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! Having a particular interest in animation and cartooning, I decided to combine the two things I’m most passionate about – teaching and drawing – and these are the results!

I draw on moments from the school nativity play, lunchtime struggles and general life working as a teacher. You can see more of my comics in my first and second posts on Bored Panda.

I worked at a grade school as a lunchroom aide. Some of the kids called me Teacher. I would see some of the kids at the local Walmart. They would say "Hi" It wasn't awkward at all. It's funny that they thought I was a teacher. :-)

When I saw my teacher outside of school, I hid behind my sister. BUT THEY ALWAYS FOUND ME! They would be like, OH HI BROOKE! HOW ARE YOU? good. OH THAT'S GREAT! and then I just walk away saying ummmmmmmm thanks?

I was interning at a preschool and I once had to be driven somewhere by my boss, who had her daughter who attended the school in her car. Apparently she asked about it for a long time, unable to comprehend.

Reminds me of one time I was with my dad at Blockbuster, I was choosing which He-Man I wanted to rent. My science teacher, who at school is a class clown of sorts, all fun and games, how ever that night he was not so chirpy. Did not realize at that time, but I think he was renting porno flicks and my presence made him uneasy, especially when I introduced him to my dad lol

Last year I told my pupils that EVERY teacher in the world has Santa's phone number. That is how he knows who goes on the good list. It was a pretty awesome month behaviour-wise.

I remember back before health and safety. Back then, it was called common sense.
