Teachers, Teachers, Teachers – Wherefore Art Thou, Teachers? | Kindredspirit23's Blog

Teachers, Teachers, Teachers – Wherefore Art Thou, Teachers?

Great article, 5 minutes to read, longer if you watch the video embedded.

I taught for six wonderful years (well, 5 were wonderful), before my stroke and a bit afterward.

I feel horrible about where it all is now. Testing is not everything…someone important needs to hear and acknowledge that and then fix it.

Namaste,

It really made me cry. I was very close to my mother. Sometimes we get impatient and feel very sorry when parents are gone. When we get old then we realize all this. Thanks for sharing.

Great article. I agree that the testing is getting out of control and teaching is a under appreciated and under funded profession.
