00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,640
I'm John. I'm currently 

2
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,680
teaching special education in Mackay
 North State High School.

3
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,800
The thing that I love most about
 working with children and working with

4
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,240
specifically special needs kids
 is that every day is completely different.

5
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,440
Every day you kind of end up doing things
 that are linked to social work.

6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,000
It's a caring profession.
 You're working with people.

7
00:00:26,080 --> 00:00:28,720
I've actually been able
 to meet a lot of teachers my own age,

8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,480
and we like do things
 weekends. It's really good to get away,

9
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,400
like every weekend
 you can do something different.
