I can see where you're coming from, and even if noone asked you, most of us are glad you shared because you have the experience and went through the system entirely. You, in 34 plus years, have seen Common Core take over, full power granted to whiney entitled students, teachers fired for defending themselves against badly raised and hateful students, and teachers put on pedestals for supporting the corruption. I'm not a teacher, but I've seen and read enough to agree that the teaching career today is not suitable for honest and focused teachers who dont want lefty, anti white political ideologies in their classrooms.
Yeah, I'm leaving teaching just after 3 years of it. Luckily I'm getting my clear (for those of us who know what that is) done this year, and I'm still young, so if I want to come back. I suppose I can.
The majority of teachers I've met in my life time really want the best for their students and care about them as much as their own flesh, but society is tying their hands. They have become baby sitters as opposed to teachers.
Educate you self be a home schooler It don't take a village it takes a parent grow the F Up stop making excuses for the indigent teachers are state sanctioned and ordained propaganda pushers the lowest of low
@@timothymason3423 the hood mind, a terrible thing to use. You must have dropped out in the 7th grade. Your logic sounds as though your speaking with a smoked or wined mind.
@@timothymason3423 it does take a village, but the village has to admit it's failures. The children have to be held accountable for their wrongs. I believe this prison reform sht is BS. Do the crime, do the time.
Especially the part when with out parents permission you open the doors of the schools and encourage the kids to protest as well"Good work you will be remembered! And don't forget """You're"""" Protest sign. oh and little jimmy's
This resonated with me. It looks almost identical to my day. I also live over an hour away from my school and rarely eat on my 25 minute lunch break. With the workload, paperwork, amount of students not on grade level, demanding parents, and traveling time I'm utterly exhausted when I get home. Then I make dinner and grade or continue writing an IEP. It's a depressingly thankless and demanding job. People say they appreciate teachers one moment but their actions say differently in the next...
I support u wholeheartedly. But I know that is not enough. I feel and RESPECT your dedication and frustration. You need significant and palpable pay raises, support in the classroom and from the state u reside in. Then comes acknowledgement from the school administration. They should pay 4 your gas as well. Not 2 mention providing the classrooms with all of the necessary tools needed 2 keep students interested and motivated. These things should not be coming out of your pockets. And while I am on this rant, the PARENTS should be making sure their kids get enough sleep and are fed nutrient RICH foods 2 keep them healthy, not 2 mention mindfulness, breathing exercises and/or yoga 2 maintain healthy responses 2 whatever they may be up against. Believe me I know what u r up against and i salute you!
The problem is not money. For decades we've spent more on "education" per capita than most countries in the world and get less quality education in return. The problem is how the money is being spent. It seems the first thing a school district does upon receiving a budget increase is hire more administrators. Then they build new schools that they knock down in five to ten years. What's wrong with "education"... the US Dept of Education, the school boards, the NEA, and "parents".
I was a substitute and long term sub for three years and I finally landed my first professional job this year. I’m beyond thankful for it but teaching is NOT easy. I’m teaching 3 different subjects (ELA, History, and Writing) and sometimes keeping up with everything can be incredibly overwhelming. I absolutely love my job but it is very challenging as well.
I understand what she means by Class Size! I teach 9th graders...have 31-32 per class (I have 7 classes, 30 minute lunch period, and 45 minute conference period) I understand what it means to be tired. I get to school between 6:45/7:00 and leave at 5:30. EVERYDAY during the week! I update lesson plans, grade assignments, plan assignments, fill out 504 paperwork, fill out special education documentation for ARD meetings, attend ARD meetings, meet with counselor if I need to report bullying or discuss students who have attendance problems, call parents of kids that are failing, and meet with my team teacher.
pegleg09able Thank you for all your hard work. From a mother. Without teachers there would be no lawyer, drs, scientists, etc. Teachers lay motivate encourage students and can make a difference in the life of a child. Blessings 🙏❤️🌷🌺🌻🌼🌴
I’m an 8th grade science teacher in CA and one of my sections is ELD science (mixed grades). 19 years teaching. I’d like to tell Ms. Garelli that she needs to move closer to Sevilla or get a job teaching closer to home. I used to commute 55 min one way to a school I worked in as a HS A.P. Did that for three years and got out of Dodge, finding employment now only 15 min from home. Trust me, you don’t owe anything to any school. Your mental health is what’s most important. Second, try Sketchers walking shoes. Extremely comfortable. You need the best shoes you can have for the rigors of teaching because bad footwear zaps your energy. Also why are you watching kids at lunch? That must be some AZ thing. In CA, we have duty free lunches. Of course our unions are stronger. You’re a great teacher and you work well with Latino kids. As a Mexican American, I can tell you have what it takes to do our Latino kids right by them. Keep up the good work!!!
So it’s completely okay that the state isn’t following its own constitution and not properly funding education because people “don’t appreciate what is free?” Please come up with a better argument for education in Arizona not being properly funded. 🙄
@@briannastultz6924 I fail to see where I stated that it's ok for the state to abuse its laws. Do you think people would change their attitude if they actually had to pay for their kid's education? I think they would. As it is only property owners pay toward education. Does that sound right to you? Get off your high horse!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
In my opinion, in a nation founded on freedom, I believe mandatory education should be abolished. Students who show up to only disrupt others by inflicting violence and intimidation upon students and staff should lose that privilege. In my view, education is a privilege and not a right.
@@briannastultz6924 according to PISA results, schools in the US are falling behind internationally like a dinosaur in a tar pit. All the other countries scoring higher on that test spend less per pupil than we do in the States, so funding isn't the underlying problem.
It’s amazing what’s happened in the lack of parenting over just one generation. When I was in 6th grade 35 years ago it was so simple and the students learning was easy. There were a few problem students but just spit wads and silly things like that. Teachers were not stressed like they are today. People are having kids they cannot raise properly that’s the problem.
Teachers all over the US face challenges. The fundamental thing that people don't understand is that US Senators make around $175K per year plus lifetime benefits. Why does anyone believe that they would vote for all teachers to be able to make what they make? Even if they did, under a tax funded system, why would anyone believe that people would agree to an insane tax hike to fund teachers who are already demonized in many circles?
@Incognito Guido you are living on Mars if you seriously believe that teachers are paid appropriately for the amount of training and continuous education required in many circumstances to maintain that employment. 1/5 of teachers have a second job.
I have been substitute teaching in grades pre-K through 12 for two years. I have already been assaulted three times. One injury was so severe that I’m now under the weekly care of three doctors - at my expense because workers compensation closed my case - and I am in constant pain. I recently obtained the certification to become a full-time history teacher. I am afraid of future injuries but I’m going to become a full-time teacher because the kids who want to learn make it worth it.
Parents need to be parents to their kids and put them in their place. It’s not the teachers job to feed and care for them. Teachers can’t even discipline children but they need it more than education.
It’s nice to know we have these videos and it’s nice to see the comment section being so positive towards teachers and how they should get paid more. The unfortunate truth is, it will never get any traction. But thank you
Your doing a wonderful job! The best teachers care, and you certainly go the extra mile for your students! Kids always remember these rare teachers and the payoff comes a decade later when they approach you in the supermarket to say thanks! Those are the moments that make it all worth while!
You're missing out. Kids are the reason you save the Earth, and get involved in politics, and campaign for sound money and reduced government debt....kids are the FUTURE. they're also the reason you won't be alone and vulnerable when you're old. They are fun to raise because byou get to experience all your best memories AGAIN fro the first time through their eyes. Snow man, camp fire. Beach. Your favorite book series. The world is new again.
@@ludwigvonmiseswasright4380 I understand that you can't relate but should respect other people's views and feelings because those are valid too. People like us pay taxes that also benefit your children (at least in my country) so us not having kids in a way means there is more for your offspring. Your welcome.
@@Skies133 I'm not living on the public dole. You're not subsidizing my lifestyle or "helping" me raise my child. The massive welfare state here in the United States (which I'm not on) is also not funded by tax-payer dollars, but by a printing press....... My encouragement to have children is not the rejection of an equally-valid childless lifestyle (it's encouragement to leave behind a less fulfilling lifestyle and embrace a more fulfilling life as a parent). Like encouraging someone to exercise, or read more, or to give up materialism and embrace minimalism. All of these encouragements are "offensive" in that they imply one life is "better" than another. But it is out of kindness that we encourage one another to live a "better" life. I see nothing in my comment that was offensive. The comments section is a place to post thoughts and have conversations. My post did not require your admonition. Why do you think I "can't relate" to being childless? You think I always had a child? There was a time BEFORE I had a child.
Lower ed to higher ed, Arizona doesn’t care about its teachers. Governor Ice-cream Scoop had to be shamed into listening to us. Arizona Republic, can you do a story on adjunct professors at our state’s colleges and universities?
I teach in Florida. Politicians nor parents care about us. Therefore: students don't respect us. Adjunct professor's get screwed. Another way that limits pay to educators & that person must work numerous jobs when they'd most likely want to work full time w/students.
This is why I studied my ass out of Arizona and applied to colleges out of state. I’m happily enrolled in a private liberal arts college in Iowa now and I get the attention I need and have plenty of resources to help me grow and form connections. I thank my wonderful high school teacher who made meetings with colleges representatives and told us about scholarships and college fairs.
Hate to tell you this but this stuff goes on nationwide. You will find some pockets of good districts but they are far and few and most teachers can't get hired there because they are some of the rare good places to work. They also tend to only hire longtime locals and relatives. Most are s-holes. Even some of the private schools aren't worth dealing with, especially on the teacher's side because they pay nothing and give almost no benefits. I know a teacher who just retired after 34 years in a private school, but she has to keep working crap jobs because they did not provide her with any sort of a pension. Lots of jobs are like this now. No pay, no benies, no future.
"The fact is, per pupil spending in Arizona already surpassed its all-time high for actual non-inflated dollars. Total per pupil funding is now more than $10,000 per student in Arizona."~ 2020. A-Z Central. 32 students in her single class room = $ 320,000 in that (her) Class room. Somebody is STEALING money from teachers & students! Guess WHO !??? "The DeValueing of America" William Bennent, 1996. AND........................ It has NOTHING to do with FUNDING Nationwide. It has to do with 'management'
Think about it 53 minutes divided by 32 kids = 1.6 minutes/per kid I would be lucky to remember all 192 (6 classes per) day names by the end of the year
Sudhir Kakar Not everything is about money. Not everyone can do sub teaching. Have you ever done sub teaching? likely no. Like what was said in the video, it's not just passing out assignments. I do get "s'épanouir dans mon travail."
Sudhir Kakar Also for your info. I was accepted into Peace Corps but couldn't go due to medical issues beyond my control, ie kidney stones. Very few people even get accepted and even fewer are medically cleared to serve Peace Corps. So go away and stop trolling people. People like you that go around trolling and insulting others have likely done absolutely nothing in their lives. You just think you make yourself look better, it doesn't. Your just a jealous troll.
Sudhir Kakar I highly doubt you were a professor at a "prestigious college". What professor goes around trolling insults? it means you have too much time to go online and be a keyboard jockey. You doubt I had been accepted but medically declined for Peace Corps and I doubt you were ever a professor. You know nothing about Peace Corps
Tired is to put it MILDLY!! It's not what it used to be! My teachers would turn over in their graves if they could see the DOWNFALL of what's become of the so called EDUCATION SYSTEM! Growing up 4 decades ago, from 9AM to 4PM, we had an hour of direct LEARNING in EACH SUBJECT, with BEAUTIFULLY illustrated books and workbooks. You could hear a feather fall upon the floor..because our parents had taught us to RESPECT those in authority! Spanish speaking children knew the English language fluently by the end of the First Grade! We did not have "Emotionally Disturbed" children, as that today who create such disruptions that motivated peers have to WITNESS, which ruins their learning environment! NO!!! We had UNINTERRUPTED LEARNING 6 hours per day! Today's techniques are a farce...teachers giving "high fives" to their students, giving out constant PRAISES when a disobedient student FINALLY decides to hand in work! (What about the feelings of the students who ALWAYS had in completed assignments?) Today's education system is run by nit wits who have made teachers become counselors, social workers, and glorified baby sitters, while parents sorely lag in appropriate parenting skills!!! Teachers are now at their wits end trying to teach and contend with disobedient, unruly, disrespectful children of drug addicts, alcoholics, and neurotic parents who should NEVER have brought these precious innocents into their dark world in which teachers must now find a way to cope!
Karenina Beltran I was flipping through a photo album and found class pictures- I counted 40 to 45 students in each photo. One teacher, no assistant. There were no long-term disciplinary problems because it was dealt with by the principal right away and parents were called in. There was an emphasis on writing, reading, grammar, math and spelling. When I volunteer in a classroom now, I’m shocked at how the children have no skills. They don’t know even how to sound out words, much less read or compose a sentence. They will be mentally and financially crippled in life.
@@LilyGazou Ooh YES!! The dumbing down of America!!! Thank you for your feedback! Teachers have very little time to teach anymore!!! 4.5 days per week, 6 hours per day...with CONSTANT INTERRUPTIONS, as Special Education students are being pulled for reading, math, speech/language, Occupational Therapy, and the entire class for computer, library, and P. E. Teachers lament thry have NO TIME TO TEACH!! IT'S INSANE!
Why is a science teacher teaching English? If you come into this country and can’t speak English the children need to be put into a classroom to learn it. This is bonkers. These kids need a special class with a teacher that can teach them English until they grasp it enough to join the normal class population
This is a crisis in which nothing is being done. We hemorrhage money for bilingual education and it just keeps pulling us lower and lower into mediocrity. We've allowed this to happen, encouraged it in fact. Now we're reaping what we've sown as our society just plummets.
God I'm glad I'm retired. I lasted 33 years teaching middle school and I don't miss a second of it. I have good memories but I don't miss it. It's in a crisis mode now and nobody even realizes this or seems to know as it's all so hush hush. Good riddance.
In 1993 a military school had a serial killer named charles lee ray kill a boy with a grenade and had a group of kids firing live rounds of ammo.. Fail logic That school is defunct now
Teaching is hard labour. Have to know how to restrain a violent student, have things thrown at you, etc. Oh and don’t forget the blame game. What did the teacher do to trigger the child?
sweetcinnamonpnchkin in my entire time from elementary to high school, I’ve never witnessed another classmate be violent toward any of my teachers....and this was a public school system
Hi I with you we can fight for teachers for more pay and have less children in the class. Yes we need to fight as a whole to open a future for the teachers and students success 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I think a lot of working class parents tend to have an inconsistent and violent disciplinary style. They are usually busy working and have no idea what is happening at school. They are only involved when its something negative. School should be an extension of home not a place you leave your kids with strangers.
Absolutely! Biggest mistake I ever made was becoming a teacher. Turned out to be nothing at all like it was when I was a young student. After 13 years of total abuse, no support whatsoever, and my health deteriorating because of the job (I'd be dead now if I would have stayed), I finally called it quits. My health and sanity were too important to keep trying to do the impossible. It very much scares me for what our society has to look forward to.
@John Connor Oh, please. There is much, much more to teaching than just having subject knowledge. You need to have all sorts of understanding of how to impart knowledge and skills. Knowing the subject matter alone won't cut it. There's a lot involved from psychology to public speaking as well as different forms of management skills. Nowadays, in many of the schools, you also need to know a lot about security and self-defense. That was essential for the system I worked for. Another big reason that I quit. And that's only for starters. It can be a very, very tough job but can also be wonderful if in the right environment. Unfortunately, these days, those are few and far between.
@John Connor You clearly have never been a teacher and know nothing about what all it takes to be a good teacher. They are much more than babysitters with tiny bits of knowledge as you seem to assume. You might not need those extra degrees but you are expected to have many of those extra skills as well as being required to continually take such classes and workshops throughout your entire career. Teach a year and then come back. There is so much more involved than meets the eye and what the average person assumes.
KENT J- No tax base either. "Gubmint" employees and welfare recipients need "white folk" to keep the productive side of the economy going. That's going to become a problem in the future.
@John Connor The purpose of the 2nd amendment is to protect all of our other amendments. In western europe, free speech is dead and they cant do anything about it. Plus if america is so dangerous, why does everybody want to come here so bad? Seems as if the dangerous parts of america are the minority inner cities. I'm a gun owner and know plenty of others who are good people
@@22fordfx49 "Why does everybody want to come here so bad?" That is the most American response ever. First off no not everyone wants to come here. Most people that come here are usually coming from poorer nations that we probably destroyed. You will not see people from the developed work flcoking here. Second they are told things about America that aren't 100% accurate. Most of them think America is a certain way based off of movies which isn't reality. "In Western Europe, free speech is dead adn they can't do anything about it." HAHAHA yeah free speech isn't dead in Western Europe last time I checked. Also, last time I checked Europe is more free than the US. The US isn't the worst nation but you aren't the greatest.
@@katepausig8562 Lol that's the most liberal response ever. 'We' so I assume you imply white people right? As when you said 'we probably destroyed' poor nations. Typical liberal viewpoint I've heard countless times. So somehow 'we' destroyed three quarter of the world's nations who happen to be poor. Europe has restrictive free speech. There is cops in germany and England for instance who scan the internet looking for hate speech. There is jail time in Sweden just for questioning immigration policies. There was a woman in England who referred to a trans woman as a male and was arrested for 7 hours. I greatly disagree that Europeans would never come to America. In fact, in polls most Europeans agree with trump on things like immigration. Its just that they cant express there true opinions online without the fear of being prosecuted. Class adjourned
How much of funding has historically gone to the classroom? How much is being cut to the classroom? How much goes to administrators, test-making and textbook companies (billion dollar industries thanks to the deprofessionalization of teachers), and the entire education industry which jumped on board the cash cow which politicians created by sticking their noses into education in the first place. What is being cut as far as I understand, is not what goes to the classroom, but all of the bloat surrounding it. They make the classrooms suffer to milk more money from taxpayers who will do anything for the sake of the children...except stand up against the real problems that schools face: government intervention and the breakdown of the family.
When I was teaching, I noticed that the teachers who were parents spent more time having to raise other people's kids than their own. That is not healthy for any of these families.
The strain on teachers today is enormous. Why? Because a huge percentage of parents do not parent, do not raise their children to have a sense of decency and respect. Result: the classroom is a jungle. This drives the parents of the well behaved into alternative schools and home schooling, increasing the ratio of hooligans in our public schools and wearing teachers out.
add 4 or so terribly incorrigible students who disrupt the whole class and are also dangerous into the mix , and teaching begins to look like a very disappointing life decision. Are there whole counties like that around the usa?
Yes, it is underestimated. And yes, it's a lot more than passing out assignments. It's the same for permanent substitute teaching positions, in the sense that it is a lot more than that also.
Why don't you all quit the "social learning" and put their little eyes on you instead of up in each others' faces all day. As a substitute for 6 years from the "Old School" this makes me sick and it makes them sick!
Dana Grantham - students need to rely on themselves by the end of each lesson - whole group, small group, independent - you’d get rated Ineffective at my district if you wanted their eyes on you for 7 hours straight
I have also found that students sometimes learn better from each other than the adult. When you allow students to work in small groups you get more engagement and encourage critical thinking.
If we got rid of the stupid out of control OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING for k-12 teachers in this country the teacher shortages would probably go away. I'm the author of EIGHT DAYS IN AN INNER CITY SCHOOL
5:45 ‘defunding public education is the problem’- true if you’re ‘stuck’ in gov’t system. Enlightened parents are opting out- home school, parochial school, etc.
Don't underestimate the power of what a father and a male presence at home and in the classroom can bring. But this is what they wanted, so reap what you sow. This is why women are less happy on average than women in the 1950s.
Their are many things that make women unhappy like working full time and having majority of house hold chores and child rearing. So much more than just father and male presence at home and in classroom that make women unhappy.
@@katepausig8562 It is odd that women in the 1950s on average were happier than women of today. One would think that with feminism women would be ALOT happier than previous generations. Maybe the grass isnt always greener.
You got one woman that flew warthog warplanes for America and you got another woman that was wearing tutus protesting against our military. Who would you vote for 🤷
Politicians ( and Lawyers ) who are clueless on the educational process, are dictating policy to educational professionals. Imagine a newly elected Congressman - a former Plumber - giving required guidelines to a professional Proctologist! Although both the Proctologist and the former Plumber are familiar with impacted pipes, advice from the Plumber is help the Proctologist does not need. Similarly, Teachers taking directives from Lawyers and Politicians is an accident waiting to happen; we are now seeing the results of that wreck. The Federal Government requiring the states to educate illegal alien students is another example of governmental overreach. ( And, yes, every school district in this country knows who is an illegal and who is not! )
Yeah. They should have a rule that kids can only go to school if they know english. Or they should go back to the country they came from til they learn it.
Why not let white teachers teach white students....black teachers teach black students etc. At least the teachers wouldn't be harrased for racial reasons.
If teachers had the same training as police officers then I'd agree. Most teachers are either too weak physically to defend themselves or restricted from doing so as to not harm the little precious vicious children.
The ideal number of students in any classroom is 16 And each class should have two teachers. One male and one female, so that the students receive the views from the both sexes. Plus 16 students can be devided into four groups to help develop team work among the students. And only English should be taught in school if a student can't speak English they should not be there. This is a price to pay to become a member of society you do your part and we'll do ours.
I like your ideas. I've been substitute teaching for the past year. One thing I realized early on, was that class sizes are too large. I figured 15 was the ideal number. I also realized that pretty much every class for which I substituted really needed a full-time teacher's aide (at the very least). And, yes, English only in the classroom should be a rule. I would also add that there should be a zero tolerance policy as to cellphones in the classroom, regardless of the grade level.
@@jasonmeadows8510 I agree any form of electronic devices should be turned off in school . also teams of four must be encouraged because teamwork develops bonding as family does..
I would also like to see all children from grade 1 until grade 12 to be evaluated for what groups they belong to. Medicine, or defence or the trades or education.we need to know what they will be good at, at a very young age if someone will be good in medicine we should encourage them to be doctors or dentist or ambulance drivers who are first responders. If you get my message
@@jasonmeadows8510 I think it is stupid to have a zero tolerance policy with cellphones. They exist deal with it. Why not be smart and use them in the classroom as a tool or do a better job at teaching kids and keeping them engaged.
dks13827 they do away with grouping kids together based on their abilities. They’ve been using inclusive classrooms for awhile and i think it’s ridiculous.
@@strafer8764 That is a disastrously failed social experiment which should have NEVER been performed on our children. The repercussions from this will reverberate for decades. Demonrats are to blame for this.

How can thes women be so "irreplaceable" but stay-at-home mothers are just lazy and failur s at life. I think I finally understand why teachers always need a raise, even when they make more than the tax paying parents, even when private and charter schools can do to for less.... I finally understand, it's because they are our SURROGATE PARENTS and it is the parenting that is irreplaceable and undervalued at any price.. oh.. and yet the same value is not placed on the role of the actual mothers. I stead we need more government daycare, longer school days, and higher pay for teachers. Ironically it is higher pay for teachers that contributes to the high taxes that keep the real mothers at work away from their kids.
It absolutely has always been legal for a stay at home parent to homeschool their own children. However, the majority of stay home parents don’t homeschool their kids and instead choose to send their children to school to be educated. Those people educating the children get a salary from your taxes. Not sure what part is confusing you
@@liorasitelman1856 You don't see sob stories about how the grocery workers are underpaid and underappreciated, and yet we all depend upon them to eat. You don't hear how engineers are tragically underappreciated, or EMT's who literally save lives every day..... What offends me is the attitude towards teachers that no amount of appreciation is too much, no pay is too high, because these are our CHILDREN, and the non-stop emotional demand of raising children is just so great, and the risk of failure is unacceptable.... really it sounds more like the reporter is doing a story on mothers, rather than government employees (which is what teachers are). These children already have mothers. Maybe our society needs to respect the role of mothers more, and encourage young women that they duties at home are very very important, and their role as mother is irreplaceable. This lauding of teachers sounds as if we have transferred the responsibility of mothering from the actual mothers at home to the "professional mothers" found in the schools.
@@ludwigvonmiseswasright4380 EMTs are grossly underpaid and underappreciated and they too should be paid more. I definitely have respect for parents and think they’re the primary teachers for their children. I actually think schools are expected to do too much and that parents should be the ones to teach sex education and SEL skills
@@ludwigvonmiseswasright4380 No one is trying to replace mothers and I definitely don’t believe that stay home moms are failures in life, it sounds like you’re projecting. If anything, I think schools are doing too much and that parents need fo step up more
I feel a compassion for this woman but I think she is attacking the problem from a no win direction. Instead of campaigning for more funding to support increased class size, maybe it would be more effective to campaign for less kids. Question: Why are we still giving tax and welfare incentives for increased family size?
The education system is awful here in South Carolina. My son has autism so I teach him one on one at home. The school system here has 20 autistic people in one classroom. That's nuts. Thr school system needs to be revamped.
How? Property owners can only pay so much before they become homeless. We need to be realistic about the burden we can put on people who decide to "own," their own home.
Last week, my husband had a middle school student expose themself while running screaming around the room. Another took bags of soil from a potting project, mixed it with water from their water bottle and hurled it at their classmates. A third proceeded to scream and call my husband a racist for taking her cellphone away during class. No, no teacher should be referring to students as animals, but the world of education often places even the kindest and most qualified educational mentors in situations of such undue stress that they crack and say things they regret.
@@NoliMeTangere1163 : See that is just it. Your husband IS teaching animals. He is. Maybe he shouldn't call them that but they are behaving like animals. This is what happens when children are sired illegitimately and raised by their never-married mom. Moreover, I would NOT do your husband's job. There are 10 open positions in Information Technology (for every teacher that wants OUT) that would hire your husband tomorrow and give him a $20,000 pay raise and he wouldn't have to heard animals for a living. The kindest, and most qualified educational mentors bolt education because.... well, they can. And they should.
No it's our govt that's the problem, look at other country's they view public education as top priority. That's why they are years ahead of us and come her to work bc we are undereducated and can not fulfill those positions.
After teaching grades 4 to 12 over a 34 year span I retired in 2013. I truly loved my job, but honestly, I would not recommend teaching to anyone now.

Yeah, I'm leaving teaching just after 3 years of it. Luckily I'm getting my clear (for those of us who know what that is) done this year, and I'm still young, so if I want to come back. I suppose I can.
The majority of teachers I've met in my life time really want the best for their students and care about them as much as their own flesh, but society is tying their hands. They have become baby sitters as opposed to teachers.
Darren Green Yup that’s what I said too, basically they’ve became Glorified Babysitters!

@@timothymason3423 it does take a village, but the village has to admit it's failures. The children have to be held accountable for their wrongs. I believe this prison reform sht is BS. Do the crime, do the time.
You’re work does not go unnoticed. Thank you!
Especially the part when with out parents permission you open the doors of the schools and encourage the kids to protest as well"Good work you will be remembered! And don't forget """You're"""" Protest sign. oh and little jimmy's
Nursing is no different. Public service is lacking in every way.
Mainly in the over paid servant way" But then there is always McDonald's.""
This resonated with me. It looks almost identical to my day. I also live over an hour away from my school and rarely eat on my 25 minute lunch break. With the workload, paperwork, amount of students not on grade level, demanding parents, and traveling time I'm utterly exhausted when I get home. Then I make dinner and grade or continue writing an IEP. It's a depressingly thankless and demanding job. People say they appreciate teachers one moment but their actions say differently in the next...
Exactly!!!
I just moved down to middle school which is SIGNIFICANTLY busier than high school. ....

@@mrs.morris5506 middle school....ouch you're right in the thick of it. Hardest by far.
Why don't the kids speak English?
I support u wholeheartedly. But I know that is not enough. I feel and RESPECT your dedication and frustration.
You need significant and palpable pay raises, support in the classroom and from the state u reside in. Then comes acknowledgement from the school administration. They should pay 4 your gas as well. Not 2 mention providing the classrooms with all of the necessary tools needed 2 keep students interested and motivated. These things should not be coming out of your pockets.
And while I am on this rant, the PARENTS should be making sure their kids get enough sleep and are fed nutrient RICH foods 2 keep them healthy, not 2 mention mindfulness, breathing exercises and/or yoga 2 maintain healthy responses 2 whatever they may be up against. Believe me I know what u r up against and i salute you!
They are long hours but you also have around 2 months of paid vacation. Most people in the private sector don’t get to close to that.
I appreciate her. I wish teachers got the respect they deserve.
Want respect? Teach English,Math,Science. And don't cut little Jimmy's thingy off when he goes to school because you know better.
That teacher isnt like the video she treats stufents differntly
Think about it. Nobody really goes on in life without Teachers in terms of combining knowledge And Social skills.
The problem is not money. For decades we've spent more on "education" per capita than most countries in the world and get less quality education in return. The problem is how the money is being spent. It seems the first thing a school district does upon receiving a budget increase is hire more administrators. Then they build new schools that they knock down in five to ten years. What's wrong with "education"... the US Dept of Education, the school boards, the NEA, and "parents".
There will soon be a national movement where all teachers unite. I watched this and felt an instant connection.
I was a substitute and long term sub for three years and I finally landed my first professional job this year. I’m beyond thankful for it but teaching is NOT easy. I’m teaching 3 different subjects (ELA, History, and Writing) and sometimes keeping up with everything can be incredibly overwhelming. I absolutely love my job but it is very challenging as well.
I understand what she means by Class Size! I teach 9th graders...have 31-32 per class (I have 7 classes, 30 minute lunch period, and 45 minute conference period) I understand what it means to be tired. I get to school between 6:45/7:00 and leave at 5:30. EVERYDAY during the week! I update lesson plans, grade assignments, plan assignments, fill out 504 paperwork, fill out special education documentation for ARD meetings, attend ARD meetings, meet with counselor if I need to report bullying or discuss students who have attendance problems, call parents of kids that are failing, and meet with my team teacher.
pegleg09able Thank you for all your hard work. From a mother. Without teachers there would be no lawyer, drs, scientists, etc. Teachers lay motivate encourage students and can make a difference in the life of a child. Blessings 🙏❤️🌷🌺🌻🌼🌴
@@dblessed8783 Thank you! Much appreciated!

I’m an 8th grade science teacher in CA and one of my sections is ELD science (mixed grades). 19 years teaching. I’d like to tell Ms. Garelli that she needs to move closer to Sevilla or get a job teaching closer to home. I used to commute 55 min one way to a school I worked in as a HS A.P. Did that for three years and got out of Dodge, finding employment now only 15 min from home. Trust me, you don’t owe anything to any school. Your mental health is what’s most important. Second, try Sketchers walking shoes. Extremely comfortable. You need the best shoes you can have for the rigors of teaching because bad footwear zaps your energy. Also why are you watching kids at lunch? That must be some AZ thing. In CA, we have duty free lunches. Of course our unions are stronger. You’re a great teacher and you work well with Latino kids. As a Mexican American, I can tell you have what it takes to do our Latino kids right by them. Keep up the good work!!!
What an Outstanding teacher, I can see love and dedication in her👏🏼
Education needs to change and throwing more money at it isn't going to change anything. Often people don't appreciate what is free.
So it’s completely okay that the state isn’t following its own constitution and not properly funding education because people “don’t appreciate what is free?” Please come up with a better argument for education in Arizona not being properly funded. 🙄
@@briannastultz6924 I fail to see where I stated that it's ok for the state to abuse its laws. Do you think people would change their attitude if they actually had to pay for their kid's education? I think they would. As it is only property owners pay toward education. Does that sound right to you? Get off your high horse!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
In my opinion, in a nation founded on freedom, I believe mandatory education should be abolished. Students who show up to only disrupt others by inflicting violence and intimidation upon students and staff should lose that privilege. In my view, education is a privilege and not a right.
@@briannastultz6924 according to PISA results, schools in the US are falling behind internationally like a dinosaur in a tar pit. All the other countries scoring higher on that test spend less per pupil than we do in the States, so funding isn't the underlying problem.

It’s amazing what’s happened in the lack of parenting over just one generation. When I was in 6th grade 35 years ago it was so simple and the students learning was easy. There were a few problem students but just spit wads and silly things like that. Teachers were not stressed like they are today. People are having kids they cannot raise properly that’s the problem.
It's too difficult to become a teacher in Arizona. The pay/benefits do not match the effort output.
@Sudhir Kakar do you live in Arizona?
@Sudhir Kakar Yes, my argument is valid when speaking in the context of obtaining a teacher's certification in the state of Arizona.
@Sudhir Kakar prove it
Teachers all over the US face challenges. The fundamental thing that people don't understand is that US Senators make around $175K per year plus lifetime benefits. Why does anyone believe that they would vote for all teachers to be able to make what they make? Even if they did, under a tax funded system, why would anyone believe that people would agree to an insane tax hike to fund teachers who are already demonized in many circles?
@Incognito Guido you are living on Mars if you seriously believe that teachers are paid appropriately for the amount of training and continuous education required in many circumstances to maintain that employment. 1/5 of teachers have a second job.
My admiration for all the teachers out there.
Thank you 😊
I have been substitute teaching in grades pre-K through 12 for two years.
I have already been assaulted three times.
One injury was so severe that I’m now under the weekly care of three doctors - at my expense because workers compensation closed my case - and I am in constant pain.
I recently obtained the certification to become a full-time history teacher. I am afraid of future injuries but I’m going to become a full-time teacher because the kids who want to learn make it worth it.
Get the union involved and press charges. This isn’t ok.
Good luck !
Parents need to be parents to their kids and put them in their place. It’s not the teachers job to feed and care for them. Teachers can’t even discipline children but they need it more than education.
It’s nice to know we have these videos and it’s nice to see the comment section being so positive towards teachers and how they should get paid more. The unfortunate truth is, it will never get any traction. But thank you
Your doing a wonderful job! The best teachers care, and you certainly go the extra mile for your students! Kids always remember these rare teachers and the payoff comes a decade later when they approach you in the supermarket to say thanks! Those are the moments that make it all worth while!
Next to the doctor that delivers you, your teachers are some of the most vital people in your life.
Is this a private school? These groups were damn near perfect. Zero disruptions. Seems unrealistic
Mostly Hispanic students.
They were prepped for the cameras. Didn't resemble my sixth grade classes here in CA.
No it seems like a good school but its really not and that teacher treats students differently
I'm glad I never had kids. Our society has become way over complicated, over populated and very corrupt.
You're missing out.

I'm not living on the public dole. You're not subsidizing my lifestyle or "helping" me raise my child. The massive welfare state here in the United States (which I'm not on) is also not funded by tax-payer dollars, but by a printing press.......
My encouragement to have children is not the rejection of an equally-valid childless lifestyle (it's encouragement to leave behind a less fulfilling lifestyle and embrace a more fulfilling life as a parent). Like encouraging someone to exercise, or read more, or to give up materialism and embrace minimalism. All of these encouragements are "offensive" in that they imply one life is "better" than another. But it is out of kindness that we encourage one another to live a "better" life. I see nothing in my comment that was offensive. The comments section is a place to post thoughts and have conversations. My post did not require your admonition.
Why do you think I "can't relate" to being childless? You think I always had a child? There was a time BEFORE I had a child.
Lower ed to higher ed, Arizona doesn’t care about its teachers. Governor Ice-cream Scoop had to be shamed into listening to us. Arizona Republic, can you do a story on adjunct professors at our state’s colleges and universities?
I teach in Florida. Politicians nor parents care about us. Therefore: students don't respect us. Adjunct professor's get screwed. Another way that limits pay to educators & that person must work numerous jobs when they'd most likely want to work full time w/students.
This is why I studied my ass out of Arizona and applied to colleges out of state. I’m happily enrolled in a private liberal arts college in Iowa now and I get the attention I need and have plenty of resources to help me grow and form connections. I thank my wonderful high school teacher who made meetings with colleges representatives and told us about scholarships and college fairs.
Hate to tell you this but this stuff goes on nationwide. You will find some pockets of good districts but they are far and few and most teachers can't get hired there because they are some of the rare good places to work. They also tend to only hire longtime locals and relatives. Most are s-holes. Even some of the private schools aren't worth dealing with, especially on the teacher's side because they pay nothing and give almost no benefits. I know a teacher who just retired after 34 years in a private school, but she has to keep working crap jobs because they did not provide her with any sort of a pension. Lots of jobs are like this now. No pay, no benies, no future.
She lives in a red state, so education takes a backseat in terms of funding.
Have you seen California, Oregon and Washington State, I live in WA and it's literally a joke
How are those blue ghettos doing? 🤔
Blue states are ghettos

Sudhir Kakar Not everything is about money. Not everyone can do sub teaching. Have you ever done sub teaching? likely no. Like what was said in the video, it's not just passing out assignments. I do get "s'épanouir dans mon travail."
Sudhir Kakar Also for your info. I was accepted into Peace Corps but couldn't go due to medical issues beyond my control, ie kidney stones. Very few people even get accepted and even fewer are medically cleared to serve Peace Corps. So go away and stop trolling people.

Tired is to put it MILDLY!! It's not what it used to be! My teachers would turn over in their graves if they could see the DOWNFALL of what's become of the so called EDUCATION SYSTEM! Growing up 4 decades ago, from 9AM to 4PM, we had an hour of direct LEARNING in EACH SUBJECT, with BEAUTIFULLY illustrated books and workbooks. You could hear a feather fall upon the floor..because our parents had taught us to RESPECT those in authority! Spanish speaking children knew the English language fluently by the end of the First Grade! We did not have "Emotionally Disturbed" children, as that today who create such disruptions that motivated peers have to WITNESS, which ruins their learning environment! NO!!! We had UNINTERRUPTED LEARNING 6 hours per day! Today's techniques are a farce...teachers giving "high fives" to their students, giving out constant PRAISES when
a disobedient student FINALLY decides to hand in work! (What about the feelings of the students who ALWAYS had in completed assignments?) Today's education system is run by nit wits who have made teachers become counselors, social workers, and glorified baby sitters, while parents sorely lag in appropriate parenting skills!!! Teachers are now at their wits end trying to teach and contend with disobedient, unruly, disrespectful children of drug addicts, alcoholics, and neurotic parents who should NEVER have brought these precious innocents into their dark world in which teachers must now find a way to cope!
Karenina Beltran I was flipping through a photo album and found class pictures- I counted 40 to 45 students in each photo. One teacher, no assistant. There were no long-term disciplinary problems because it was dealt with by the principal right away and parents were called in.
There was an emphasis on writing, reading, grammar, math and spelling. When I volunteer in a classroom now, I’m shocked at how the children have no skills. They don’t know even how to sound out words, much less read or compose a sentence. They will be mentally and financially crippled in life.
@@LilyGazou Ooh YES!! The dumbing down of America!!! Thank you for your feedback! Teachers have very little time to teach anymore!!! 4.5 days per week, 6 hours per day...with CONSTANT INTERRUPTIONS, as Special Education students are being pulled for reading, math, speech/language, Occupational Therapy, and the entire class for computer, library, and P. E. Teachers lament thry have NO TIME TO TEACH!! IT'S INSANE!

Much respect !
Why is a science teacher teaching English? If you come into this country and can’t speak English the children need to be put into a classroom to learn it. This is bonkers. These kids need a special class with a teacher that can teach them English until they grasp it enough to join the normal class population
To save money and have fewer classrooms.
Is this AZ or Mexico? Absurd.
Its your mom
Hey'Hey" Communism and Leftist think cost money to teach?
This is a crisis in which nothing is being done. We hemorrhage money for bilingual education and it just keeps pulling us lower and lower into mediocrity. We've allowed this to happen, encouraged it in fact. Now we're reaping what we've sown as our society just plummets.
God I'm glad I'm retired. I lasted 33 years teaching middle school and I don't miss a second of it. I have good memories but I don't miss it. It's in a crisis mode now and nobody even realizes this or seems to know as it's all so hush hush. Good riddance.

a teachers job never stops, just like a doctor or a nurse.
your job is meager compared to other professions.
Teaching is hard labour. Have to know how to restrain a violent student, have things thrown at you, etc.
Oh and don’t forget the blame game. What did the teacher do to trigger the child?
sweetcinnamonpnchkin in my entire time from elementary to high school, I’ve never witnessed another classmate be violent toward any of my teachers....and this was a public school system
Hi I with you we can fight for teachers for more pay and have less children in the class. Yes we need to fight as a whole to open a future for the teachers and students success 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Teachers need way more support than they are getting. Should be at least two teachers per classroom. Oh, and a livable wage.
Good story. Keep it up!
I think a lot of working class parents tend to have an inconsistent and violent disciplinary style. They are usually busy working and have no idea what is happening at school. They are only involved when its something negative. School should be an extension of home not a place you leave your kids with strangers.

Teaching is a real job
Teaching seems to be very unpopular currently. If you go to college you could study for some better careers.
Absolutely! Biggest mistake I ever made was becoming a teacher. Turned out to be nothing at all like it was when I was a young student. After 13 years of total abuse, no support whatsoever, and my health deteriorating because of the job (I'd be dead now if I would have stayed), I finally called it quits. My health and sanity were too important to keep trying to do the impossible. It very much scares me for what our society has to look forward to.
@John Connor Oh, please. There is much, much more to teaching than just having subject knowledge. You need to have all sorts of understanding of how to impart knowledge and skills. Knowing the subject matter alone won't cut it. There's a lot involved from psychology to public speaking as well as different forms of management skills. Nowadays, in many of the schools, you also need to know a lot about security and self-defense. That was essential for the system I worked for. Another big reason that I quit. And that's only for starters. It can be a very, very tough job but can also be wonderful if in the right environment. Unfortunately, these days, those are few and far between.
@John Connor You clearly have never been a teacher and know nothing about what all it takes to be a good teacher. They are much more than babysitters with tiny bits of knowledge as you seem to assume. You might not need those extra degrees but you are expected to have many of those extra skills as well as being required to continually take such classes and workshops throughout your entire career. Teach a year and then come back. There is so much more involved than meets the eye and what the average person assumes.
KENT J- No tax base either. "Gubmint" employees and welfare recipients need "white folk" to keep the productive side of the economy going. That's going to become a problem in the future.

Second they are told things about America that aren't 100% accurate. Most of them think America is a certain way based off of movies which isn't reality. "In Western Europe, free speech is dead adn they can't do anything about it." HAHAHA yeah free speech isn't dead in Western Europe last time I checked. Also, last time I checked Europe is more free than the US. The US isn't the worst nation but you aren't the greatest.
@@katepausig8562 Lol that's the most liberal response ever. 'We' so I assume you imply white people right? As when you said 'we probably destroyed' poor nations.

Europe has restrictive free speech. There is cops in germany and England for instance who scan the internet looking for hate speech. There is jail time in Sweden just for questioning immigration policies. There was a woman in England who referred to a trans woman as a male and was arrested for 7 hours.
I greatly disagree that Europeans would never come to America. In fact, in polls most Europeans agree with trump on things like immigration. Its just that they cant express there true opinions online without the fear of being prosecuted. Class adjourned

How much of funding has historically gone to the classroom? How much is being cut to the classroom? How much goes to administrators, test-making and textbook companies (billion dollar industries thanks to the deprofessionalization of teachers), and the entire education industry which jumped on board the cash cow which politicians created by sticking their noses into education in the first place. What is being cut as far as I understand, is not what goes to the classroom, but all of the bloat surrounding it. They make the classrooms suffer to milk more money from taxpayers who will do anything for the sake of the children...except stand up against the real problems that schools face: government intervention and the breakdown of the family.
This should be “day in the life of a working mom”. Welcome to the world of careers.
When I was teaching, I noticed that the teachers who were parents spent more time having to raise other people's kids than their own. That is not healthy for any of these families.
@Incognito Guido Both parents are important and provide a lot of things. Get over yourself.
The strain on teachers today is enormous. Why? Because a huge percentage of parents do not parent, do not raise their children to have a sense of decency and respect. Result: the classroom is a jungle. This drives the parents of the well behaved into alternative schools and home schooling, increasing the ratio of hooligans in our public schools and wearing teachers out.
Complaining about taking the dog out? Fixing a meal for her children?
Barley saw a white kid.. troubling
add 4 or so terribly incorrigible students who disrupt the whole class and are also dangerous into the mix , and teaching begins to look like a very disappointing life decision. Are there whole counties like that around the usa?
Yes, it is underestimated. And yes, it's a lot more than passing out assignments. It's the same for permanent substitute teaching positions, in the sense that it is a lot more than that also.
Love and expectation of learning and zero discipline FOR CHILDREN!!! Okay...
What exactly is your definition of 'discipline' ?
Why don't you all quit the "social learning" and put their little eyes on you instead of up in each others' faces all day. As a substitute for 6 years from the "Old School" this makes me sick and it makes them sick!
Dana Grantham - students need to rely on themselves by the end of each lesson - whole group, small group, independent - you’d get rated Ineffective at my district if you wanted their eyes on you for 7 hours straight
I have also found that students sometimes learn better from each other than the adult. When you allow students to work in small groups you get more engagement and encourage critical thinking.
Old school isn't all that great either.
COVID 19 makes teaching a LOT more difficult! Hail to teachers!

Don't underestimate the power of what a father and a male presence at home and in the classroom can bring. But this is what they wanted, so reap what you sow. This is why women are less happy on average than women in the 1950s.

@@katepausig8562 It is odd that women in the 1950s on average were happier than women of today. One would think that with feminism women would be ALOT happier than previous generations. Maybe the grass isnt always greener.

Politicians ( and Lawyers ) who are clueless on the educational process, are dictating policy to educational professionals. Imagine a newly elected Congressman - a former Plumber - giving required guidelines to a professional Proctologist! Although both the Proctologist and the former Plumber are familiar with impacted pipes, advice from the Plumber is help the Proctologist does not need. Similarly, Teachers taking directives from Lawyers and Politicians is an accident waiting to happen; we are now seeing the results of that wreck.
The Federal Government requiring the states to educate illegal alien students is another example of governmental overreach. ( And, yes, every school district in this country knows who is an illegal and who is not! )
Teaching students from different countries, cultures, attitudes, languages and characters. It's more like "tribulations" in academic settings.
Yeah. They should have a rule that kids can only go to school if they know english. Or they should go back to the country they came from til they learn it.

Why not let white teachers teach white students....black teachers teach black students etc. At least the teachers wouldn't be harrased for racial reasons.
If teachers had the same training as police officers then I'd agree. Most teachers are either too weak physically to defend themselves or restricted from doing so as to not harm the little precious vicious children.
The ideal number of students in any classroom is 16 And each class should have two teachers. One male and one female, so that the students receive the views from the both sexes. Plus 16 students can be devided into four groups to help develop team work among the students. And only English should be taught in school if a student can't speak English they should not be there. This is a price to pay to become a member of society you do your part and we'll do ours.
I like your ideas. I've been substitute teaching for the past year. One thing I realized early on, was that class sizes are too large. I figured 15 was the ideal number. I also realized that pretty much every class for which I substituted really needed a full-time teacher's aide (at the very least). And, yes, English only in the classroom should be a rule. I would also add that there should be a zero tolerance policy as to cellphones in the classroom, regardless of the grade level.
@@jasonmeadows8510 I agree any form of electronic devices should be turned off in school . also teams of four must be encouraged because teamwork develops bonding as family does..
I would also like to see all children from grade 1 until grade 12 to be evaluated for what groups they belong to. Medicine, or defence or the trades or education.we need to know what they will be good at, at a very young age if someone will be good in medicine we should encourage them to be doctors or dentist or ambulance drivers who are first responders. If you get my message
@@jasonmeadows8510 I think it is stupid to have a zero tolerance policy with cellphones. They exist deal with it. Why not be smart and use them in the classroom as a tool or do a better job at teaching kids and keeping them engaged.
Yes, English should be taught but reality is the US has no offical language we don't have to speak English at all.
Need classes in low, medium, high IQ levels. Got that ?
dks13827 they do away with grouping kids together based on their abilities. They’ve been using inclusive classrooms for awhile and i think it’s ridiculous.
@@strafer8764 That is a disastrously failed social experiment which should have NEVER been performed on our children. The repercussions from this will reverberate for decades. Demonrats are to blame for this.
@@kimberlyhicks3644 the failed social experiments...was to say white women that they can get all abortions that they like and that be childless and without family...it's a good thing for a woman...very feminist...
Your elites get from latinas...all the babies that white girls aborted...
The awful truth...
This is a MJ commercial.
Let me guess, Arizona is a red state.
How can thes women be so "irreplaceable" but stay-at-home mothers are just lazy and failur s at life. I think I finally understand why teachers always need a raise, even when they make more than the tax paying parents, even when private and charter schools can do to for less.... I finally understand, it's because they are our SURROGATE PARENTS and it is the parenting that is irreplaceable and undervalued at any price.. oh.. and yet the same value is not placed on the role of the actual mothers. I stead we need more government daycare, longer school days, and higher pay for teachers. Ironically it is higher pay for teachers that contributes to the high taxes that keep the real mothers at work away from their kids.
It absolutely has always been legal for a stay at home parent to homeschool their own children. However, the majority of stay home parents don’t homeschool their kids and instead choose to send their children to school to be educated. Those people educating the children get a salary from your taxes. Not sure what part is confusing you
@@liorasitelman1856 You don't see sob stories about how the grocery workers are underpaid and underappreciated, and yet we all depend upon them to eat. You don't hear how engineers are tragically underappreciated, or EMT's who literally save lives every day..... What offends me is the attitude towards teachers that no amount of appreciation is too much, no pay is too high, because these are our CHILDREN, and the non-stop emotional demand of raising children is just so great, and the risk of failure is unacceptable.... really it sounds more like the reporter is doing a story on mothers, rather than government employees (which is what teachers are).
These children already have mothers. Maybe our society needs to respect the role of mothers more, and encourage young women that they duties at home are very very important, and their role as mother is irreplaceable. This lauding of teachers sounds as if we have transferred the responsibility of mothering from the actual mothers at home to the "professional mothers" found in the schools.
@@ludwigvonmiseswasright4380 EMTs are grossly underpaid and underappreciated and they too should be paid more. I definitely have respect for parents and think they’re the primary teachers for their children. I actually think schools are expected to do too much and that parents should be the ones to teach sex education and SEL skills
@@ludwigvonmiseswasright4380 No one is trying to replace mothers and I definitely don’t believe that stay home moms are failures in life, it sounds like you’re projecting. If anything, I think schools are doing too much and that parents need fo step up more
@@liorasitelman1856 so what's your point? That you agree with me? Disagree?
I feel empowered over short minors.
I feel a compassion for this woman but I think she is attacking the problem from a no win direction. Instead of campaigning for more funding to support increased class size, maybe it would be more effective to campaign for less kids. Question: Why are we still giving tax and welfare incentives for increased family size?
So does this mean that the multicultural experiment is a failure?
comes down to the Gene pool..
Teachers are great but the ones that dont go back to work!! Resign or get a different job!!!!
The education system is awful here in South Carolina. My son has autism so I teach him one on one at home. The school system here has 20 autistic people in one classroom. That's nuts. Thr school system needs to be revamped.
How? Property owners can only pay so much before they become homeless. We need to be realistic about the burden we can put on people who decide to "own," their own home.
Everyone should homeschool and if you can't afford to raise a child at home maybe you shouldn't have children.
Move to Fort Mill or Lex 1
It’s worse now since the pandemic has accelerated everything
Does she still call her students animals
Well... it is West Phoenix. That isn't Scottsdale where she is teaching.
Paul Colburn so you’re saying the kids from Scottsdale do not qualify as animals, but kids fromWest Phoenix do?
Last week, my husband had a middle school student expose themself while running screaming around the room. Another took bags of soil from a potting project, mixed it with water from their water bottle and hurled it at their classmates. A third proceeded to scream and call my husband a racist for taking her cellphone away during class. No, no teacher should be referring to students as animals, but the world of education often places even the kindest and most qualified educational mentors in situations of such undue stress that they crack and say things they regret.
@@NoliMeTangere1163 : See that is just it. Your husband IS teaching animals. He is. Maybe he shouldn't call them that but they are behaving like animals. This is what happens when children are sired illegitimately and raised by their never-married mom. Moreover, I would NOT do your husband's job. There are 10 open positions in Information Technology (for every teacher that wants OUT) that would hire your husband tomorrow and give him a $20,000 pay raise and he wouldn't have to heard animals for a living. The kindest, and most qualified educational mentors bolt education because.... well, they can. And they should.
Paul Colburn Well, this was ignorant.
I want to be a teacher :3
Woooowww
That's what happens when you work for government. Get out and into the private sector of education.
No it's our govt that's the problem, look at other country's they view public education as top priority. That's why they are years ahead of us and come her to work bc we are undereducated and can not fulfill those positions.
@@lafl1380
Which country is years ahead of us?
We're making the cybertruck.
