Teaching is a challenging profession. Especially in the first few years.
Starting your first year as a teacher can be overwhelming, but Dear First Year Teacher from Simply Kinder is the encouraging letter every new educator needs. It’s a heartfelt reminder that the exhaustion, self-doubt, and challenges you’re facing are completely normal—and that you’re not alone.
The letter encourages new teachers to take care of themselves, lean on their colleagues, and remember that growth takes time. With patience and perseverance, confidence will come, and before you know it, you’ll look back and see just how far you’ve come. Check out the full letter for a little extra inspiration!
