 What Spare Time? Teachers spend so much of their time doing things pertaining to their jobs that they don’t have much time for themselves. They are always making out tests, grading papers, recording grades and other monotonous tasks. Although such tasks are tedious and time-consuming, these things go along with their work and they take them in stride. When teachers do have some spare time, like everyone else, they take advantage of it and do the things they enjoy. 22 Rita McGlone Typing 1 and 2 Bus.

Teachers excel in many different ways. One teacher said she feels great achievement when a student understands a difficult problem. Other teachers have families plus a career. The ability to manage both is a very large personal achievement. Some of our teachers play the role of the hard working student by attending college to gain advanced degrees. Many of our teachers experience spiritual fullfillment by sing- ing in the church choir or teaching a Sunday School class. Teachers are great achievers because they are always looking toward new horizons and establishing new goals for themselves.
