Random lunch discussion - Teachers in the future?

Oct 07, 2007 22:11

So today at lunch, Eric and I got into a discussion about people’s futures. A lot of people were mentioned about how they couldn’t or to us at least couldn’t make a good teacher. We’ll mention 3 people right now: A low (ass for teacher), a medium (depends on the situation) and a high (a good teacher).

Low - Jackie.

I don’t think anyone really thinks that Jackie would make a good teacher. Would you want her as a teacher? I dunno. I question her teaching skills and leadership skills. She didn’t show much calm or reserve during the lip sync this year, or really years before that. Looking at her in Hall Government meetings I question her tacics. She stole an idea from me. Eww. Gross. She also never seemed to loose the weight she talks about loosing. I know, I went from a high of 182 and now I fluctuate from 162-167, but I’ve never gone back to 172. So it’s a solid 10 pounds lost, maintained from my shitty eating pattern. But Jackie, physically doesn’t look like she lost weight, which I equate with her bad eating regimen. And if she doesn’t have a good eating regimen, what about her teaching regimen. Questionable. Very Questionable. I wouldn’t have my kid in her class.

Medium - Mark

Now I can see Mark be a middle-ground teacher. From what I know of him I understand he’ll be a fair guy but I question if he can actually control a class. I know he can be a little nit-picky, see Topper-Stopper Gate. Eric called Mark “neurotic” and I can kinda see that. He’ll be fine when he matures a little.

High - Jordan (that is Girl Jordan)

Now I’m not trying to toot horns or suck up, but I can see Jordan becoming a really helpful and understanding Special Ed-type teacher. From her experiences in special camp and her love of sign language, and the interaction time, she seems like the type that would both take her job seriously and love it. And I think that her students would appreciate her. The question is if she can deal with parents, but that will happen with due time.

Anywho, if I mentioned you. Maybe you should look and think: Is this the future I want? I question myself everyday. I feel quite neurotic sometimes myself.

eric, future, school
