>> I have become convinced that the vast majority of school teachers are made from the dumbest of all college students.
The greatest underachievers next to the unemployed.
Well like the old saying goes
Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach."
I've got a cousin who went to college to play softball, in the interim she got a teaching degree.
When 4 years of play time was over, she went back home, and NEVER ONCE looked for a teaching job.
I'm convinced that the vast majority of school teachers are basically the hairdressers of the college world. Somebody told them they had to do something with their life, and that they had to have college, so they took teaching.
Although I later got a teaching certificate, I took my college classes as a physics/chemistry major, not a teaching major.
The teaching majors in my classes took a watered-down version of the tests we took and received better grades for less work.
As a sub, I sometimes correct the lesson plans of the math and science teachers I sub for (it really pisses some off but some appreciate the help).
