[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] To the two PPs above, age really does not matter. I volunteer a lot in my children's elementary school, and have seen everything. The young teachers who can't handle their class, the young ones who have just the right mix of youthful vigor and authority, the old teachers with a finely honed craft, the old ones who don't care anymore... it all boils down to personality, motivation, energy. [/quote] I'm the pp who likes the more experienced teachers, and I completely agree. There are definitely young teachers that have excellent qualities, but unfortunately, my experiences have been that the younger teachers lacked maturity. I've also seen some really bad older teachers, so it doesn't always come down to age/experience. There's a lot more to it. That is the point of op's post.[/quote]
