You are so grounded for someone so young. Many people take an entire lifetime to learn the lessons you already know. One thing I will say to all young teachers: please don’t feel pressured to have the “perfect” classroom right at the start. I’ve taught for 30 years and I have gradually acquired things over time. You don’t have to get everything at once. As well, your tastes, preferences and trends will change. My happiest purchases were a heavy duty stapler, heavy duty hole puncher, a label maker and a plier style stapler (trust me, but don’t ever let the kids touch it). I wanted these right away but I ended up buying them over several years. I wish you a long and happy career. You are exactly what our profession needs, especially now. Best of luck!
I quit my job as a teacher my salary wasn’t worth it. I changed my career and transitioned to Financial Planning and Investing I make 4x what I got payed as a teacher.
My #1 tip- Definitely get an additional retirement plan other than your state pension plan. I have a 403b (which is the non-profit version of a 401k) and a Roth IRA. I highly suggest starting ASAP so that you can have a good savings by the time you retire! Both of my parents were teachers and have lived a very comfortable retirement with their state pensions and personal retirement savings.
Thank you for this!! I have definitely been thinking about teaching for years but I get shot down by people a lot because teachers don’t get as much. Even if they should be getting paid a lot. But it’s something that I’ve always wanted to do. Your videos definitely have helped a lot ❤️
hello! living in Cali here and I was stunned when you said $50 on gas for the month! we can’t even get a full tank for $50 and I fill up 5x a month 🤦🏻♀️
My district offers an awesome additional retirement plan. A 457b. I invest half of my check into that. Yes half 😂 but basically if you start at 22 and pay 4,000 a year into it for 15 years by the time you’re 60 you’ll have over 400,000 in the account bc of interest. This is something I’m super proud of. You can pick the amount that you invest. I can also borrow from myself to buy a house. Look into it on TH-cam and see if your district offers it. It’s AMAZING. Also, here from insta! Have a great day Madison! ❤️
This video will be helpful to many prospective teachers since the salary outlook might be something that is a deterrent! You are rocking it girl! I’m from IG 🤗
Can we please stop saying that we don’t go in it for the money??? It sounds like an excuse for the government to continue to pay us poor wages. I’m a teacher in south Florida and our cost of living is EXPENSIVE. However, our districts have not given us livable wages-one of the lowest in the country.
I’m from IG and I saw you are an MSU alum! I’m currently a junior at MSU majoring in special education. Your channel is so inspiring and I hope you have an amazing school year! Go bears!!❤️🐻
I love your channel!! You seem so genuine and authentic! I am a school counselor, and I would LOVE to start a TH-cam channel... there are not enough school counselors out here and I really think I could bring a lot to the table. I don't know where to start though! Any tips (camera, other necessary tools, etc.)?
Most school districts have a teacher salary schedule, if someone does ask you about your salary you can point them to that in case they genuinely are interested.
I came from instagram! 💗 found you from your classroom set up and have been hooked ever since (Even though I basically have no connection to teacher vids lol)
I understand a lot of people don’t like talking about money or what they make but saying something is livable is subjective. I found that I was interested in the field of education and no one wants to say how much they make. Even though it shouldn’t be about money, that is still an important aspect of the job.
Great. Thanks for that honest review. M myself planning to migrate Canada in the same profession. ( For standards 6 to 12).. any idea or suggestion from your side??
Money saving should be approached as an optimisation strategy and work on the three biggest categories housing, food and travel. My vice is pizza so now I have a pizza budget.😀
@@madisonleighmaryan lol thank you Maddison - Ive been on maternity for two years so one thing I have deffo learned is being disciplined with money and the value of a budget :) I do have a personal finance channel, and would be great to get your feedback... you have grown so well and i am bit of newbie to YT :-/
You’re so cute. As an “older” person who has spawned people (I think they are people... we will wait until after the teenage years to say for sure!) and been teaching for 14 years now 😬 🤫 I will say this... it is possible to live off a teachers salary. You will never become a member of the 1%. I would also say that someone in your position... young and kidless... should look into investing. Life happens quick! You’ve got the basics down here but my suggestion is to look forward a bit. Get started on that retirement plan now. Talk to a financial advisor about investments that will pay out in the long run not necessarily in the moment. Savings, savings, savings!!!
"How to survive on a teacher salary" while ignoring the fact her husband's a doctor lol 😂 I think we'd all be fine too if our partners were making 6 figures too lol
Watching your videos are making me want to go into education!! Anyone else with me??
Her videos motivated me to complete my paper to go into education.. hope they accept me
Yeah, same, except I was already thinking about it beforehand and now I’m seriously considering it.

"Teaching is the work of the heart." I love this sentence of u cuz Im a teacher here too. I totally agree with that.💓
