[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people who work with kids are shockingly bad at working with kids. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.[/quote] As someone who has worked with kids my entire career in several different venues (education, recreation, childcare) I would say that there are more people working with kid who shouldn't be that you might imagine. I would not agree that "a lot of people" who work with kids are bad, that makes it sound like it might be a majority, which it is not. For instance, years at an elementary school spending time in many classrooms showed me that about 10-20% of teachers are really excellent, around 70% are just fine, and about 10% are really bad and shouldn't be working with kids at all. What I have never understood is why it is so hard to get those people out. I think it's mostly the phenomenon that principals used to be teachers themselves and sometimes not very good ones so they have a lot of sympathy for teachers when perhaps they shouldn't. None of this has to do with Kumon about which I know nothing.[/quote]
