There is an expression in the English speaking language about teachers: Those who cannot do, teach.
In Switzerland, they have a similar expression: When a teacher gets hit by a bus, what do you see? Vacation pamphlets go flying.
After a discussion with another teacher here in Switzerland, it seems that no matter where you go, people have this idea that teachers get too much time off, work short hours and have easy jobs
Especially right now, in a time of Job Action in BC, I wish more people could truly understand the complexities of being a teacher.
