Teacher Offers Look at What It's Like Educating Middle Schoolers

A teacher offered a look at what it’s like to educate middle schoolers, particularly boys. This glimpse of what it’s trying to reach these youngsters will likely be very relatable to other teachers and even to parents of teenagers. Watch this short but hilarious clip to see just how challenging it is to be a teacher, especially when you’re teaching middle school.

Hopefully, whatever you do, you do not hate and dread going to work. That would be a horrible way to live. You may, by chance, like and enjoy what you do. However, no matter how much you may like your job, no position is perfect. There will always be situations and circumstances that are not ideal when it comes to our job. Nothing in this world is perfect, so why should we expect our jobs to be?  Every position has its ups and its downs.

This is especially true for teachers. Like everyone else, they have their good days and their bad days. But I have never tried teaching someone who isn’t all that interested in learning. That sounds like a horrible situation. However, that’s a reality many teachers face every day, and that’s not a great environment for learning at all. Thankfully, that is not how this teacher describes teaching middle schoolers. Instead, he calls it “pure entertainment.”

In a clip posted on YouTube, a teacher hysterically shows what it’s like to teach seventh- and eighth-grade boys.

Hilariously, the very first thing he points out in the clip is how they make random, unexplainable noises for no apparent reason whatsoever. But that’s teenagers, right? There isn’t usually an explanation for most of what they do.

Also, this teacher says that they tend to overuse the word “Bruh,” saying it 1,000 times a day.

It’s clear from this short but uproarious clip that teaching those youngsters is certainly an adventure.

James 3:1 “Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more harshly than others.”

May we make an effort to remember the historical basis of our faith by reading the Bible––including the books that we might deem as less interesting or important––and apply what they teach in our lives.
