I used the Voicette for many years, until I discovered the Chattervox. It has a wonderful quality, and, because it straps around my waist and can be worn as a headset, my hands are free. This makes the job so much easier than having to use one hand to hold the mike and carry the speaker over my shoulder. I now use both instruments on a daily basis depending on the situation. They are both portable so are great for recess duty, gym, or any situation outside the classroom.
Teaching continues to be both enjoyable and rewarding.
The children give me so much more than I can ever give them. The decision to return to the classroom was one that I have never regretted. I continue to ride and jump my horse. After a rough day of teaching, it is great to go out to the barn and enter a whole different world. Riding is a sport, it's great exercise, but most important is the special relationship I have with the animal.
