[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. I didn’t really explain that the teacher admits he struggles with English and my son can’t understand a word. My son has an auditory processing issue with his adhd making it more challenging.

The teacher is also really disorganized. Students are correcting the teacher a lot in class because he makes mistakes and my son feels overwhelmed with constant revisions and corrections.

My son asks questions but the teacher says he doesn’t understand him or the response is not related to the question. I emailed the teacher about this so I’m interested in what the response will be. Super awkward but I had to document it.

It affects all the students but my son said he feels like he’s just slower so it’s getting impossible.

My impression is that the class will be on the easier side because the teacher knows the kids are so lost and doesn’t want complaints. But 2nd semester with another teacher will be really hard if the 1st semester is lost. [/quote]

Roughly 15 years ago, my kid’s new to teaching math teacher/LTS quit at the end of the fall semester because the kids were rebelling over his disorganization and very limited English. This was not an issue of accent. He had a very small vocabulary in English and did not talk through the problems. He just wrote them on the Promethean board. He also lost quizzes and mixed up which class he’d given a formative or not. After he quit, it was apparent that they could not take the Algebra HSA. The school was forced to reteach the A semester in the spring. Then, that class of students had to take the B semester the next Fall. Everyone was furious. [/quote]
