Last semester, an intern male teacher came to the children's class and once talked about it with his classmate's mother. My mother is a little girl at home. She said that she always feels a little uncomfortable when she thinks that it is a male teacher who takes care of kindergarten students, especially little girls. It can be seen that from the heart of parents, everyone does not accept male teachers.
The number of male teachers in primary schools is ok, mainly in kindergartens, and there are almost no male teachers. Why are there few male teachers in kindergartens? I think there are several reasons.
As mentioned at the beginning of the article, when it comes to kindergarten teachers, it is easier for everyone to accept female teachers. In people's cognition, kindergarten teachers are "nannies". If someone asks you where you work, the boy says he is a kindergarten teacher. It is estimated that few people around him can understand him and agree that he chose this career. Therefore, based on people's general concept, there are few boys who apply for kindergarten teachers' majors, and even fewer teach in kindergartens after graduation.
The work of kindergarten teachers is very hard, and all aspects such as teaching, life and diet should be taken into account. There are at least 20 students in a class, and sometimes parents can't take care of them at home alone, let alone two or three teachers with dozens of people. Moreover, schools need careful, considerate, good-natured and friendly teachers, which are more in line with the image of female teachers.
In addition, it is really inconvenient for male teachers to take care of female students, especially in recent news reports of many teachers' bad behavior. If male teachers take care of girls, it is easy for parents to complain.
Gay men often bear the task of supporting their families, while kindergarten teachers are not only hard, but also have low income. Many boys would rather work in education and training institutions than choose hard kindergarten teachers.
Although there are fewer male teachers, it is good for children's development to gradually introduce male teachers into kindergartens. Male teachers and female teachers certainly have different ideas about raising children, just like men and women have different logical thinking. If we look at the children raised by mothers and those raised by fathers around us, we will find that they are different in many ways.
