I haven’t come across many teachers who say they are underpaid. The complaints are usually working conditions. Growing class sizes take away from their ability to do their job to the best of their ability, and lack of supports for kids that need extra/special attention, like kids with mental health issues or learning disabilities etc..
It’s dealing with those things that are often outside the scope of their expertise and training that make the job difficult at times.
I also agree with those saying it’s a great job if that’s your sort of thing, but adding those extra supports in schools is beneficial for our society as a whole.
