I used to work in a school with an English teacher who couldn't spell, and who berated one student for correcting his spelling.

Every time I brought this up to administration, I was not only ignored, I was personally insulted by the admin--EVERY TIME.

These are the people teaching your kids, America.

I have a relative who is so pathetically stupid I am always stunned she can even function. She went to college as an adult and is teaching public school in Florida.

Do they have some kind of degree plan/work program for illiterates there?

I’ve received notes from my sons’ teachers that were unintelligible. They have no grasp of the English language even though they grew up in the US. I’ve returned notes with the request they be rewritten in English.

No, I'm the person teaching my kids, and the stuff you're talking about is part of why their classroom is our kitchen table...and the real world.
