WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS A SILENT FULL DAYS JOB?

Well I always wonder why people often perceive teaching as an easy job……….they say “easy ma to became a teacher …it’s an half day job….better than working in the office…” well who said so?

Yes, teaching is indeed a half day job….TEACHING…. I did not mention anything about the time that the teacher takes to correct the pupils books, to prepare the lessons, to do her or his register, to prepare the exam papers, to mark the exam papers and of course to prepare for all the other extra co-curricular activities that is held in and out of the school… well do you all still think that a teachers job is easy………. If u still do here is an extra information for you……..do you know that while teaching a class a teacher is not allowed to sit…imagine standing and handling 40 kids non stop for half an hour….that’s only one class…sometimes a teacher has five to eight classes a day…imagine how she will be feeling at the end of the so call half day… and mind you children are not easy to handle…. People often complain that they can’t handle their own child…and that’s only one imagine how a teacher alone handles 40 pupils in a class….and children are HYPERACTIVE!!!!!!!!!! They will be everywhere and they can ask you anything………

And imagine after the so call half day…….you have to mark a pile of 40 books ( that’s one class only don’t forget one teacher teachers more then one class. She teaches a min of 5 classes at least) and this is ……….well I don’t know what to say…………some hardworking and good students will hand in their books daily some might not they will hand in their work once a month …and being a teacher you have to mark their whole months work at a go……..And that is really, really bad……….its so tiring……….by the time you can mark 20 books you will have a headache………Do you still think a teachers job is a half day job,…… well I am not complaining…..I enjoy the fact that I am going to be a teacher and I just cant wait to be posted, I am looking forward to it, I love children as they are innocent and they show and tell you the truth………

I just one all these people who say a teachers job is easy to rethink what ever they say…….. cause when you work in an office and when you come back you don’t have any form of homework we do…………..we have to prepare for the next days lesson and mark the pupils books….so ours is not just a simple half day’s job…….its also a silent full day job………

AND TO ALL THE TEACHERS OUT THERE, TEACHERS OF THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE………..YOU PEOPLE ARE GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!
