Being a teacher, why is it boring?

Please do not look at the easy teaching profession from the outside perspective - Photo: NHU HUNG

To add more perspectives, Tuoi Tre Online introduces some typical opinions from readers.

Why do many students, especially good students, not choose teaching? Basically, there is a lot of pressure from all sides. Then comes the salary. Summer vacation is 2 months, not 3. Those 2 months are not all taken off.

3 months summer break, teaching less than 8 hours a day

With 3 months of summer break, teaching less than 8 hours a day, the income is not low compared to other administrative careers, so the story of low salary is not the main problem.

The problem is that a teacher teaches for too long, and if there is no serious violation, he or she continues to teach year after year.

Actually, the teaching profession is the profession with the strongest elimination, but at present it is the most arranged.

Attracting students is not about increasing salaries, the problem lies in being able to arrange teaching positions according to wishes, a better teaching environment...

I think the problem is that the pressure on teachers is huge because they have to manage too many students.

Since my time, each teacher has been in charge of 45-50 students, each student has a different problem and she is tired. Students see that and are afraid to choose this major. In my opinion, we have to reduce the number of students in each class, then we can reduce the pressure on teachers.

Don't think teachers only teach!

Please do not look at the teaching profession with a one-sided eye or superficially and judge it as an easy job, do not compare it with the administrative sector.

Please come teach to know, don't think it's just teaching! When to prepare lesson plans, when to grade papers, when to be a homeroom teacher...

Then the 3 summer months probably don't have to go to training, refresher courses or anything. For high school teachers, surely they don't have to go to proctor and grade 10th and 12th grade exams?

I know a middle school teacher in a big city, who is my child's homeroom teacher. Besides teaching in class, the rest of his time is spent on movements, from school, district and city levels.

He once shared that he was under a lot of pressure. If he only taught without participating in the movement, the school leadership would give him a bad evaluation of the competition and movement activities.

In addition to bringing achievements to individuals, it also contributes to the school's achievements; these awards for students and teachers also provide statistics at the end of the year to evaluate which teacher is better, which school is better...

Every profession has its own difficulties.

You see that teaching is so hard, why don't you quit and do something else that is easier? My sister is a good high school teacher, also a homeroom teacher, teaches a team of gifted students, studies for a master's degree..., she quit teaching and went to work for a company for a higher salary.

My sister also confirmed that teachers' salaries are lower but more leisurely and stable, while working outside is much more tiring, the pressure is also double, even though the salary is a bit higher.

My family has many teachers, from kindergarten to university, so don't say I'm being one-sided.

Every job is difficult, teaching is not an easy job, but complaining all day about how hard teaching is, how low the salary is... makes me feel disgusted and unfair to other professions.

I see you guys say teachers have a lot of unnamed work, but they are not far behind in other fields. They continuously study for fear of not being able to keep up with the job and changes of the times.

After 30 years old, still afraid of being eliminated because of not being able to work as hard as the younger generation, worrying about KPI day and night...
