the Response to the submitter ”I am looking for a course for us soon-to-retire” (27 december). Personally I will probably not have any problem with filling my days with sense content, however, are also thinking I how I will cope the high tempo I have as a teacher.
I know that the public think it is ridiculous that teachers complain of many and mentally heavy tasks when comparing with, for example, the construction crew, and other manual workers, but the fact is that I don’t have the energy to anything beyond the world of work.
I’m too tired to do anything other than work. I will be home washed out and fall asleep early in front of the tv.
and think I have a great job, but to have six lessons, introduces six new classes every day, where I’ll be on the top and helskärpt all the time, wears and eats something huge. It would be enough with four lessons per day or a shorter work week.
I have worked in 38 years but have long since become frånsprungen in their earnings of the younger newly employed colleagues, despite the fact that we are working with the same students. The teaching profession has unfortunately lost its charm and older people are considered apparently no longer do an adequate job, our experience despite.
It is stressful and almost offensive to see and hear in the media about teachers ‘ salaries have risen so enormously, when we older people know that it only applies to the younger.
not working to change for us older people. We should be able to be seen as an asset in the schools for students who may not have, or hits, for their older relatives. And their younger colleagues can benefit from our long experience and expertise.
for example, We should have shorter working hours. It would be a sensible bet to get us to be able to be left until we are 65! It is the lack of teachers in Sweden.
