University teachers debate: I am not! I didn't! You bullshit!

11:20, November 6, 2018    Education column       I have something to say

The microenterprise heard someone say two days ago: "College teachers are so relaxed that classes are over, and there are winter and summer vacations. In addition, the class time is less than that of primary and secondary school teachers, and they don't have to be controlled by their parents like primary and secondary school teachers do. So I want to continue taking postgraduate and doctoral examinations and become a college teacher in the future."

I believe you also know that the person who said this is a college student who continued to take the postgraduate entrance exam shortly after graduation, which is why she told others about her postgraduate entrance exam.

However, what Xiaowei thought when hearing this was that people who did not know university teachers would not care if they said so. Why do college students who contact university teachers most on campus think that university teachers are a relaxed and leisurely life? It is clear that many university teachers often deny that when they hear these words: I am not! I didn't! You bullshit! (I'm not a relaxed college teacher, and I'm not so relaxed. Why are you all talking nonsense?)

Some unknown melon eaters whispered in the ears of university teachers, "Are you a university teacher? Then your work must be easy?"

When you become a college teacher, you will know that the misunderstanding of college teachers in the society is so deep that many people say that college teachers work "well", which is superficial. Beneath the good, there is a lot of sweat. So, the self debate about university teachers began ↓↓↓

   People who eat melons: College teachers have winter and summer vacations, go out to play casually and get paid. This is the only one that has hung up many careers. What are you dissatisfied with?

University teacher: In fact, during these two holidays that you admire, many of our university teachers still go to school to do scientific research and experiments, continue to write papers, prepare lessons, read books and study at home, and sometimes go on business trips to attend academic conferences. Often, winter and summer vacations are over, and many things are still unfinished.

Of course, there must be some teachers who have gone to travel as you said. That is also to arrange everything and take a few days to relax. But there are many teachers who are thinking about the process of work and travel with one heart. In addition, rich people can travel at any time. The key is that many college green peppers have no money.

   People who eat melons: Now the pressure of various professions is very great, but university teachers should have no pressure, right?

University teacher: I think that my increasingly scarce hair has explained the pressure of our university teachers, and since it has been said that all kinds of professional pressures are great, university teachers are also a profession, why should we exclude them.

   People who eat melons: You are free to go to work, and you are still free. Except for classes, other times are not your own. What do you want to do. How can we work from 9 to 5? We can't be late, can't leave early, directly deduct wages, and sometimes work overtime.

University teacher: I would rather work nine to five, so I still have hope after work. What's more, I found a very serious problem, that is, many people think that the work of university teachers, even all teachers, is just to attend classes. It seems that teachers don't have to do anything other than attend classes.

In fact, we are free to work, but we don't leave work. We still have to do everything we need to do. Our work is not just to teach students. We also do scientific research and other things. Sometimes there are even some transactional work that is more troublesome than our classes and scientific research. In addition, when you leave work after work, many people return home without having to deal with work matters. Even when we return home, we may prepare lessons for students in front of the computer, or write papers, and often revise them at night when guiding students in their graduation papers.

   People eating melons: You have high social status! University teachers, how many people envy, how many people think you are synonymous with the tall!

University teacher: Yes, we admit that university teachers have certain social status, but what if there is not enough salary to match their social status? How many green peppers are paid just enough to feed themselves? The salary of 900 yuan, 2000 yuan and 4000 yuan posted online is not false. Many university teachers are struggling at the poverty line.

The college students in the same period have worked for several years, and their salaries are constantly increasing, not to mention success. And where are our green peppers? Don't think about raising your salary if you don't get a professional title. If you don't get a salary increase, you will always get a little salary. It's even worse if you have a family. Social status does give you a sense of honor, but sometimes the reality is not as beautiful as you see.

   People who eat melons: All of you are university teachers with master's degree and doctor's degree. Even if you want to issue papers and evaluate professional titles, it is not easy to divide the time?

University teacher: You really don't know anything about the title evaluation of university teachers. Even if you are a doctor, are there still few doctoral students now? The evaluation of professional titles is not as good as that of the college entrance examination when thousands of troops crossed the single wooden bridge, but the competitive pressure is also quite great. Some schools engage in scientific research and issue papers as a rigid target, and even have the rule of "going without promotion".

Even if we work hard, not everyone can deliver the papers. How many teachers work overtime for N nights to write papers and directly call them back for rework? Moreover, the rules of professional title evaluation change year by year, and there is no chance if you are not careful. If it is so easy to evaluate professional titles, why are there so many university teachers who have been evaluated as lecturers for many years?

To be frank, people who often say that university teachers are relaxed have never known about the profession of university teachers, and have never seen the pressure and intensity of their work. But, since they have not really understood, why do these people say these words? In the eyes of many college teachers, college teachers are not easy jobs, so they want to know when college teachers begin to become easy and leisurely jobs in other people, but college teachers do not know themselves?

In fact, many college teachers really don't want to talk about their work, because they also know that in this society, every job is not easy. However, they found that the work of university teachers seems to be fixed by some people as a relaxed and leisurely occupation. As long as they slightly complain about their busy and tired work, others will think that the university teacher is really hypocritical.

But college teachers want to say that complaining does not mean that they do not like the profession of college teachers. On the contrary, some school benefits are really good, which can reduce some pressure; Serious teaching and students' listening to lectures can bring them a sense of achievement and satisfaction; If you engage in scientific research and evaluate professional titles, you will have a sense of identity with yourself after success. Many people also talk about their life and work. College teachers are not saints, and complaining is just a kind of adjustment. Returning to work, they are still college teachers full of passion for work.
