Thoughts on Teaching

Teaching is one of the most important professions we have in this world. Passing on the knowledge and skills to the next generation. The importance of that can not be overstated. We need teachers, and good ones who care about the subject and their students. Because the only thing worse than having no teacher, is having a bad teacher. Here is some advice for the bad teachers out there.

Stop taking your problems out on your students and teach a class for once. Teaching is not watching a movie and saying go home. Nor is critiquing telling people they suck and to do better while never giving any advice on how to do that. And Advice is not saying do something easier and then belittling that person in front of the class for following that advice. If you feel your students aren't doing as well as you would like than maybe you stop blaming everyone else and become a better teacher. Or a teacher at all. Because no real teacher would go out of their way to insult their students, to mock them behind their backs to their classmates.


Not everyone can be a teacher. Some people just don't have the patience and that is ok, until they get a classroom of their own and they go out of their way to break their students just for laughs. That is not acceptable and should not be tolerated by any school, let alone one that the students have to pay to attend.
