It’s amazing to me how we underpay those who will be helping our future generations learn and grow. If you’re intelligent it’s a hard sell to enter education when you can make so much more in tech or business.
It's just another example of underinvestment in infrastructure that's required to maintain society. In this case obviously it's human beings rather than roads and bridges.
My suggestion… put 2 teachers in each room, a SME who covers the core material, and a disciplinarian who is good with kids. You’d get experienced professionals lining up in droves to teach deep dives into their favorite material if they trusted they wouldn’t be on the hook for managing the classroom, too.
I hope a few of my students stayed in the field. If they did then maybe even a few of them are here? You guys were the best. Thanks for the memories. It really was a good year.
