A Teacher's View
|

To be a teacher is not the easiest thing to be in the world.
|
|
Very often, your students don't give a damn about what you are saying or what
|
|
you want them to do. You have to walk around the classroom like a guard or
|
|
cop or something like that, just to make them do some of the things they are
|
|
supposed to.
|
|
|
|
It's very difficult to motivate the pupils to study. Who needs to know about
|
|
old kings? Who needs to know how to write and speak a foreign language?
|
|
All they want is to become car mechanics, hairdressers or work at McDonald's.
|
|
|
|
I try (I am trying hard, really) to give them thousands and thousands of
|
|
reasons, why knowledge is good to have. I'm really trying to explain that
|
|
knowledge isn't a heavy burden.
|
|
|
|
But they are not interested. They can't see any further than their own nose.
|
|
They can't see any lights in their future and the worst part is - they are
|
|
totally satisfied. They are not looking for something. They are part of the
|
|
big masses which surround us all.
|
|
|
|
I'm not trying to change them because I believe that everyone has a right
|
|
to choose what they want in life. I'm just trying to give them some insight.
|
|
Help them to see beyond the things their parents show them. I just want to
|
|
give them a chance to see for themselves that it is possible to change their
|
|
life and how they actually can control their own life, their own future.
|
|
|
|
It's hard. I remember myself, at their age. Every dream in my life, every
|
|
thought in my head, was about the day I finished school and could have a job
|
|
and move to my own apartment.
|
|
|
|
I didn't care about the "higher education" everyone else planned for me
|
|
to go on with. Oh no, just get a job and get away from my parents.
|
|
I guess it's the same with these kids (or youngsters), at least in some
|
|
cases.
|
|
|
|
So what do you tell them?
