The profession of teacher is so hard because you need be compromised with the students they work and they must be better professionals than they already are. For me that is the definition of a good teacher, and how I know, well my school teachers have this profile and I think they made a good person capable of facing the university.
I think the teacher job is undervalued in comparison of they do for the society, is right the strike because is the only way of the authorities listen their complaint.
Talking about the university education in Chile I can say it is good but with one condition, is so expensive and not all can study, for example last year in the school I had a lot of friend who wanted study medicine but only one is enter to study this career in this university. Its hard enter study first because points of you need for enter to the career and second is the tariff, not all can pay of university and the same time not all be benefit with the "Gratuidad" for that´s why I think that education in Chile is good but is has much to improve.
Yes, being a teacher is hard
ReplyDeleteSchool teachers with vocation have a really hard job which is badly paid and very undervalued by most of the Chilean society. And, as you say, who would teach us without our school teachers?
