Hi Carly! I have to agree with what you said about male teachers being more present in high school rather than elementary school. As well as I 100% agree with you that there is students who think of male teacher as being easier. I have to take the blame for that as well, I personally have always thought that male teachers are more "laid back" or easier to get around.But just like you I also believe that teaching is a job for everyone. I think teaching focuses more on being passionate to teach the young ones. A good teacher shouldnt be classified based on their gender but instead on how well he/she is doing their job. To be a good teacher one must have passion,love, and patience. Gender shouldnt be setting gaps in the teaching profession or any other profession.I do have a question for you, what do you think that we as future teachers can do to get rid of those gender stereotypes?
Hi Mariela, i agree with you on how you believe that a good teacher shouldnt be classified based off of their gender. gender should has nothing to do with being a good teacher and i wish our society could see that. i think that we can get rid of these steotypes by adding more males into the teaching profession and show society that they are just as capable as women are.
Hello Carly! I enjoyed reading your post for this week. You brought up such a good point that I am guilty of and had never even paid much thought to. I always felt as though my male teachers were more laid back. I looked forward to their classes and felt that they were less strict. As I look back I am not so sure that they are necessarily more laid back rather my female teachers had to be stricter to be taken more seriously and the students lacked the same level of respect for them that they had with the male teachers. At my job, I have four managers. Only one of them is a woman. Now that I am older I simply look at her with admiration and understand that she is harder on us than others to show that she earned her position. She is a wonderful manager and I hold nothing but respect. But children lack that understanding at a young age but is it their fault or society's? If we can begin to teach them from a young age that women are not only meant to be caretakers, maybe they will have a different behavior. But we also need to tackle the issue within the system in which women have to constantly work harder to earn the same level of respect their male coworkers receive.
Hi Bella, that you for your feedback, you had a great pint about how women teachers are sometimes strict because they want to be taken seriously like male teachers are. hopefully one day we can take away this gender steoeotype in our society and give men and women the same opportunities. both genders experience issues in this profession and its time we put an end to it.
