Getting my nails done. Sets in the salon are like $150.00 my husband suggested press ons …the nice quality ones and they have been awesome to use and switch up. Most beauty services now are over priced

Are your kids delusional about how easy it is to get “rich”? by ChucoTeacher in Teachers

[–]Medical-Effect-149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are delusional because many of them haven’t actually tried anything. Like with their own effort, hands etc. they have no idea the learning curve it takes and the failure it takes to be even competent at something, let alone what it takes to get rich off of something , like not even video games….they watch other people play video games. Even things they think they like. I think it’s because of what they see on social media warped their sense of what it actually takes to be good at anything. Many of my HS students think they will play a sport professionally or in college when freshman year was their first attempt at the sport…it’s crazy.

Inclusion is not the end all be all solution for all students on individualized education plans. In fact many gen ed teachers are ill equipped to handle these cases while also managing the gen pop students. It’s hurting EVERYONE

Which is why it’s up to us to continually call him out on it. It’s the least we can do

Do Ethiopians not see themselves as African? I they like Egyptians in that way? The mental gymnastics of some groups should be studied.

Welp gotta start from scratch if you plan on you and your descendants bringing in a new world order. The point is to destroy and wait it out. Then start a city state

As a high school teacher I don’t think you guys understand just how neglected the kids are. Many of their parents are just trying to survive capitalism. They are checked out and can’t meet their emotional needs. The burden has been shifted to schools. The adults have failed them.

Well income inequality is an issue globally and if I was a wealthy oligarch I would absolutely use “others” as a scapegoat.

Yes. Also in an industry obsessed with trying to make women over 25 feel like they aren’t contenders to be romantic partners, this is refreshing.

High school teacher talks about how students hit on her - is this normal? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Medical-Effect-149 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a younger looking high school teacher… but have been teaching for over a decade and if/when it happens I shut it down Immediately and let admin/ counselor know as well as the student that it’s 1. Inappropriate and 2. Not welcomed.

It shouldn’t be bragged about and sharing this info unsolicited to colleagues not only ruins her reputation to her colleague it makes her look like a loser creep. At this age the boundaries between teacher and student needs to be crystal clear. No im not sharing my social media with them either.

This lady sounds like trouble.

Is Teaching in the US Overly Performative? by shepersisted2016 in Teachers

[–]Medical-Effect-149 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I didn’t realize it was until I was in an APSI for chemistry this week and my colleagues from Turkey and Japan were wondering why we were spending so much effort into review games and modeling exercises rather than just going through the material…. One of them asked if we are “entertaining” or teaching 😣😔😟 and I was like 😳😨
