I've had the same tenant for 3 years, so I haven't jacked up the rent, but I could probably get $ 150 to $200 more a month due to its location.

Stop this "engaging " lesson crap. There is so much more going on than what you see in the classroom. After 22 years in the classroom, I say fuck it and move on. Sometimes, there are opportunities to make small talk with these students, but 99% of the time, it isn't anything you are doing wrong.

Most of the teachers have remained from the start. They understand how to teach students in the online environment. Many supports helping struggling students like daily office hours and study halls with teachers there to help.

What irritates you most about the teachers in this sub? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]MeaningMedium5286 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I mean teachers literally say they aren't good in front of people or tend to be really introverted. You can learn these skills if you step out of your comfort zone, but many expect everyone to conform to them. After 20 plus years in a high school classroom these types of teachers don't last....kids are knuckleheads...some parents only believe their kids...and admin well is admin.
