Taylor Swift's "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart" becomes surprise teacher anthem

 



Taylor Swift's latest album, "The Tortured Poets Department",  holds a song that strikes a chord with teachers worldwide. The track, "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart", has become an unofficial anthem for educators who identify with its poignant lyrics. Lines like "They said, ‘Babe, you gotta fake it 'til you make it’ and I did” and  “I was grinning like I'm winning, I was hitting my marks 'Cause I can do it with a broken heart”  reflect the teachers' reality. While Swift wrote the song about her personal struggles, teachers like Madison Yoakam, a high school Spanish teacher, find it mirrors their classroom experiences. "There are days...that mentally and physically drain you," Yoakam shares, "But you still have to show up for your kids...and act like everything is OK because that is what they deserve." Teachers are often unsung heroes, facing immense pressure while receiving little recognition.  Yoakam emphasises the importance of being present for students, even when it means masking personal struggles. Social media is abuzz with educators resonating with the song. Commenters agree, suggesting a music video featuring tired teachers putting on a brave face for their students.  The outpouring highlights the emotional labour of teaching.
