According to a recent poll by The National Education Association, 55% of teachers say they plan on leaving the profession sooner than they originally planned.
This week is National Teacher Appreciation Week, and homework help platform, Brianly, is leading the conversation behind bringing our attention back to educators!
In a recent data survey conducted by Brainly:
>> 66% of high school students think teachers should be paid more, while 74.8% stated a teacher has taught them a life lesson that they have been able to apply outside of the classroom
>> 76% of students felt more appreciative of their teachers when they learned 93% of teachers purchase classroom supplies with their own money
>> When surveyed, teachers felt the most appreciated by their students, but least appreciated by their school/school system
One Florida-based teacher stated, “I am starting to reconsider my career for the first time in my life.”
Educators also stated that the pandemic “made the profession feel more demanding and less rewarding.”
To celebrate and give back appreciation to the teaching community, Brainly, has officially launched their annual “Educator of The Year Award”. The platform is prompting students to submit an essay or video naming their favorite teacher and why they should be considered for Educator of the Year in categories such as STEM, English + History, Arts + Languages, and Mental and Physical Health.
