This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Get tired? No, get a sense of sorrow in professional failure and apathy when someone's level of ability is fundamentally misaligned to the class.m, hell yes.

I'm an adult educator, so while not a fitness instructor, I teach adults life skills, including health and nutrition.

We aren't paid to be individual tutors, but the fact is that some learners need one on one training, or additional time, or a slower pace, or a totally customised syllabus and resource package for their needs.

There's nothing tiring about this.

But there's also nothing we can do. You learn quickly in this job to say "I recommend a more entry level class, or starting with a some home learning" or you burn out trying to juggle 25 different levels of need in a class of 25.
