[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree. Teachers teach. Regardless. It is administration's expectations of how children are to be taught that makes it so stressful. A good teacher will teach any child from where they are and take them as far as they can go. If teachers were allowed to simply teach it would alleviate a lot of pressure. Susan from the high SES family is not going to come in one the same level as Juan whose family just arrived in the country. [b]However, a good teacher with the right resources can have them both on the same level playing field by year's end with the proper supports in place. [/quote][/b]

I couldn't disagree with this more. If this was true, there would be no need for ESOL teachers if you mean that Juan is not a native English speaker and Susan is. It takes many years for students who are non-English speakers to catch up to their peers. A good teacher can make sure they both make progress but they will not be on the same level at the end of a school year. [/quote]
