I am not a teacher and I can honestly say I have never wanted to be one. However, I do work in a school and I see the daily workings of the staff – how hard teachers work, their daily grind and how often their hard work is overlooked by senior staff.

Teachers celebrates all the wonderful things that a teacher does; all the trials and tribulations of the job. Whilst this book focuses more on American schools, all of the things mentioned are relatable to those who work in education.

This is a brilliant stocking filler of a book for all those hard working, underpaid, and under-appreciated teachers that you have in your life.

Teachers – There Is No Such Thing as Hot Coffee and Other Teacher Truths by Bored Teachers is available now.

This is definitely the kind of book you would get for a Teacher friend as a present as I imagine a lot of the book rings true to them!! I thought it was a fun read with some great pictures - 4 stars from me for this one

This was a funny book with punchy lines about teacher problems, like endless staff meeting and paperwork. It definitely showed the struggle of teachers lives in a humorous way. This book was well-designed, appealing to the eye. Oddly, some of the pages, like the thought bubbles of a teacher during staff meetings may apply to students as well. This might be a way to get a student to appreciate their good teachers more

I was looking forward to reading and reviewing the book, but I was not able to download the book. Please send me a way to download the book and I will review it.

Really funny and so easy to relate. Highly recommended, specially if you are a teacher.

Bright and cheery graphics are eye catching and beautifully done. The narrative is decidely one-note and focuses on work gripes. The musings are relatable, but the humor is not sharp or snarky enought to offer biting commentary even though it wants to be. The style is just shy of corny and reminds me of those sarcastic Maxine calendars - not exactly gripping, but it might elicit a small chuckle or two.

As a teacher, I found this book to be hilarious! I would buy it for my other teacher friends for a good laugh absolutely!

Absolutely hilarious - my dad is a teacher and many of my friends have gone into teaching, so I am very familiar with the struggles of being a teacher. It's why I went into librarianing instead of teaching. But this book will definitely make all of my teacher friends sit back and say "ugh, same!" Teaching is hard work, the pay is crap, you have way too much stuff to do...it's rewarding but...ugh, so much work. Sometimes you just gotta complain. I'm going to look into getting copies of this for my teacher friends.

This book would make a great gift for any teacher. Filled with "insider jokes" and great graphics, it's a book to re-read when the teaching going gets tough.

As a teacher, I did not find this book very amusing.

This is an amazing book that has an anecdote on each page that every teacher in the Country will relate to. They are witty and funny and at times far to accurate. This would make a fantastic present for any teacher for their birthday or Christmas.
Great read.

so first off.. I am not a teacher

and I LOVEDDD this book. its hilarious and witty and I have heard all my teacher friends say most of the stuff in this book. Its a good kindle book or a better next to your laptop as you frantically time out an agenda for class the next week book.

I was given an ARC of this and I just went and purchased it myself on amazon as a gift to a teacher friend of mine she is insanely religious and this book to my knowledge is not offensive and the humor is very clean. (it is still preorder for another month but worth it)

The art inside is lovely and I overall enjoyed it. this can be read in one sitting or just open the book to a random page for a giggle.

Being a retired teacher, I can relate to this book very well. The only thing that did not fit for me is that Canadian teachers are paid very well. Indeed, I spend a lot of that money on supplies for my classroom, books, gifts for my students as well as snacks for those who forgot their lunches. The multitude of comments about cold coffee, washroom breaks (not), paperwork and meetings definitely hit home. I can laugh at them now, but not so much when I was dealing with it. I absolutely loved the chapter about "the apple not falling far from the tree". Boy, did I ever have those moments over my 33 year career. The layout of the book is nice. The twelve short chapters with a nice introduction before the one-liners and thoughts of teachers was a great way to put this book together. This is a laugh out loud book that every new teacher needs to read as well as every parent who makes the comment about teachers having the summer off.

Whether you have just survived your first year as a teacher or are a seasoned veteran, you'll relate and laugh aloud at these witty observations. The accompanying art is delightful to behold.

This is a collection of sayings, and ideas of what it is like to be a teacher. While a comedy, this book gets real. No teacher will say their class size is too small. No teacher ever will be think they are paid too much for the work they do. A nice coffee table book for the teacher in your life.

5☆ Witty, Teachers really will really relate to this book.

Teachers - the struggle is real, is an amusingly witty account of the life of teaching, through teachers eyes.

The book is divided into 12 short chapters each chapter consisting of a short explanation of the chapter followed by insider thoughts, feelings and emotions.

For example... Chapter 6... School Supplies
Page 67....
'Teacher-Gasm'
'Sharpened pencils, brand new Expo markers, no line at the copy machine, and....and....and....
LAMINATED EVERYTHING'

Most teachers will tell you stationery is everything! Laminating is a must especially  when doing display boards and the photocopier is your best friend!
Oh and not running out of board markers as half the time they dry out!

How do I know this... I am a qualified nursery nurse working with children aged 0-6yrs 
I spent many a time at the photocopier and laminating.
Unfortunately due to health and disability I had to give up the job I love the most.

This book is very funny, sarcastic, witty and relatable.
However it is a tongue in cheek book that is the insight to a teachers world.

The back of the book states that:
'Bored Teachers advocates all teachers finding humor in the frustration, exhaustion and complexity that come with the profession'.

It deals with end of terms, start of terms, marking, lesson plans, an abundance  of coffee, after school staff meetings, stationery, governing reports and those are just a few!

I really enjoyed reading this book. It had me laughing out loud and reminiscing.

The chapters are short, each page is brightly coloured making the words jump right off the page!
It's very easy to follow and the little illustrations are fun and eye catching!

I highly recommend this book to Teachers, all school staff including other child care providers.

Also i do think it is a good read for everyone as if you went to school I'm sure you can remember the teachers you loved and those you didn't like as much. This will open your eyes to the thoughts and feelings of those teachers.

Enjoy!

This was a funny book with punchy lines about teacher problems, like endless staff meeting and paperwork. It definitely showed the struggle of teachers lives in a humorous way. This book was well-designed, appealing to the eye. Oddly, some of the pages, like the thought bubbles of a teacher during staff meetings may apply to students as well. This might be a way to get a student to appreciate their good teachers more, as it shows the problems well and hints at deeper problems in the US education system. The only problem I had with it was that it seemed to apply moreso to elementary school teachers. A fun book to flip through and give to anyone involved with the school system.

The book was a humorous quick read, and as the daughter of a teacher, I remember my mom saying some of the phrases mentioned. Teachers, at least those in elementary schools will easily be able to relate to this book. For me, even though it was funny, it was a one-and-done book. I don't see myself deciding to read it for a second time. It may be because there wasn't a lot of content, or because I'm not actually a teacher, so I had a hard time truly relating.

There are a few teachers I know that would love this book, so as far as being giftable, it does really well

Not quite what I was expecting formatwise, but this is a fun read for all educators.

Quick read, relatable, and very funny! I found that this book is interesting with cute graphics and humorous quotes. If you want to find more about this book you can go to this website https://boredteachers.com/
