How to Improve Rural Teachers' Professional Happiness

Happiness is people's subjective inner feelings. Happiness is doing what you like, and the result is recognized by all people and society. What kind of job a person likes is not only sensitive to the talent of this job, but also a need in his heart. What do you like? Like itself is a lasting motivation, which means conscious investment and indicates the success of the cause. Some people divide the pursuit of life from low to high into five levels, from survival, society, love, dignity to life value. If your job is what you really like, you gain social recognition through hard work, which is called happiness.

In this world, everyone should have their own career, but occupation is not equal to career. Occupation is just a means of making a living. What is a profession? There are two standards. First, do what you really like and have a strong interest in the work itself, not because of interest, but because you like it. Second, because of this profession, the value of life has been realized. People have two spirits, one is professionalism, dedication and love of work. There is also a spirit, which is a higher level than professionalism. I am determined to engage in this career all my life, and always have a sense of self-achievement, self-satisfaction and self-realization. Profession is still an external post requirement, but ambition is an internal conscious requirement. Teachers need professionalism and more professional awareness.

To make a living as a teacher is low-level. When a person is interested in something, he will have an emotion when he does it again. When he does these things with emotion, dedication and enjoyment are inseparable. When he gives, he enjoys it. This is the high realm of human existence.

In the past, when we talked about teachers' morality, we usually talked more about self-discipline, dedication and personality, but rarely talked about teachers' development and improvement, and rarely talked about teachers' needs. In fact, the teacher created himself while giving, and lit himself up while burning himself to illuminate others. A teacher is also a person with a sense of life, life and value, not just a machine to master and spread knowledge. Every year on Teachers' Day, we have to read two poems: "The silkworms in spring will spin silk until they die, and the candles will drain the wick every night." Teachers seem to have become a "miserable" profession, with nothing to do but shed tears and turn wax torches into ashes.

A teacher once said a classic sentence: "I don't want to be a candle, but I am a light bulb." When you give me electricity, it can shine, brighter than a candle, happier than a candle and longer than a candle. "

The greatest and selfless character of a teacher is that he never envies his students' success, but wants them to succeed. He always teaches them the best things. Teachers regard "shine on you is better than blue" as their own values, and never worry about students surpassing themselves. On the contrary, the sooner students succeed, the greater their fame and level. The more they surpass themselves, the happier teachers will be. If teachers are like the sun, it is a glorious thing to let students bathe in their light and warmth. If teachers can make all students become the sun, everyone will shine, which is a very happy thing.

The real mission of teachers is to follow the principle of "life first", stimulate students' vitality, improve their quality of life and promote their happiness, which is the ultimate goal of teachers. The process of school education is not only the process of teachers guiding students to seek truth, be kind and love beauty, but also the process of guiding students to experience happiness. As the famous educator Suhomlinski said: "Schools should be the source of rich morality. Make every student happy and happy in a certain activity field. This kind of activity is the beauty and perfection of morality, and get the happiness of experiencing his own sense of personal dignity from noble activities full of lofty moral significance. " Teachers are a happy profession. Only happy teachers can teach happy students. The happiness of students is a successful experience, and the happiness of teachers is a peak experience. Only by constantly improving teachers' professional happiness can teachers' educational and teaching behavior be full of affection, enthusiasm and passion, and full of sparks of wisdom. This is a subtle and powerful force that will affect students in tangible and intangible ways.

A recent survey is enough to make us ponder. Someone asked three questions. The first question is, if you think it is an honor to be a teacher, please raise your hand. Everyone in the audience raised their hands in unison. The second question is that when the teacher is happy, please raise your hand, and those who raise their hands begin to hesitate, with confusion in their eyes; The third question is when the teacher is happy, please stand up. The whole room was silent and no one stood up. What does this make us think? That is, how to build a teaching staff according to the people-oriented concept. While continuing to strengthen teachers' self-discipline, personality and dedication education, respect, understanding, development, improvement, warmth and consideration are also the proper meanings of teachers' morality construction.

Teachers' professional happiness comes from teachers' professional consciousness, which requires the edification of excellent culture, the construction of educational platform, the construction of happy education field and the solution of vital interests. This kind of happiness is noble and lasting. Teachers' interests are twofold. On the one hand, they are the long-term interests, fundamental interests and overall interests of teachers; On the other hand, they are teachers' practical interests, direct interests and concrete interests. The former is the starting point and the latter is the breakthrough, that is, to seek the latter by solving the former. For example, the development of young teachers is facing great competitive pressure. There is a phenomenon in universities: scientific research projects and scientific research funds are tilted and piled up to qualified teachers. It can be said that some teachers' research funds will never be used up, and research projects will never be completed. Some people joked that this is called "academic boss" and "academic contractor". On the other hand, young teachers are facing great competitive pressure in seeking scientific research funds. How to build a fair and just career development platform for young teachers and stand out from the crowd is really a big problem.
