The most difficult profession

Just face it! Teaching profession can at times make you feel so not good about yourself. All my life I dream of being a great person.. Someone great benefits a great amount of people whose presence is of an utmost importance but the truth is I feel so not good about myself when I see my students display insignificant improvement in terms of their academic and attitude..

I just wish that those doctors and engineers friends of mine could see the reason why they shouldn't say that being a teacher is easy. It is indeed the most difficult profession. I'd rather choose writing a book than teaching these kids if I want to have an easy and less complicated life.

Don't let yourself give up. Every profession have their own difficulties. But, being a teacher is the great things to do ever. The person who train the future leaders. Students at their age never think about their future. They are like to play around. Be patient and wish your "kids" success for their SPM.. se ya....

Those who take the trouble to actually teach will find it difficult.
Those who choose to do the bare minimum & pass the time, will find it very easy.
Either way, you wont lose your job. Nor will there be any promotions or demotions.

I'm glad you choose to be a true professional.

Cakap senang la,kan Farah?
People think that all you need is going into the class, read from the textbook, scribble something on the board, give exercise and, you're already a teacher.
For me, nothing is easy in this world but it'll b easy once u love it and have passion for it.
Bt that doesn't mean we can't complaint once in a while, kn?=p
Take care!

anon: thanks a lot for the encouragement! i do struggling for change in my students and I, myself.. i hope for something better nxt year..iA

jarod: thanks! nothing beats the satisfaction of seeing the 'kids' transform or morphed into something positive.. no promotion but what we want the most in life! of course the joy which can only be gained by doing the best we can in everything


ain: yess.. rasa nk complaint tibe2.. it occurs to me suddenly perhaps during this time of writing this entry i was so upset with the school's decision about something that i started complaining.. the thing that i dislike the most bout teaching is when you have no freedom to choose what you want to do.. actually i am more concerned about the process that i have to endure rather than the task's level of difficulty.. i must enjoy the process in order to love the job..
