Being a teacher, why is it boring?

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 off.

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

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

The problem is that a teacher teaches for too long, if there is no serious violation, then he 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 problem and she is tired. Students see that and are afraid to choose this major. In my opinion, we need to reduce the number of students in each class, then the pressure on teachers will be reduced.

Don't think teachers only teach!

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

I invite you to teach and you will know, don't think it's just teaching! What time to prepare lesson plans, what time to grade papers, what time to be a homeroom teacher...

Then the 3 summer months probably don't have to go to training, refresher courses. For high school teachers, they probably 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 the time he spends on movements, from school, district and city levels.

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

In addition to bringing achievements to individuals, it also contributes to the achievements of the school; awards and other awards for students and teachers are also to have data for year-end statistics 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's 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 and 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 biased.

Every job is difficult, teaching is not necessarily easy, 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 inferior to other fields. They study continuously because they are afraid of not being able to meet the job requirements 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 is also day and night...
