[quote=Anonymous]I’m not sure I understand the purpose of the OP? Just to comment that not all teachers are “good” teachers? Are we getting into a debate about good vs bad?

Remote school was eye opening for us - or maybe it shouldn’t have been - and have us the chance to teach our kids that (1) not everyone likes you or will like you and you won’t like everyone, but you still might have to put up with that person in the workplace; and (2) some teachers should not be teaching.

This year both of our kids’ schools hired what appear to be less credentialed teachers than the normal route. I don’t know if there was a shortage of teachers but I was surprised some of these teachers made the cut on paper. One of these teachers, in particular, had been amazing - not because he is teaching my kid quantum physics in 5th grade, but because he got my kid to care about a subject at which my DC struggles and, up until this year, could stand. To me, that’s a win.

Again, I have no clue what the poster is getting at so I might be off topic. I’m just delighted my DC enjoys going to school everyday. At least one of them does :)[/quote]
