Ultimate Educator Career **TESTED WITH 12/20/18 PATCH**
*** Tested with Get Famous (not required) and Game Version 1.47.51.1020 – November 13, 2018 Update (definitely required) ***
PLEASE NOTE: You WILL need the newest Neia Career Commons file (included in download) also!
Also just as an FYI (because I thought it was a bug and was about to completely embarrass myself
on Neia’s forum) as of the last patch, EA removed the “ideal mood” for rabbit hole careers.
Oh… You knew that already… So… It was just me? Okay then…. Carry on.
Educators are amazing! I think of facing a room full middle school kids and my knees get weak. Also, there are so many paths and choices you can make in the education field. And all of them are equally important and interesting. I wanted to kind of dig into what kinds of things Educators do (and I kind of miss the Sims having a teacher career). I hope you have a teacher in your game who will enjoy it.
Most of the paths have 5 levels. Academia has 7, taking you all the way up to university President. The idea is that your Sim will probably be an Elder by that time, which seems fitting. Also, that’s where the big Simoleons are. Pay levels are more EA than realistic for a teacher. Educators are sadly underpaid. I wanted to give your Sims a break and pay them what Educators DESERVE. Play with life, right? Lastly, during most of the school and Academia levels you earn a ridiculous amount of PTO. Like, a day per day. Rack it up and take summers off like a real teacher (well, except your Sims will get paid, so BONUS!).
And so… on to…

Remember, your role is not only to teach, but to inspire and empower!

Your local branch works hard to address teacher complaints, negotiate contracts, and serve as a liaison between the Willow Creek School District and the union.

Prepare to spend your time pounding your head against your dissertation while crying over subject weighting. There’s a long road ahead of you, but at least you have enough grant money to do it full-time. So, silver lining, right? Right?
