RE: Forest Dieback & the Crushing of a Child's Spirit
Thank you so much for your remarks. It's truly cathartic when someone else can relate to your feelings.
You are correct; teaching and learning should be part of a broader objective, not solely focused on passing exams. Unfortunately, this is often not the case.
For instance, the exemplary approach demonstrated by your English teacher. I wish more teachers were like that :(
My tea hers, at least a part of them wanted to teach, help each student to understand and be the best. These tea hers no longer exis. It's just a job, they are on FB and let the students figure it out. They givr homework but 80% is never corrected, examinators sit with a long face, are bored, never corrected the paperwork because they claimed they could not open the files school provided them with. They told after the exam not before...weeks of work for the student gone. During the exam they didn't even know the class, which exam and so on.
With us teachers have about 3 times more holidays than the rest of the working class and they do no longer have fulltime jobs, just like doctors.
What is there to complain?
They can work in a factory, a shop, start their own business, find an IT job, be an online teacher, farmer or do whatever they like.
There's no need to be in a classrooom and make children feel miserable because you hate your job and are not good at it.

The core of our discussion so far is:
"The teacher should be able to enjoy thier job, and this should be reflected in their attitude towards students. Ok, if they can't enjoy, at least they should be respectful towards their students and the profession - and try to give their 100 percent to this noble job".
