Underrated?

A teacher's works looks easy enough. You'll just talk in front of the class for the whole day, do some little paperwork, attend meetings, and do some research. Also, a teacher only teaches one or two subjects, wherein the students have to master a whopping number of ten subjects. In hindsight, the students have and always had the harder job. Or do they?

The life of a teacher is tough, it's no secret. I know this well enough through experience; through reporting in front of the class. If it already takes our best to simply get the class' attention, I can't imagine the kind of effort teachers put into their job. Enduring the students' ignorance takes strength. They will not cooperate unless they want to. And making them want to cooperate is the hard part, I never learned how to do it. In addition to all of these, teachers are full-time workers with a part-time job. They even set aside their family so they can have time for us yet we fail to appreciate or even see all their hard work. A teacher's life is underrated and it may even be the job that takes the most heart to do.

To all the teachers reading this, we want you to know that you are appreciated. Thank you for putting so much effort for our sake. You really are a hero.

Happy teacher's day.
