“I left the institute psychologically defeated“. With this brief but forceful phrase, @laurimathteacher began a TikTok video in which he told everything that happened to him that day.
“Is this really the job I dreamed of when I was little?” she asked herself when remembering everything she experienced at her center.
He has said that this is “a roller coaster” and that there are days she is very happy and other days bad, where you finish class and think like “what is this” and “what’s happening.” Then she has listed some problems that she sees when teaching.
The first thing is the number of students per class since “it is impossible to reach everything.” Added to this is that there are several that need special attention: from curricular adaptation, motor needs, disruptive students, etc.
“When we do not have the means to attend to that diversity, the class is torture. You cannot imagine the helplessness and anger that is felt when you want to reach all those students and you feel that you are not giving a quality education to any of them. “he stated.
After realizing all this, he commented, “overwhelm, depression and anxiety” come. “That’s what happened to me today, I have faced a class that has been impossible for me to teach.“he stated.
He regretted that investments are lacking and that she needs support staff in her class to help these students and thus “decongest the class”: “It’s not that they hinder me, it’s that I can’t give them the attention they need and that frustrates me.”
The video exceeds one million views on the Chinese social network and has already reached 130,000 likes.
