I am a teacher at a special Ed school for behaviorally disordered kids. It's perfect because they tell me when I'm acting weird so I know when it's time to reign it in. I felt like I had a blast while manic but perhaps wasn't so productive as I could barely concentrate on lessons. When depressed though it becomes nearly impossible to work since the kids have such bad behavior issues. On those days I usually switch my lesson to something like a grammar worksheet so I can have some peace. What age do you teach?
