So what goes on on a typical day as a primary school teacher you may ask? Well, thanks to me we may have the answers!

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.

Jesus, this is true! My friend is a teacher and she met her student in the middle of nowhere during hitch-hiking in Greece!

I seriously remember this feeling, running into a teacher somewhere other than school. It was surreal.

Most don't get a summer break.. they have summer jobs to make ends meet and then go back to the grind...

Hi, Scott! Just curious, are you from the US? Your experience doesn't match what I currently know of teachers and I wanted to expand my understanding.

Are you guys serious? Being a teacher is hard work and a very important job, don't make out they 'have it easy'

That's why I say we teachers don't have holidays, we have therapy-brakes, so we can pull ourselves together again to start a new school year ;)

September vs. June? Pieve of cake! In corporate life that would be "IT manager on Monday" vs. "IT manager on Friday"

Exactly, Lizzy, for a teacher that's September vs June becasue many of us (I won't say all teachers because that depends a lot on the person) we don't even have weekends. We work every single day to try to make our lesson better and to give our students the best of us to let them make the best of themselves. So, no, sorry, I don't have time to recover from Friday to Monday. I wish I could! :)

Teacher's are a bunch of whiners ... at least they get a summer break, most of the workforce just keeps deteriorating month after month

Have you ever been teaching primary or secondary school? Please, try. Then I'll be glad to read your opinion about teachers :)

Your first two years working in an elementary school will be tough, but you'll build an immune system hard as a rock.

Add parent teacher conferences, class parties, and field trips, and you will know why teachers age quickly!

When i was in kindergarden, there was this substitute teacher who we called 'the tooth fairy' (i literally cant remember her real name) bevause whenever she came, one of the children would lose a tooth and no one knew why :)
