But I agree you are not qualified to teach it. Kids should go to these classes by qualified staff.

You don’t think teachers are capable of teaching.. leadership? Seek homeschool then. Yikes. No one needs to be “qualified” to teach this complete bs. Anyone with a functioning brain could easily teach it and also realize how stupid it is at the same time.

Yes just like I f’ing think an English teacher should teach math.

Teachers are not leaders.

Clearly OP can’t teach it. It’s a solid program and needed if taught properly.

Really? How many teachers do you know that are actual leaders?

First of all, you’re a moron. Period.

Second of all, even people as dumb as you could teach this. Done! Doesn’t require any specialization. It actually requires negative brain cells. You have to be a covey shill. I just feel sorry for you.

Sorry but teachers are not qualified to teach everything. I know it hurts your feeling. But leadership is needed in the real world and academia is not the real world. Teachers don’t have any experience in a business, they are rarely educated enough to teach most things.

I’m on your side, I don’t think YOU should teach this.

You think..
You think the 7 habits are required in the corporate world? Sorry…
Anyone who works in the real world knows bs when they see it.
You sound like you actually need some help.

Forbes disagrees with you.

Your source is FORBES? Your lack of critical thinking ability would be hilarious if it weren’t so damn sad.

So someone drank the kool-aid at forbes and that somehow makes your point valid? Nah....try again!

One person and twenty-five million others in thirty-eight languages

What a pathetic shill you are.

LCPS is also doing something like this and it is a COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME and inequitable. Someone needs to investigate who is making these types of purchases!

Covey is insipid, pop psych, business lite garbage. Sorry you drank the Kool-Aid. Keep it far away from our kids.

Even in the business world the people
Who love the seven habits are usually the dumb ones. Personally I hate the whole philosophy of leadership and teaching people how to be leaders. Lots of really smart people are introverts and thinkers. Not leaders. It is weird how we always seem to reward the loudest most annoying person in the Erin in America.

You know there's an 8th habit they try to keep secret and limited to an exclusive group?

Not sure how LCPS works, but nobody in MCPS is ever held accountable for bad decisions.

MCPS can waste as much taxpayer money as it wants.

There's a poster who has their panties in a bunch over this. They likely have a vested interest in some competing program because they seem to fixate on it. Personally, I wish school would focus more on reading books and less on these SEL expeditions but whatever.

Most of the kids need SEL, just not this program.

Loving this because I’m a former English teacher who currently teaches math. Teachers are expected to be able to teach every subject- this tells me you definitely are not a teacher. You’re probably someone who bought into the 7 habits (I hope you get better soon)

DP.

Not at the secondary level. Most of us have a four year degree or even grad degree in our content area. I have no trouble admitting that I should not teach Math or ELA. MCPS doesn’t ask me to teach math but decided about a decade ago that everyone should teach reading and writing in order to boost scores.

Teachers teach this insipid curriculum with ease. It’s insultingly easy to teach actually. Zero coaches necessary.

I think the reality is that teachers are not therapists or leadership trainers. Almost all of these types programs will not be successful for this reason. Many if not most teachers and students resent being put in this position, especially if it is apparent that they are being used just to make admin look good.
