Student Stands up to Lazy Teacher
When a person is asked about previous teachers, instantly they will always remember a couple, but struggle to remember the rest. Teachers that are easily remembered are usually the ones who managed to inspire and motivate. There is teachers who take their job very personally and manage to touch students hearts. The next teachers who are remembered, are the ones who did a horrible job, the ones who caused stress, boredom and who did not take their teaching job seriously. Lastly the average teacher, who didn't manage to make a difference in your live, good or bad. Most teachers fall in the last category, which will vary often depending on the school district. Teachers in rich areas may be better motivated about work, while teachers in poor areas may be facing difficulties themselves, therefore causing a lack of motivation. Students and teachers need to work in teams, and in order to do that they have to understand each others situation. In many cases there is no communication, but I believe that the teacher, being the educated more experienced person should be the one to start a relationship with their students "you want kinds to do better, you gotta touch their freaken hearts"-Jeff Bliss Rant. When teachers take the time to care for their students, like Andrade does, the students will participate and perform better. In many cases students are afraid to participate; the teacher will often get mad and assume the student is careless, when in reality there is only lack of trust and understanding from both sides. Personally I don't think most teachers are negligent intentionally, but they follow patters they are unable to see and break. Like Jeff Bliss Rant mentions, teachers shouldn't just hand out packets and expect great results. I think some teachers do this because that is the way they were taught to teach, but that is no excuse for this inefficient way of teaching to continue. This is an issues students might take personally, but in reality it affects everyone "you gotta take this job serious, this is the future of this nation"-Jeff Bliss Rant. Everyone needs to cooperate to make a change, if we want our nation to continue to be successful. I want to be able to provide a more efficient education system for future generations, as well as a better overall environment for everyone else. Many flaws are being exposed about our education system. Something has to be done about it now, before it is too late.
