Mrs. Chelsea Brawner
November 25, 2019
The Teacher of the Month for November is Mrs. Chelsea Brawner. I asked some questions to get to know her a little better.
Q: Where did you go to school and college?
A: I went to school in Macon County, and I attended college at Tennessee Technological University.
Q: How many kids do you have?
A: I have three kids, four if I include my husband.
Q: Do you have any talents?
A: I’m pretty fluent in sarcasm.
Q: What do you do during your free time?
A: Hahahaha, what is free time?
Q: Tell me how you felt the first year of teaching?
A: I was completely terrified. There is nothing in college that can actually prepare you for teaching as a career.
Q: What made you want to teach English?
A: I figured that if I was good at it, I might as well make a career out of it.
Q: How long have you been teaching?
A: This is my 9th year teaching.
Q: What is the most rewarding thing about being a teacher?
A: I guess it would be the relationships I develop with the kids. I know so many random facts about my students, and I use those facts to teach or to enforce discipline.

I feel you about teaching being terrifying. What happens when you say, “You guys can come to me for anything.”, but when they do, college didn’t prepare you for that.

It really is funny. BTW, free time is when you do something after you finish everything. Lol!!!!!
