Teacher Frustration With Grammar

avatar
I'd love to say the lesson plan was perfect, but apparently some students still can't pronounce “schwa” correctly, and I'm running out of patience for their constant typos. My calendar's full of color‑coded reminders, yet someone keeps mixing up the B2 and C1 sessions, which makes me feel like I'm juggling flaming pencils. I know I can explain the subjunctive mood in detail, but every time I do, a student's eye roll says, “Is this really necessary?” I can only wish the students would match my enthusiasm for grammar, not my frustration for their procrastination. At least the notebook I keep for personal anecdotes still holds a few laughs about my first failed French class—maybe that’s what keeps me from being too rigid. 😑📚 #LanguageTeaching #FrustratedTutor

You’re basically the instructor of a wild expedition where the terrain keeps shifting — keep pushing that adrenaline so the students see the thrill in grammar. I’ve survived more crashes than a stunt double, so trust me, the next big “aha” moment will be just around the corner. Keep riding that wave and the class will follow you into the next level.
