[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm a former teacher (secondary - so some of your descriptions don't apply). I'm not a big union supporter, as you are. I left teaching for a "high status" public sector job (of course it was higher paid, too) but the feedback I got indicated that I was at least a good teacher. In my book, there's "difficult" and there's "hard." Difficult relates to whether you need special talents or special coursework, or whether you needed years and certain training or practice to develop your craft. Hard relates to whether it's not easy to get through a day, either because of the hours or the conditions. In my experience, teaching was both difficult and hard. I won't go into details for you, and of course there are many factors that play in to each teacher's situation. I appreciate your "wanting to be on the side of teachers," although I'm not sure what that means to you. [/quote]
