“Jika 33 dari 34 siswa gagal, masalahnya bukan di rumah”: Guru kelas satu menjelaskan dengan berlinang air mata betapa “melelahkan” mengajar dan memicu perdebatan: Apakah ini kesalahan keluarga atau guru?
34 siswa berusia enam dan tujuh tahun, satu guru, dan hanya satu yang lulus.
Carol Fernandez mengajar kelas satu dan merekam video TikTok yang memperlihatkan dirinya menangis di depan kamera.
Ia mengatakan bahwa dari 34 muridnya, hanya satu anak perempuan yang lulus tes kata berfrekuensi tinggi. “Aku kelelahan”, katanya.
Ia terus bekerja tanpa henti selama dua bulan dan mengatakan tubuhnya menyuruhnya untuk memperlambat ritme, tetapi ia harus mengesampingkan perasaannya dan fokus pada anak-anak. Ada sesuatu yang membuatnya takut: ia menuliskan kata itu di papan tulis, dan beberapa siswa menyalinnya dengan keliru. Ia bertanya-tanya apakah ini kesalahannya.
Menurutnya, sebagian masalahnya ada di rumah, meskipun itu hanya pendapatnya. Banyak guru membalas bahwa mereka mengalami hal yang sama.
Pengguna lain percaya bahwa dengan begitu banyak siswa di kelas, tidak ada yang bisa meraih hasil lebih baik. Dan beberapa orang berpendapat bahwa jika hampir tidak ada yang lulus, tanggung jawabnya tidak bisa dibebankan kepada keluarga.
Apakah masalahnya ada di ruang kelas, di rumah, atau pada sistem? 🤔
I went back and forth about sharing this video, but today was honestly one of the hardest days of the school year so far. I love being a teacher. I truly believe this is my calling, and I wouldn’t share the parts of my classroom that I do if I didn’t care so deeply about my students and education. But I also think we need to be honest about how hard this job can be. It’s exhausting. It’s heartbreaking to see how many students are struggling with reading and how much support they need. Sometimes you leave school thinking about all the things you wish you could do differently, all the students you wish you could reach a little more, and everything you’re carrying into the next day. I share so much of my classroom because I want other teachers to feel less alone, and I want people to understand what teaching really looks like. Not just the cute classroom setups, the activities, and the good days, but the days that remind you just how much this job asks of you. I love my students. I love what I do. And I can be grateful for this calling while also admitting that some days are really, really hard. If you’re a teacher having one of those days, I hope you know you’re not alone. ❤️ #TeacherTok#TeachersOfTikTok#ElementaryTeacher#Teaching#Literacy
