Teachers' Work

Working as a teacher is very interesting. Most teachers keep their jobs for a long time because they like what they do. Teachers read a lot because students can ask them questions any time. Teachers spend a lot of time preparing lessons for their students. They mark exam papers and let students know their mistakes.

Some teachers decided to do that job because they had good role model teachers teaching them when they were young. Teachers always look for good ideas to make their classes interesting for students. They use computers and read a lot online. There are some teachers’ forums on the internet to share ideas. Teachers can meet other teachers from different countries. They share their ideas online.

Teachers never stop learning. They learn from books and they also learn on the job. They learn from their co-teachers and from their students in class. Teachers also spend a lot of money on books. They buy books to learn how to teach better in class. They also do a lot of training. This training can be inside or outside school. When they finish their training, they come back to class and start using what they have learned.

A good teacher is a good actor. A good teacher makes up stories in class, so learning can be more interesting for students who have to spend long hours in class. Teachers who work in primary and high schools meet parents from time to time. They inform them about the progress of their children. They phone parents if there is anything they should know about their children.

In most courtiers around the world, working as a teacher is a rewarding thing. Teachers are respected by students and parents. Most teachers are not rich.

When a student says “thankyou” to a teacher, he or she feels rewarded for the work they do.
