[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would one qualify a “higher degree”? Is it the number of letters after your name or the fanciness of degree? It’s not the level of the degree that qualifies someone to teach. I’ve had plenty of PhD craptastic educators and even more Ivy League card-carrying wastes of space. It’s experience as proven by a string of fantastic results across a wide range of subjects with a wide array of students that is the ultimate test of a teacher’s ability.

Depending on the subject, a teacher should be highly capable of teaching a wide range of other subjects. Let’s be blunt: an AP Physics C teacher can teach all lower math and physics courses. They should further possess the ability to teach other sciences - I say sciences - not policy courses disguised as science. So - bingo. 1 teacher for all STEM. Then you just need 1 teacher for all Literature. Find the AP lit teacher. AP History Courses are merely a blend of proper writing skills and facts that one can use a textbook and internet resources to stay a couple weeks ahead of the students.

But fine. Let’s accept that one teacher is a bad idea due to whackiness. I’ll find 5. Top talent. I can probably convince a couple of different department chairs at a couple of these different schools you hold in such high esteem to join me on this quest.

Oh and exam prep? That’s a joke and a half. These tests are in a race to the bottom as they compete for market share.[/quote]

Really, this is not the thread or even forum for you. Why are you here?[/quote]
