And it's honestly more than 2+2 stuff. They also have to fill out progress reports, report cards, and on top of lesson planning and everything else they have to do.
Could you go into a law office and do what lawyers do every day?

Could you lay bricks or do some gardening like those guys do every day?

Also, what you can do and are qualified to do are different. Many people can become teachers or gardeners, but not everyone can be a lawyer or a rocket scientist (not that the two are the same and no offense to lawyers, but I dislike lawyers just because they make things difficult).
