[English] Does anyone know of English teachers still doing classroom teaching at AGE 70?!!!!!!!

[Jill Strong]

Hi everyone,

Is ours a profession that we  can continue in until we are 70? It’s very hard, intense, complex work.

Some of you will have very good superannuation. I haven’t and many other women won’t. I imagine a lot of teachers on our modest pay for long hours would be hoping to top up our superannuation with the OAP.

We will have to keep working to pay the increasing medical bills – and the vet’s bills!

Regards

Jill

Subject: [English] Suitable texts for Year 12 ESL English

Hello all,
Does anyone have suggestions for appropriate texts that would suit any of the following themes at a Year 12 level and would be accessible to ESL students?

• Identity and Belonging
• Power and Influence
• Change and Resistance
• Conflict and Resolution
• Good and Evil
• Truth and Fiction

Would love your input - wondering if your picks are the same as mine!
Rosie
