I would break a lance in favor of teachers.
Let me try to overthrow the point of view and speak well of those who work in schools. Speak ill of him, they do well in many, the infamous professor (the carcass of the movie "Night Before the Exams). To speak properly, there no proof: it is absolutely unpopular, we crazy? Defending the teachers - known lazy unprepared, always ready to complain, social status or almost elusively recognized only for its shortcomings and never for its many achievements.
Obviously, no one ever tells of the courage and determination it takes to enter the classroom and face 25 to 35 students waiting for you at the gate. If you fail the entry into class is like a play, you can not repeat, you are condemned to life and you can not make them change their minds. Believe me, much worse than Christmas dinner with relatives who dislike ....
Whilst it may be that the entry into the class of prof is a success, it remains the key point: how to interest them segura, and without threatening them without screaming? I repeat: they are all against one, a fact which must be able to resolve the determination with skill and sympathy. Obviously no one taught him, nor has it ever done to see how it's done. You learn on the field and every day you change your shot ...
It is not enough. The teacher needs to know to do everything: to be powerful, funny, seductive, attractive, even clever, but not too much else arrives on time - and I quote - the "why do you and the teacher?". As early as ever ..
Missionaries, if reinterpreted the concept of a lay missionary, alias teach without being aware that they have the vocation to teach.
certainly teach is not a job shining socially, nor compensated for ... It is silent, or you forget to tell the time you move to correct homework, prepare lessons, attend endless planning meetings, not to mention the class councils, which is regularly attacked for failing to meet the program or not having assessed in a manner appropriate for the student ... No one ever puts further enhances the listening skills that one must possess to meet the diverse demands, from a ready answer to become spin doctors Dalal two seconds after a kind of psychotherapist through the infinite patience it takes to listen and sometimes incoherent speech ungrammatical. Unfortunately no one ever tells the joy you feel when a student gets excited for the Latin versions or the classics or, better yet, knows how to do equations and relevant scientific questions arise that have nothing to do with ufology or National Treasure ... Yeah! No one ever talks about why teaching is a profession for those who want to shine or for those who still believe that only through awareness, understanding, continuity will have in hand the keys to enter the world of work.
But you have never met a professor boldly say: I am a professor and I'm proud? You would think that it is a fool or a fanatic or someone who has not yet entered in the register. How can you brag if you lack the means, instruments and places to do your job with dignity?
Have you ever thought about the determination needed to face daily, minute by minute, criticism and suggestions from school who do not understand anything beginning with the Ministers of Education of the public or rather destruction ..
But what other job category would be able to bear such a heavy load moral and social development without rebelling? Only the Professor and those who work in schools that do miracles (Meredith's latest film is shown): do not give up anything, not even in the face of constant attacks, ridiculous salaries and the lack of career ... Not only that, despite throughout the school year goes on and reset of
I have a dream, who knows? maybe one day it will come true, a unique form of protest. In turn, one day at a time, using the word stop all pre-schools, day after elementary school, then middle and finally high school ... when an order does not work the other school work to the bitter end ... ... and then perhaps you will address the problem in a practical school. Happy New Year
