I'm sure that we have all had a lazy teacher when we were in school. The kind of teacher that sits at their desk and they never get up for anything. You wonder what their feet look like and you also wonder how tall they are. The type of teacher that gives crossword puzzles as an assignment or give their students book work while they listen to their iPod or take a nap. They never teach their students anything. Most students like teachers like this because they don't have to do much work and everything is easy but are these teachers really helping their students by being lazy? The answer to this question is NO. I recently took the ACT and I saw a lot of science and math questions that I had no idea about. I blame my teachers for this because they did not do their job correctly. My English teacher was the only person who prepared me for the test and I thank him dearly.
There is so much that students need to learn no matter what grade they are in and they cannot go to the next grade without knowing certain things. Math and Science are very important subjects and teachers should try their very best to teach these subjects instead of allowing their students to teach themselves. Most teachers don't like to teach because they might be too tired or they feel that their students won't pay them any attention. So why do teachers become teachers if they aren't dedicated to teach? I have personally came to the conclusion that teachers only become teachers for the money and they could care less if their students achieve or not. Now don't get me wrong. There are a lot of dedicated teachers but there are alot of careless teachers as well. This needs to stop. How will the children of the future do something positive when they become adults if they are not educated well. The lack of dedicated teachers could be the result of the increasing student drop out rate. Tell me how you feel about careless teachers. {I have nothing against teachers at all. I just have a problem when there are teachers who don't care about their students and they don't teach at all.}
Are our educators really educating us?
