I do not envy teaching right now. I am not one for a reason, id lose my cool. Parents giving teachers grief need to take a good look at what their child currently does with the time out of school and how they ingest media because soon kids wont be able to read short novels or its going to take weeks because they can read 2 pages at a time before their mind wanders off again.


another good contrast to look at. if you talk to the parents in SE Asia (my experience teaching abroad) they will take it as a constructive criticism to work on seriously with their kids. if you talk to the parents here, they'll get defensive and in their ego about how THEIR kid couldn't be the problem. it must be me or some other kid.

The trick is starting them off on books they will enjoy .. then trade in some healthier books once they have some reading skills leveled up :P

Try being an Admin. We can’t even keep a full staff of “certified” teachers. The pay isn’t worth the trouble nowadays.

Doesn’t mean it’s a contribution to humanity. By definition it is not. It would only affect the people around that person.

I think the best thing the Admiral says here is "life is not fair and you will fail often"

how the justice system treats offenders needs to be centered more on rehabilitation than on maximum pain

how offenders view their sentencing should be centered more around how they can get better than on how they were the victim of circumstances which they justify their crimes with
