In a recent survey on our website we asked teachers one simple question...

'What's the biggest teaching-related problem you face?'

Obviously there were many different answers but there was one answer which stood out. An overwhelming number of teachers said their biggest problem was:

LACK OF TIME

Around half of the teachers who completed the survey cited workload and time pressure as the major hurdle they face in terms of being able to teach and help their students learn. Many also complained that the associated stress is seriously impacting on their mental and physical wellbeing. 

Here are a few of the answers we received in the survey. Maybe they resonate with you...

"I love my job, but I have no spare time"

"Work-life balance is impossible"

"It never ends. I work every night and all weekend, but I am always behind. There’s always more I need to do."

"I feel angry when I have to take so much work home. But I also feel guilty if I don’t!"

"There is no time for my family and no time for me."

"I want my students to do well and I want to be the best teacher I can be but there just isn’t the time to plan the kind of lessons I want to give them."

"Massive amounts of paperwork prevent me from being able to plan and prepare."

"I am fed up with feeling EXHAUSTED!"

I know how this feels - I ended up in hospital in my 40s due to chronic fatigue. 

I had completely BURNED OUT due to workload (and not taking time to look after myself).

There was simply no time to look after myself, you see. There was no time for work-life balance or wellbeing.

I used to promise myself I'd have a good rest at the weekend or next week - once I'd got the current pile of work out of the way.

But the rest period never came. There was always another pile of paperwork or another overdue task to complete.

After a warning from specialists that I needed to get a handle on my stress levels... I knew I HAD to either give up my work or find a way of coping with the immense workload and the overwhelming pressure.

And that's exactly what I did. 

Over a period of several months I gradually discovered (partly by accident) that by making some very simple changes to the way I was approaching my life, I could accomplish far, far more in less time and without putting myself through Hell in the process.

These changes have enabled me to ACHIEVE MUCH MORE... in MUCH LESS TIME by working in a healthier, more organised, focused manner.

And these changes aren't just about being more productive at work. My improved organisation and focus has improved every area of my life because I now have more of that most precious commodity... MORE FREE TIME!

The good news is... you really CAN achieve much more in much less time - and with less stress. What's more, you can start doing it right now.  

I've put the process I've used into a complete training resource called Time Management for Teachers. 

Imagine:

No more 60-70+ hour work weeks.

No more feelings of guilt associated with neglecting your family in evenings and at weekends.

No more frustration at not being able to tend to your own wellbeing and experience work-life balance.

No more struggling to find time to plan and prepare the kind of lessons you want to teach.

And no more feeling totally drained and exhausted at the end of every day.

What would you do with 15+ extra hours per week?

Most teachers seem to work anywhere between 50 and 60 hours per week. Some work more than that.

That is a LOT of work to cram into a week and leaves very little time for little other than eating and sleeping.

It certainly doesn't leave time for relaxation or for much of a social life. And yet both of these elements are crucial for mental health and wellbeing. Neglecting our own needs is the fast track to burnout. 

So what would you do with a minimum of a extra 10-20+ work-free hours per week?

- Spend quality time with family and friends?

- Exercise?

- Read quietly in a cosy coffee shop?

- Spend time on (or take up) a hobby.

- Engage in healthy activities such as yoga, cooking healthy meals or walking in nature?

By having an extra 10-20+ hours per week to spend on things you want to do, you can live a healthier, more balanced life.

Being able to manage your time and improve focus can literally transform  your life

Once you learn the simple secrets to managing time effectively you'll no longer be at the mercy of overwhelming workloads and time pressure.  You'll have the same amount of time, but you'll accomplish far more with it! You'll experience things like...

• Finishing your working day WHEN YOU DECIDE, feeling on top of the world, energised and proud of what you've accomplished, and knowing you've made massive progress toward the things that matter most 

• ​Having the clarity and focus required to hone in on the RIGHT things and ignore the busy work that gets in the way. 

• ​Enjoying the freedom, social life and family time you’ve been missing out on for years… reconnecting to old hobbies, rekindling lost friendships, and making a LIFE instead of existing just for work.

And today, you have the opportunity to experience results like these in your own life… 

Ready to gain 15+ hours per week? 

You don't have to keep struggling. You don't have to live like this.

You don't have to end each day exhausted, weary and depressed at the thought of doing this for the rest of your working life.

You just need to make some very simple changes in the way you are working and living.

I've spelled these out for you in a concise, 90-minute training (plus a PDF guide).

There's no need spend hours wading through those boring time-management or productivity books. There's no need to embark on a lengthy, time-consuming course filled with waffle and pointless fluff.

More than ever in these days of information overload and overwhelming demands on our time, you need a QUICK-TO-LEARN process which can be implemented FAST.

And that's what I've got for you. Scroll down to find out more.
