You can't say there aren't some shitty teachers out there. There are those who reach out to their students and try and help the ones who are struggling (not due to being lazy) and there are those who don't give two shits and hate their job. If all a sudent is supposed to do is look in a book and find the information on there own, what is the purpose of even having a teacher.

The whole idea of being a teacher is to "teach" not to have the kids teach themselves. Yes, the student needs to study too, but the fact of the matter is there are a lot of bad teachers out there. I have come across quit a few in both public and private schools as well as at my current college.

I have also come across some amazing teachers in my school history in all three areas.

Don't resent the fact that I think some teachers deserve to be fired. Simply don't become on of them yourself. Care about your students and do what you can to help them suceed. Don't pass kids simply to get them the hell out your class or because you feel bad for them.

There are garbage men that suck at their jobs, why do you expect it to be any different with teachers.

I come from an area with some of the worst schools in the country, so that has a lot to do with my views to.
