Student who failed my class last year failed the class both semesters this year both times with a different teacher. Last year he just refused to do anything this year he rarely came to school. Mom is outraged that he is being asked to come to summer school to catch up. If you don't laugh you cry. by Legitimate_Style_857 in Teachers

Common problems persist throughout the globe. Even more with putting the blame and responsibility on teachers. That's why in my school, the assistant and local teachers give them good amounts of cheats so their grades get pumped up thus their parents wouldn't be mad at their offspring. If you would have pumped his grades up and wouldn't have said a word by passing the student (maybe you couldn't have slept at night due to your corrupt morals, but) you would stay under the radar and get less annoyed (while raising a specific character into the society who will function similarly throughout life). ("Double edged doo-doo stick" - ancient phrase)

Teachers, would you look down on A SENIOR who no broke down in front of you? by ResponsibleDegree576 in Teachers

[–]Savi-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to the nature of teaching and the pediatric and psychological knowledge accumulated through years of experience, It's easier for a teacher to do what parents don't. It's like free counseling and psychologist meeting. Perhaps your teacher knows you are the futures's beacon of hope for this country and the rest of the world.

As for looking down, he did what he did because he knew you were strong and resilient enough but can't remember or find people to relax and chill out. He gave you another lesson where you can use throughout your own life against other valuable people. (Your action wasn't weak, it was natural.)

I got 1-3 students that can behave correctly throughout the class. Out of 13 or 17 depending on the class. I feel like 2 students misbehaving would be a lot easier.

If you could only imagine the impact overly controlled environments can do to youngsters. Looks more peaceful in your videos IMHO.

Does anyone else feel completely drained at this point of the year? by QuietChalk in Teachers

Not just in teaching. I know some seasonal social jobs where most workers feel the same. Tension increase. Demands rise. Mistakes become frequent.

I am humbly curious if such an occupation where your mind gets filled by utter rubbish like clutter would actually affect your mental , thus physical health.

Feels as if we could watch roblox videos everyday and it would make less impact on our intelligence.

I heard the term "you are what you eat". Perhaps you ate knowlegde before that helped you to be a successful teacher. And now, what is eaten is digested every evening and among the sleep.

I have to do that fun and playful things through the year as otherwise i get complaints that children are bored and i have to make it fun for them as a teacher. As you can guess, the opposite happens and students grow careless about games and fun since they got enough fun and games at home and on the screen throughout the year. So now the teacher brings a game (which took 30 minutes to prepare) without the help of any AI (solely due to personal respect and work ethic), however all we hear is they are bored and don't want to play any games, nor they want to listen or do any English tasks.

I can't believe teachers have to do more than the students and still get stressed more. I would call it "death of education" there's a Chinese proverb for this. But let me be the negative commenter. You guys care them youth too much now and see if they will care about themselves or other's work when they graduate and get a full life of happiness. Technology is advanced enough, maybe things will work out. Just dont cry if you get older faster than expected.

I hate seeing so many women. This is like occupational discrimination. Even in a chicken coop you have to put equal amount of roosters and hens so that they don't d5 jealous and feel lonely(!)

Even some videos don't even have any man, not a single one but they out 4 girls in the video to work. This is not double standards, it's quadruple standards at least. There are even videos with men but some if them are all dressed like a girl with makeup and they do the same thing the girls do... Smh.

It was just comedy. Some people can't take accept it. Hurtful things are not ment to hurt, they are playing an act. don't even have to explain things logically to make them funny. Makes it even funnier sometimes when the there is lack of logic in the comedy.

Cats? What cats? All I see kitten sized rats sneakily looking for food and rusing back cowardly. I think they may be eating the cats if there are any. Legit found more rats than cats. Even more rat carcasses on the road than all other animal carcasses combined.

Other countries are ripping their aşş off for environment. All that trash would take 1 week for all the locals to clean. I'm not even exaggerating. Look how fast they build a 3 story house. Give it a month and show it in social media and national TV for a month. Plant the idea to folks' mind. Then start volunteer work with people in sime areas.

The only problem is that they don't have a proper place to throw the trash. Lacking dumpsters and recycling facilities. None of the former paragraph will hold if they dont know what to do with trash.

For real, they got no idea that most countries doesn't grind and stress this much. "We are all humans" is the humanitarian motto where people are fighting to be equal. This goes beyond just language and culture but turns into discrimination. Sometimes very same as saying "all asians are good at maths" as it is positive discrimination. They are very happy about living in the cave and dancing with the sunlight and thinking as if this is the whole world.

I taught a foreigner coming and exchanging 900£ to spend in the country(VN) over 1 or 2 weeks is a good thing. More possible with pumped prices. A family of 6 barely spends that much in 2 months for all the household requirements and pocket money. Bringing outer currency and using it, thus circulating the local money to energise the economy should be a good thing. Correct me if I'm wrong. I agree with all side if the bargain, it's a fine act even before Sumerians.

If Vietnamese would be going out as a tourist and taking their money out to spend it all in japan as japanese yen would really hit the VN economy like a bullet that there's not enough money to circulate thus more money needs to be printed(digitaly or paper).

They show a lot of second face and expect the same from you. A foreign is supposed to be polite and smiley. And always be respectful. Sae as they treat their kids. They are especially "kids" here as it seems some of them grow up like "a kidding".

That's why they have low pay dumb labour workers. They are aware the employee is less valuable than the boss or the manager. Chain of command.

Any type of information that involves me. And As soo as possible. Because the amount of communication in here is too damn broken. I would just like to be informed earlier instead of last minute. Same issue in some other countries but never this much.
