[quote=Anonymous]I'm not the pp you are trying to elicit a response from but yes, I would be unhappy with the cheerleader twit too. Proper grammar for a teacher is a must. I don't care what they look like but they should be competent as well as possess the other qualities, kindness, love of children, etc. It's not racist to expect a teacher, of whatever ethnicity, to be well spoken. As a teacher they should be held to a higher standard. If I heard a teacher say "I might could" like a very well educated southern member of my family, I would cringe just as I do when my family member says it--and, by the way, she fits the bill of the southern school teacher hypothetical. No one's grammar is perfect but there is no reason that we should not all strive to and expect hat our teachers will speak correctly. I repeat this is not a race thing---so ridiculous! [/quote]
