being a friend
Posted February 29th, 2008 by milki think today teachers want the kids to like them and be their friend. i think teachers need to be teachers not friends. this dosnt mean you cant be there to talk if they need it but you need to relize that you are there to teach. i had a 11th grade english teacher who tried to be everyons friend and as a result the class was out of control everyday. in the end if you teach them without the worrie they think your "cool" they will apreciate it later.
homework
Posted February 7th, 2008 by milkI belive that kids today have to much homework. i see it with my little brother who comes home from school with 3 hours of work each day. this is just too much in my opnion. i do think practice at home is a good thing but the amout seems to be growing faster and larger by the year. just ten years ago i could get my hw done in an hour and i was on top of my work. i just dont think more work necessarly means better results.
