They invest their efforts, time and energy into various other roles in an educational institution. 'Preparedness' is assumingly the tag stuck to every teacher, without a choice. On any given day, they're obliged to perform different duties, by caring minimum on 'the type of job' as such.

Apparently, teachers play roles which influences the students directly or indirectly; like counsellors, literally being alternate parents to students, psychologists, social workers, secretaries, nurse, guide, friend, mentor, observer, disciplinarian, entertainer and so on; within the confinement of an educational environment.
