Defeat?
I have applied to over 2,000 teacher jobs since June. Been on 43 interviews. Taught 4 demo lessons.
Each time, I feel fine in the interview. When I question them later "Going forward for me, how can I improve?" They say, oh, we loved meeting you. It's just that we have chosen a different candidate.

Hmmm...it cut off my last entry. Anyway, I will substitute til I find an opening. Terrible pay, no benefits but I must do something. 20 years of teaching and I have never met a teacher who got their foot in the door that way, but I can always interview if something comes open.
I just feel defeated. I know that I am a great teacher.
But I am so very, very tired.
