LMAO I can’t read so I thought this was saying the average age of a Korean teacher is 16
lol this is the most confusing display of data. I immediately wondered why does Korea have 16 year old teachers.
Do older or younger teachers teach better? Stats?
I wonder if the data reflects different turnover rates or an increase/decrease in the number of teachers. For example, nearly 25% of the UK’s teachers are under 30, so either more graduates are joining the field or the older teachers aren’t staying in as long. Could be both though.
