Not everyone wants to be a teacher or even dreamed about it but everyone becomes a student. Since everyone must have been a student then someone needs to be a teacher.
I, myself is training to become a teacher someday. If you are going to ask me on what time I wake up everyday, well it's 4:30 am and oh, I usually sleep at 12:00am. Yes, it's quite tiring and stressful but I bet you, it feels so overwhelmed being able to impart new learning to your students. Another thing is the environment because I am new to it and Northern Cebu, Medellin to be specific is really a good place.
I know every student wants to know what their teacher do every hour and every minute that they have so here's the list of the daily routine and some special tasks that the teacher needs to do.
- First of all, the teacher needs to wake up early. I already have mentioned the time earlier. She/he needs to prepare herself/himself to school and to students.
- After arriving in school, the teacher should check his/her students. Just like attendance, uniform, and even assignments.
- During some vacant time of the teacher, she/he will check the outputs of the students. She/he needs to make sure that every students are being updated.
- At his/her time for discussion or for lesson, he/she should give her full energy and resources so that the students will learn something from him/her.
- When it's almost time for dismissal of classes, the teacher should give the students some final instructions or even assignments.
- After the students have gone out of the classroom, the teacher will ensure the cleanliness and the orderliness of the room. She should never forget to make the room ready for tomorrow's school day.
- As the teacher arrives at home, she should check the house and his/her personal tasks.
- When dinner time is finished, the teacher have to plan for tomorrow's classes. She should plan it out very well so that learning will be a lot of fun.
- After deciding on what to do on tomorrow's class, the teacher will now then prepare for the visual aids and even for his/her materials. Everything should be set before going to sleep.
- While the teacher is laying in the bed, he/she still thinks about his/her students.
The above mentioned are just some typical tasks that your teacher is doing. Most of the teachers are doing much more work just to prepare their students for the future.
Even if I'm not yet a professional teacher, I still feel the pressure of molding the future of the children. Indeed, being a teacher is the noblest job of all. But sometimes, looked back on how we love or hate our teacher of the past.
