Lately i've been frustrated working in this place where i teach. Its just these few students, not all whom i teach. They have no passion, they have no idea why they're in this program in the first place, and they do not know what they want from this, or what they plan to do after they graduate. Im tired of teaching them. Im not sure if its the right thing to feel. Sigh, and they are uni students, supposed to be more mature to take responsibility. I can understand if they're kids and they're doing this under obligation.
I try my best to inspire them, but all i get are deaf ears. They seem very emotionless, passionless, and soulless. How can you even play or feel music if you're like that? Imagine teaching a blank rock to play an instrument. No matter how many ways you try to get a response, you will never. Thats how i feel.
They have no idea how many people wish that they can do a music degree like my students. I guess life is like that, when one has something easily, they take it for granted. Im guilty of that too sometimes.
Sigh, life goes on. I'll still do my best in my role. Inspiring rocks. Erm, i mean inspiring the rocks.

i hear you.
just do your part and maybe do less. that sounds so bad, but teaching is two way too. you cannot be sapped off your positive chi because of them too.
but the good part is, you are not stucked with them all your life. you can breathe after teaching them. and have your life back after class. lol.
i dread teaching, so i cannot do it now. unless really financially strapped until really no choice and no other job. you know, i get cold sweat when i force myself to teach at one stage? the students took so much out of me and i just gave and gave. so, there must be a balance before it reaches this horrifying stage, haha.
Baby, you can pick up teaching life slowly and become a sucessful lecturer! remember? all your students love u! that's one of the biggest satisfaction right?
I will always support you!
