That’s the thing, all of the teachers I know about teach elementary level shit. They are worthless.

I’m an elementary teacher. Got a perfect score on the verbal SAT and 97th percentile on the English Literature subject test. There are good teachers. Just not many of us.

You're being drowned out by the Marxists who are using the position to craft their own mindless foot soldiers for the "cause."

That's the reality.

Good job! I'm overgeneralizing because most are indeed worthless.

Teacher aide and tutor before it hit the fan here- perfect English/verbal 98% Math.

Now I am not welcome because I insist children think for themselves and teach those skills. 💁

Yes- but life is not learned from a book or scoring high on a test. That does not make you a good teacher. You Started life in academia and never left it' sheltered halls. Sad.

What life skills can you teach your students? - other than passing exams?

You can't know that.

A lot of teachers or tutors had entire lives outside the intellectual bubble prior or live normal real world lives daily like everyone else around them.

Stop making blanket hostile assumptions- that's what bigots and idpols and elites do.

Ah - Your inner authoritarian teacher is showing. Your trying to "teach" me. "Bigot,elites" Those are the words that the BLM and Antifa use.

I'm sure there are a few good teachers out there but IMO the vast majority are exactly as I described them. In your heart, you must know the public education system is rotten to the core as currently implemented.

After 6 years they are mostly burned out and hanging around for a retirement.

Them that can - Do. Them that can't - Choose teaching as a career.
