[quote=Anonymous]Also remember that the teachers who the parents love aren't necessarily those that the students love, or learn the most from. My sensitive, active son had a tough first-grade teacher two years ago - she was extremely particular and rigorous and not at all warm and fuzzy. She scared ME, and I could tell a lot of other parents found her to be a PITA. But the kids loved her - she was very clear, the rules were always enforced without exception, and she was extremely engaging in the classroom. Maybe it's coincidence but my son made huge strides that year - basically went from being a kid who could barely read to one who was reading way above grade level. My son looks back on the year fondly, I'm sure I would have heard unpleasant rumors about this teacher if I were well integrated into the mommy network at my kid's school, but they might not have told the whole story.[/quote]
