ChatGPT: the talk of the TCEA convention
After visiting the TCEA convention and expo, I am stoked to share one of the main topics floating around among all the geeky teachers and trainers. Chat.openai.com is currently free.

What are you putting off today?
Projects and More Too many people think that teachers get the summer off. That’s simply not true. You see, we are not employed for the days we are not working. My particular employer separates our yearly salary into 24 checks, so I’m getting paid twice a month all year. At the same time, it’s like…

VipKid: The Reality Check
What did I get myself into? I recently began a contract with VipKid. One thing I have noticed is that whenever a VipKid ad floats around on Facebook there are always TONS of teachers sharing their referral codes and TONS of applicants that are upset that they did not make it through the interview.
