress the worst are also the teachers who complain about how the students
dress, or complain about how teachers are not treated like professionals (or
both).Be a teacher that dresses
professionally!It may be difficult to
do with your salary, but do the best you can.
