Teacher Burnout
I chose my topic because I, like my classmates, am entering the education profession. On many social media applications, teachers and ex-teachers are bringing light to the conditions in which they work and why they are no longer staying in the teaching profession. I have second-hand experience with teachers' conditions, working in a school, and having family members in the profession. My mother is a teacher, and I have been surrounded by my mother’s friends my whole life. I now work at a high school, assisting secondary English teachers in the classrooms. You would not believe the number of times a teacher has tried to stop me from being a teacher because they have been taken advantage of and disregarded by everyone and do not wish me to take the same path and feel miserable later on in life.
