    You need to see this !

    This kid is golden. He points out the problems with most teachers in the educational system.
    That teacher is so ignorant she doesn't even listen to him, just says ok bye get out. dumb broad.

    Kid should have gotten a round of applause.

    Maybe. That's not how you go about educating a teacher. Right or wrong, the way it was handled its inevitable for the other party to "shut down" and become non responsive.

    That said, he is a kid and probably doesn't know better. But good for him for speaking his mind.

    Come on, let's be real. I think we all had ignorant teachers such as the one in the video. I really do not see any other way of expressing yourself towards that ignorance rather than speak your mind. Furthermore, there is no palpable solution that would rend the system of such teachers.

    Most of my teachers were ignorant, but i had one or two that made my day with their classes, such a dedication that it was mind-blowing to observe them. Too bad there's not enough of them to pass around so that each student can part-take in such an experience.

    Video doesn't show the teachers side. This is a one sided video. I'm not saying the kid is wrong, I'm saying we don't have all the info here.

    There's barely anything to be positive about in the video...teacher doesn't appear to have any control of her classroom and the kid (I'll give him some credit for making points) but I doubt he truly understands the gravity of what he's saying.

    Come on now, give the kid a break. We all remember having lazy teachers, who's only reason to get to work was to get paid. My best grades were in classes where the teacher actually interacted with the students. You need to make learning fun, no matter the age of the students.

    I agree most teachers only care about the pay check. Kids learn better from teachers that have a passion for what they do. They see the teacher being excited and they become excited also it makes learning enjoyable.

    I agree that it is one sided considering we only see the part where the kids talks, but he does point out that last time she said that teaching is just a paycheck to her, or something along those lines. Again, we can't be sure it is so, but i would tend to agree that the statement is not far from the truth.

    A teacher who can't keep the kids in line is a teacher who doesn't get respect from his/her students. Respect is earned, so if her students don't give a crap about her(sleeping and such) or feel the need to point out the severe flaws, then as teacher you should really take a good hard look at yourself.
    Of course, none of this matters if you only care about getting a paycheck. Students can sense this. I never saw a passionate teacher not get respect and cooperation from students, yet i see all the time students disrespecting teachers who actually don't event respect themselves or what they are paid to and required to do, which is to educate the future generations which will inherit and oversee what is to come.

    Keep in mind that these kids will someday be doctors, teachers, police, politicians, presidents and so on, and your well being may depend on them.

    lmfao. That could be said about anyone. NO ONE HERE knows anything about that teacher. Christ. I hope you don't get a jury duty call. Instant judgment. Seemed like all the other kids were "in line". Again, I'm not sayin the kid is wrong, that video was mere entertainment, not a fact telling video. As if kids are so perfect and easy to keep "in line". Especially today.
