Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I’m sure there’s a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.

I teach kids how to do physics, and how to write about doing physics.
I’ve heard it said physics is a critical part of education because it teaches reasoning based on simple rules that aren’t up for debate.
I never considered how physics writing could serve the same role in terms of scientific precision in writing.
The kind of writing they do is it try to explain in English why their incorrect answers doing actually work. It’s a really great way to get them thinking, and to get me some insight into how they understand the concepts.
But also kids just need to practice writing! It’s a superpower! And it’s an important part of gathering info and explaining it to yourself!
