- I thought my career as a teacher was over when I was put on an Performance Improvement Plan.
- Receiving support and constructive feedback made me a better teacher.
- I kept my job and got off of the PIP but eventually left teaching behind.
After completing my first year of teaching 8th-grade English at a private school, I was happy to have survived. Teaching is hard; teaching 105 adolescents is even harder.
