Male Kindergarten Teachers Are Here to Help.
Many studies show that older boys benefit from having male teachers.
There hasn’t been as much research on the youngest students and their teachers — in large part because there are so few male teachers in early education to begin with.
Social-emotional learning has given them vocabulary to express their feelings, said Greg Smedley-Warren, 45, a kindergarten teacher in Nashville.
“It’s like unlocking a new market of potential educators.”The male kindergarten teachers said that from their perspective, the fulfillment of the job generally outweighed the negatives.
