Teacher is the Best Actor in the world

Teaching is definitely not the career for everyone. A good teacher needs to be an organized individual that is good with time management, planning, and multi-tasking. A teacher should be creative, energetic, and sensitive. If you’re good with crowd control, speaking in front of a group, and responding quickly to an abundance of emails (and phone calls) from teachers, parents, and administrators, then you may make an excellent teacher.

Many teachers get stressed out when they think of all the responsibilities that come along with teaching. Who can blame them? The list of qualities that create a good teacher is long and overwhelming. Oftentimes, we find ourselves focusing on the time-consuming training, the changes brought forward by administration, and the paperwork that needs to be done. We start considering other jobs, where you can use the restroom any time you like or zone out for a moment, and we begin complaining. If you’re a teacher and you’re stressed, or in a negative place in your job right now, here are a few reminders of why teaching is absolutely the best job there is.

Helping a Child Become a Successful Adult. A co-worker recently told me a story. He meet with his student and  she ran into him. The student recognized her immediately and told him, “Mr. Heru, I want to thank you for helping me to love school. You made a huge difference in my life, and I thank you for that.” Mr. Heru was this child’s six grade teacher. It’s amazing how rewarding our job can be, especially when you see a child become a successful adult.

Teaching can be a very difficult job. It can be trying and exhausting. At times we need to step back and re-visit the reason that we continue to do our job. Instead of complaining about the challenges, remember that it’s one of the most rewarding and inspiring careers there is. For many reasons, it’s arguably the best job out there.
