What future for education? Week tree / Activity 3.1

A good, a bad or worst teacher....

I think in our life we have good and bad experiences with teachers. 

Influences the way of being with a group, which I think was very good teachers in elementary school. 

In elementary education, the teacher is attentive to their students and their initiation, development and completion of skills throughout the course. I have good memories of teachers responsible for teaching practices and how they cleared our doubts and gave a very large class. 

The problem with bad teachers believe that emerges in middle school and then going to college. In elementary school, one teacher is responsible for teaching all subjects, but in middle school, high school or college teacher teaches a subject and then another teacher other subject the next time and so have different teachers, personalities, ideologies characters and practices. 

My problem before college, has always been the subject of mathematics. I had a hard time being an average student in class, I think it was about the art of teaching math teachers, like a mold: they gave the class in charge homework and were always easy exercises (in the coming exam more difficult and one he stayed to face WHAT! when did we see this?) and if you did not understand the teacher continued the advance to avoid altering its programming. They were not looking for a significant learning experience in students. 

In college the teacher's work is finished to train students, strongly influenced by the ideology and professional experience that counts to master the subject and click with the group. 

Unfortunately in Mexico's public schools have a variety of teachers who go from good to terrible, there are many who have unions and go boards and committees, that are allowed to fail and they do not come to class or medically incapacitated (often unjustified) and the student never sees in that semester. I spend I had 2 teachers not remember what subjects they taught or how they were physically. That is a sad thing to have these people in front of a group or occupying a place that someone else could do a better job. 

At the end they are people who do not like teaching, maybe they are just there for the money. Good thing that my mind did not retain these images and stay with the teachings of good teachers and those who were not good, but struggled to teach and that it was hard to learn and pass their subjects. That is the challenge of education.

Thanks for read.
