[quote=Anonymous]It's not just content competency -- most teachers have to pass grad school entrance exams and take the Praxis, etc. Being successful working with children with various learning needs and diverse students and their families also requires a certain patience and understanding. Managing a classroom successfully involves the ability to multitask and problem solve. Motivating and inspiring students calls for a special personality. We ask so much of our teachers. I don't know only allowing the best and the brightest to teach is the magic bullet. If school came easily to you, it might make it harder to understand why some kids struggle and other misbehave. I think an apprentice system is a better choice than the current system. Experienced teachers would get assistance, students a lower ratio, and apprentices work experience.[/quote]
