[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best teacher I ever had growing up was fresh out of grad school. The worst teacher (4th grade) had been teaching for 35 years. My parents had to get me a summer tutor so that I would be on the same level as the other 5th graders in the fall. [/quote] I just experienced this this year. My dd had a first year teacher who was awesome! She was innovative and made lessons really fun for the kids. However, my dd had a different teacher for math. She has probably been there for 35 years, and seriously needs to retire. As I was working with dd this summer...just to keep math skills fresh, I realized that she did not know some basic math info. I could't believe it! Basically, I am reteaching the entire curriculum, because she will not be ready for the next level of math. Give the newbie a chance, she could turn out wonderful![/quote]
