I Am A Teacher And I Create Comics About The Struggles Of Teaching Children (76 Pics)

Hey class! I’m Ms. Mojo Rose, and I create teacher comics. I first started getting ideas for my comic strips when I was earning my credential in 2013. I imagined little kids chanting songs about my bad lesson plans and twerking during flag salute. I was, very clearly, sleep-deprived.

The sleep never really came back to me, but more drawing ideas did. After a post blew up on Reddit, I created an official “Summers Off” Instagram and dedicated my time to growing the page into one of the top teacher jokes and comics online today. To my surprise, not only could school teachers relate to these cartoon drawings, but parents and students could as well.

So now, I present you with 76 of my webcomics that helped me stay sane as I navigated through the triumphs, heartbreaks, and headaches of teaching elementary school children.
