No, you’re wrong on this one, jstoesz.
If you think teaching is “easy,” then you’re not working hard enough. The only teachers who think it’s easy are the ones who pass out worksheets and sit behind a newspaper. That’s easy, real teaching is not.
When was the last time you tried to teach a classroom full of of kids who don’t speak English as a native language, get no support from home (some even coming from gang families and/or are drug babies), and have a shitty attitude about learning? In the meantime, you’ve got the “No Child Left Behind” administrators and politicians breathing down your neck. I suppose you have a lot of experience with this “easy” job?
