Recently, I've been feeling disillusioned with my job as a teacher. The daily grading of homework, health observations, and other small tasks have been piling up. I find myself thinking, "Why do I have to do all of this?"
I know that I shouldn't be harboring such feelings.
I'm aware that all these tasks are connected to the children's well-being, and I understand their importance. Nevertheless, I can't help but feel that the burden is too heavy.
When I first became a teacher, I worked with the mindset that "learning is fun" and "just as someone changed my perspective on learning, now it's my turn to do the same for others."
However, the current state of the education field doesn't allow for such dreams or sense of fulfillment. There's no room for flexibility, and it's breaking teachers' spirits. The situation doesn't allow for any digressions.
Unfortunately, my spirit has been broken. Right now, I truly... somewhere in my heart, I want to revive my passion.
Of course, I'm aware that even if I recover with this mindset, it won't benefit the children.
However, I want to take another look at myself, consider "what education truly means," and approach my work with renewed perspective.
