Well, for me, teaching is a demanding job but not tough. It is rewarding, I feel proud when my students are successful. Besides, teaching is authoritative, it gives teachers a powerful tool to manage learners. While managing employees could be tougher as their incintives  are different and their relation with managers is governed by multi perspectives.

It is managing, and tough a bit. But not so impossibly difficult. It is almost similar to managing office workers

Any job that you do not like, it will be tough.

So, if you like what you work you will work what you like

Teaching is an intersting job when done by fairly treated teachers who love what they do. It is a tough job when done by poorly treated people treating it as just a means to keep food on the tables.

I see that managing employees is tougher job to do than managing students. Needs and wants of employees is far more complicated than those of students.

I think that if you have the passion for teaching then you'll never feel its difficulty. As for teaching children, I find it a bit exhausting as you have to deliver the lesson through songs, games, flashcards, etc... it needs creativity and patience. If you think about teaching adults, it has its difficulties too especially old ones. But AGAIN if you have the passion you'll never feel the difficulty. As for the comparison between teaching children and managing employees, well i think if you like what you do, you'll never consider it difficult...

It is far tougher to manage employees. Most students have no concept of the long term consequences they face if they are unruly/disobedient or unwilling to learn. Employees know that in the worst case scenario they could be fired with all the social and financieal implications that would bring.
