Needed this. I’ve been struggling with panic attacks and knew it was an issue when it finally happened in front of my 5th graders. They had no idea what I was going through and I kept it together, but it was definitely triggering and makes me anxious now. Essential oils really help me on my wrists and just a tad under my nose 💓
I love watching these videos that you make! They bring me so much joy, and I appreciate how open you are about your personal mental health. As a teacher myself, I struggle with anxiety and teach 5th grade, so seeing other people talk about is so healing! Love what you do, you're doing amazing sweetie. 💓
My honest comment, get out of teaching as soon as you can, you will thank me for the rest of your life. Seriously, get out, it’s not worth it. There a reason why more than 50% off teachers who go into it quit within their first five years.
Teaching with anxiety....relatable and so glad you're talking about it in your video! So invaluable for teachers to hear about this and normalize these conversations. Thank you so much for sharing!
I really appreciate this!!! I have really bad anxiety/social anxiety and I worried I wouldn't be good at my job (I'm a counselor). This year I had to get up in front of middle school classes and give lessons on mental health. It was so nerve wracking and I struggled a lot. I still do! (Today we did yoga and I was anxious all night last night). But just accepting that you have that anxiety and even telling the kids that and being honest can make them realize how normal it is. Also, promoting therapy and mental health is wonderful!
I just love you. Your mental health and self care speeches are so real and just resonate so much. Thank you for making all your viewers feel loved and appreciated. You are appreciated so much. 🤗❤️
You are so sweet I am studying to be a teacher one day I been talking alot of exams and it's been so hard and challenging I am wondering how to put myself together all the time when I cant but you always just have that magic touch and thank you for that good luck
Could you make a separate video on how you deal with bad behavior or disrespectful students, who don’t want to communicate or be a part of a team. I do have only one, but he gives me so much pain 😬😬 Just, what’s your strategy when it comes to dealing with challenging students? Or if there’s already a video, I’ll be glad to watch it (:
Hi Mrs Brittany, thank you for sharing about your anxiety and glad you found ways to keep it in check. I didn't have anxiety until I entered college where it's mostly the coursework as the main trigger. What has helped me is journaling, take a deep breath, focus on something soothing, and music. You might want try to journaling and putting essential oils to calm your nerves.
thank you sm for talking about anxiety! my anxiety disorder is what gives me the most doubts about my ability to be a good teacher one day. your tips were so helpful so thank you! for anyone with similar struggles: whenever i get down on myself about it, i try to think of myself as a kid and how nice it would've been to have a teacher who rly understood anxiety and the importance of mental health. i try to see it as a strength in teaching bc it makes me more empathetic to students going through similar things!
You're so cute. Lately, I've been feeling it and I've just been wearing jeans, a school T-shirt and a ponytail. I'm so ready for summer. I love my kids, but I'm tired and so are my kids. lol #Middleschoolgang!
You inspire me to be the best version of myself each and everyday. and you are absolutely stunning, inspiring, and have such a warm heart. I'm so glad I found you- you help me keep going every single day!!
Ms. Brittany, I have been working on a few short stories and poems as well as a chapter for my novel. I love how your sixth grade class is a creative writing class where your students write fiction stories and they have recently started developing their characters. Your seventh grade and eighth grade students are writing essays, but I acknowledge how important it is for all writing assignments to spark creativity and wonder in students as they conjure magic through words. I love you
I cracked up when you said "when you see a teacher, hug a teacher... wait no." HAHAHHAHAHHAHA But seriously, I appreciate all the teachers. This year has been so crazy!!! Thank you for making a difference in your student's lives
I just accepted a middle school theatre position! I am so nervous and excited. I will be transitioning from High school to middle school theatre. Any advice on the transition? I love you and your videos!
As a teacher, I love watching your videos, it makes me feel so happy, warm and relaxing. I also appreciate you being you!! Happy Teaching Week//Day ❤️❤️
HI! I am currently an elementary school teacher. I have thought about switching to middle, but am nervous about classroom management. I feel like you have a similar demeanor to me and was wondering how you handle your classroom management for middle? Would love a video if possible!
i never comment but i have to say i have been following you for about 2 years now and i’ve looked up to you throughout my teaching journey 🤍 i’m almost done with getting my certification to teach english, so thank you for being so inspiring! 🌼
I have just accepted my offer to teachers college! I have a bit of social anxiety but I am working on it everyday and my dream is to be an amazing teacher and make a difference in the lives of the kiddos
Still going strong! My school year ends June 25th. My middle school has a ways to go. I’ll make sure I document some parts of it before the year ends ✨
@@serenity9926 Correct. All public schools in my state are following the state-wide calendar that ends June 25th. We start back up for PD the last week of August.
Can make a video about the differences of teaching middle school and high school? I am almost done with my first semester of teaching 6th grade ELA and I will be teaching 9th and 11th graders in the fall. It would be fun to hear what you like about each grade and what can be difficult. Thanks!!
Thank you so much! I really believe in talking with students one on one at the end of class or outside human to human. I think it's important for them to know we aren't angry with them, but instead here to work WITH them to change their behavior to create a more mindful environment. I also do a lot of classroom management/team building at the beginning of the year or quarter to create a "team" within the classroom so that the students can work together on creating this mindful space that everyone can thrive in
@@fivefootoneteacher love it!!! Yes, building a bond is important. Are there any students who just won’t cooperate? I had a few of those but talked to them one on one. :)
@@fivefootoneteacher how do help them out when they dont speak English I have a students who only speaks French and they have been acting up dont know what to do about it it's been so stressful
Hi Brittany, I really appreciate your videos. I'm thinking of starting a new career as a 6th or 7th grade English teacher. I always loved school, English especially, and did well in it. To this day, I'm an avid reader of all kinds of books and I love to write. Also I've always been inclined towards children, teaching them, helping them with problems, etc. and some of my favorite teachers, who I remember to this day, were my English teachers. I'm still not sure if it's the right career path for me. Any advice from you? Or anyone else in the comments. Thank you so much.
Awesome video! How is it teaching multiple grade levels? Is it more difficult? I was just asked by my principal to teach a new class of 7 & 8 graders so I wanted to ask for your perspective! Thanks!
@@fivefootoneteacher true!! You should include 5-minutes-outfit-time in your videos, cause they’re soo cool. And I honestly love copying other teachers’ outfits 😂😂
I’m finishing my student teaching and have been offered a permanent spot with 8th graders or a temporary spot at the high school and idk how to decide which age group will be best for me!
Nice consistent uploads! Thanks for uploading! 2 tips - can you put happier music? And if you have time (i cannot imagine how busy you are!) Can you make playlists on specific video themes? You are an amazing human being and have a great day!
That's awesome you support your friend! Do you have a link to her stuff? And i did not mean to come across as rude as i truly enjoy your videos and thank you for responding!

You make me so excited to be a teacher and have my own classroom! 3 more years to go and I'll graduate with a teaching certificate!
so excited for you!
Same! I have 2 years left, and I cant wait to be in a classroom soon! I hope your course is going well and that you're enjoying it x
Good luck!

I like the clear pair you have on most of the video. How long have you worn glasses and how strong is your prescription?
Thanks! I’ve been wearing glasses for a long time - since I was a student.
Hi! Love the video ❤️ At the end of the year do you have to take everything down and out of your classroom?
Thank you! And I don’t believe so, but we will see!
Awesome video! How is it teaching multiple grade levels? Is it more difficult? I was just asked by my principal to teach a new class of 7 & 8 graders so I wanted to ask for your perspective! Thanks!
Thank you! It’s honestly tough because it’s a lot of preparing and planning, BUT I also enjoy it because it differentiates my day!
I can totally relate with you hahahaha thanks for sharing!!
God Bless fyp and Amen🙏💕And love your videos so much and God Bless your friends TikTok and your family and love you🙏💕💗🌎🦋🤍💙🧸💛
Have you ever tried the app head space for anxiety?
I love this video 😊 also what kind of car do you drive I like the interior and we are in the market? Stay safe

I think a lot of people went through that!
Nice. you reply to every comment except mine. Way to go Brittany
Hi! I’m trying my best and only human. Have a good day!
Honestly this is sad that this day in age we need therapy and possibly meds to cope with dealing with teaching.
