Personally, I'd rather that my kids have a teacher that knows the material and how to teach it than be able to do a good Vanna White imitation. Says someone who has [b]no understanding of teaching[/b]. What the smile at the door does is help the kids form a relationship with the teacher where there's mutual respect. When a teacher has thisnieth their students the students will work harder for that teacher. Kids aren't dumb, they won't respect you if they see they get none in return. The teacher who takes the time to show the kids they care will get better results from their students every time. [/quote] What you may not understand is that MS and HS teachers often do not have time to stand by the classroom door and greet students 4-6 times a day when classes change. This does not mean they don't respect their students. [/quote]
