I’m A Primary School Teacher, Here Are My 31 New Comics That Illustrate What It’s Like
116Kviews
I am a primary school teacher from Galway, Ireland. By day, I have the fun task of educating the next generation of kids… by night… I’m an artist! All my comics are drawn the old-school way—with a pen, paper, and a lightbox.
Not only do teachers engage with and enjoy these comics, but the students themselves seem to love the drawings and relate to the humor, which is fantastic. I hope that these comics humorously illustrate the hard work, dedication, and care that teachers provide our students every day.
My comics have been published in a book form, which has become a bestseller here in Ireland. The comics have been praised by Matt Groening and the book has since been endorsed by Mike Reiss, Emmy award-winning writer and producer of The Simpsons. I never imagined all this would have happened when I started to post the "When's it Hometime?" teacher comics online back in 2016.
You can see more of my comics on Bored Panda here, here, and here.

I like in calvin and Hobbes when his dad convinced him be photos were colour photos but everything was black and white then XD
Omg lol I can imagine my kid doing that unfortunately. Sorry teacher!
I feel this. You start out so hyped and ready for a new school year (or whatever) and it just goes flat after a time.
love these! so true, and really original
Thank you !
If sophie is one of your real students, you should tell her I LOVE HER! Also tell her middle school isn't any better tho
They really are. My parent's were teachers. I can relate to everything even in Denmark 40-30-20 years ago. ❤
I really love these, I'm sure all of the teachers across Ireland will agree that these comics are so relatable! Reading these made me remember how I use to annoy my teachers during my Primary School days not that long ago.

These hold up for so many levels of teaching... I'm a college adjunct and these students still exist. (I just don't have to talk with their parents.)
