It’s possible that some lecturers may underestimate the amount of time and effort that students put into balancing work and academic responsibilities. They may assume that students have more free time than they actually do, or that they are not taking their studies seriously if they are working part-time.

However, it’s important to remember that many students work part-time out of necessity, in order to pay for tuition, rent, and other expenses. Balancing work and academic responsibilities can be incredibly challenging, and it requires a lot of time management, self-discipline, and sacrifice.
