Problems with some teachers.

Since there's nothing much to do... Can I just say something I remember vivdly when I and my younger sister were discussing about "TEACHERS", I came to conclude that aside politicians, teachers are the second problem we have in the society today. I recall when I was moving to S.S 2 class. Then we had to choose between going to either art or science, I was naive, I didn't have a clue about what I wanted to do, who I was or anything. The teachers weren't helping issues at all, they kept on pressurizing me to be in science class because I am intelligent and those stuffs... At a point I succummed to their wish, maybe cause I thought I needed to prove to myself and to them I was hyper but it back fired, I went down in my grades and a lot of shitty stuffs starting happening.

I was expecting maybe for them to react to my new improvement with curiosity rather than judgement but hell no!! They said I was rolling with the wrong set of friends and kept saying hurting words, I was strong enough to have pulled through and tried my best but my best weren't helping issues... Now this is a story for another day but in essence what I'm trying to say is... Everyone isn't meant to be a teacher. Teaching is one of the most important occupation we have but so sad... We don't value them. Most teachers don't know they are set out to build lives or destroy them either by their words or actions. You are a teacher and you feel maybe some special kind of treatment should only be melted out to the intelligent ones while the, not so bright ones should be ridiculed and reminded of their weakness, I tell you, you are killing those students slowly. Mind you, I am not a teacher and i don't even know what it feels like to be one but I'm a student and I know how it feels like to be left out and seen as nothing. Those students too have their own problems . Grades and Gp's aren't used as a standard of measurement for success. They might not be so bright in academics but there are other areas where they are genius. Just be that one person who believes in them and encourages them. No student is a dummy, everyone has an area in which they are 10's but disheartening enough everyone wants to be either a doctor or a lawyer. Those students who aren't bright in academics have other unique talents too, education is important... Very important but white collar job isn't meant for everyone. Being able to read and write is a good way to start but thinking that you are going to be rich just cause you know some fact in a book is a big fallacy... Talents, ideas and creativity rules the world now and funny enough... Teachers are too sentimental to help build those qualities up.

You are pointing at a very important problem here. A vast majority of teachers should not have become teachers in the first place, because they don't have the right attitude to it. A good teacher is priceless, but bad teachers have destroyed many lives and many minds.

Some teachers just take out all anger they had on their students because they were treated the same way
