Today on Teachers Off Duty, the crew dives into the unpredictable world of substitute teaching… and let's just say, anything can happen.
From walking into classrooms with zero context to surviving the chaos of students testing boundaries, they share their funniest, most stressful, and most unforgettable subbing experiences.
They talk about what it's really like being "the new sub," how quickly students figure it out, and the wild things kids will try to get away with when their regular teacher is gone. Plus, they unpack the reality of leaving sub plans, classroom management struggles, and the unspoken rules every substitute learns the hard way.
Whether you've subbed before, worked with subs, or been that student… this episode will have you laughing, cringing, and saying "yep, that tracks."
