Teachers Deserve More Respect

September 26th 2009 01:00

In the USA, teachers are not at all well-respected by the general population outside the education community. The younger their students, the dumber the teachers are thought to be. This is insanely backwards, since education is the absolute most important factor that will lead a society towards progress and prosperity. Once all pressing health concerns of life and death are taken care of, only a challenging, secular, and diversified education can improve the welfare of all people in a society. In this way, teachers have a profound impact in shaping the citizens of tomorrow. It also seems that the teachers themselves have perpetuated this stereotype, as a certain chunk of them (from K-5, at least 30%) have chose to teach only because they didn't really know what else to do with their lives, regardless of whether of not they are ACTUALLY GOOD AT TEACHING...
I sincerely hope that in the next few years, President Barack Obama's emphasis on education helps more and more to make citizens of the USA wake up and recognize the importance of education for the future of our nation as a whole, and that whoever goes on to become the next president in 2012 (no! 2016!
