Poor Teaching?

Teaching is a noble profession. It needs love and caring spirit.
You must have the love and enthusiasm to teach the unknown to be known,the weak to be strong and the poor to be rich in knowledge.
You just can't talk and read only in the class.
You just can't be boastful of your academic records in the past.
You are a teacher supposedly respected by your students.

We have come across news about the poor state of teaching in schools.
Teachers are negatively reported about absenteeism in class,talk and chalk only,sit and talk,playing handphones, always engaged with co-curricular activities,reading from text,scold and angry with students,poor command of language,poor communication skills , answer scripts not returned but marks are given,......

Of course they are good and dedicated teachers in the schools also. But it's minority lot only.
Normally those teachers are trained in the 60s and 70s. They show responsibility and interest in work. They are always available in school unless they are immobile.

I have a woman collegue who was pregnant but felt sick and was difficult to move around in the school. She never took any leave to be absent from school. She arranged and used the school resource centre to be her class. Her students came to attend her classes there. She never complained about any pain or suffering.
Nowadays it's difficult to observe such characteriatics in school.
