Becoming a teaching assistant is basically a great career choice. It is a very fulfilling path of profession to choose. That said, just like in the case of any other career path, this one too is not without its many different challenges. Here are some of the main challenges that are faced by teaching assistants.
Children come with different types of personalities and requirements and it is not like you get a manual to handle them. Each case is unique and the kind of methods that will need to be implemented will also be different from one another. When a teaching assistant has to deal with difficult student behavior it can be straining on them. Sometimes this can be a constant issue throughout the school day.
Almost all of the teaching assistants say that they are finding the workload expectations unfeasible. They seem to be given a lot of things to handle and very little time in which to cover all of it. This has often reduced teaching assistant to tears as their mental and physical health both take a toll in the race against time to finish all of the tasks that they are being allocated as best as possible.
One of the other commonly voiced concerns that many teaching assistants seem to have is that there is a lack of a clearly outlined job description and that there are multiple roles assigned. This lack of clarity confuses them and also means that they need to be working on many different roles on a daily basis.
While there may be many challenges faced by the teaching assistant community it still remains that this job is one that is on high demand and is also rather rewarding. At 1Training you have a whole section of programmes that can help you pave your way towards this career.
