What's it like starting out a career in teaching right now? CBS4 interviewed three young educators who are graduating from DU and will be in Colorado classrooms soon.
– Lauren Jaffee, Troy Fangmeir and Charlotte Nicholsen are all getting ready to graduate from the University of Denver this June. They are eager to mold young minds.CBS4’s Karen Leigh sat down with all of them to talk about the most exciting thing about starting their careers in teaching at a time when there’s a decrease nationwide in the number of students getting into teaching programs.“I don’t think a lot of jobs give you time to interact with people the way you get to interact with teaching.
I asked them to look back over what teachers, students and parents have all been through with the pandemic and wanted them to share their thoughts on all of it.Jaffee said “For me to go back and say I would’ve done this differently is so hard because in that time in that mindset you didn’t know what kind of future was going to happen.”
Nicholsen said “I think that all of those protests over masks really took away from academics. Our focus was more on ‘I’m right — you’re wrong’ than ‘We’re doing this for the kids, and what’s going to help them.’ My hope is that everyone is respectful of everyone’s choices. We are all individual selves and I teach my students that it’s you’re decision — your life.”
Fangmeir said “On the one hand, I can totally see why some people are leaving teaching. There are a lot of pressures … ways to make more money. … We live in an unstable society.” “But for me, the reason I teach is a desire to work with the students…and that’s not going to change.”“I think that every teacher has done their best. I don’t think I’ve met a teacher at my school or anywhere else where they didn’t give it their all,” Jaffee said.
