I am getting overwhelmed with the students at my job.

It’s hard to get kids to listen. I’m doing one on one with a student and SHE IS A HANDFUL. I mean she won’t listen and I have to keep chasing after her. She’s cute but such a handful. It makes me cry. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Don’t laugh at me. It’s overwhelming

is there no one to offer you help when you are feeling overwhelmed? are you all alone with them? maybe you could mention something to your boss & find a volunteer teacher's aide. unfortunately a lot of parents push their parenting on outside sources, so i understand if it is painful & overwhelming at times. you can only do your best.

@lovelywarpedlemon I did but they told me they’re my students and I need to learn how to deal with them by myself and it’s something I going to have to do if I want to be a teacher. I have to do things I don’t wanna do sometimes. They kept walking away when I hinted them that I needed support but they just looked at me and gave me an “oh well” look. One said that she’s only 4 so expect her to be a handful and she is my student so I am responsible for her and not the other staff. Nobody really offered to help me. I was on my own.
