As many bad teachers that I had going through the public school system and as many times that I have said, "Those can't do, teach", I still give mad props to those dedicated teachers out there. I have had a handful of teachers who went above and beyond to help me understand what they were teaching or help me prepare for college. These are teachers that I will remember for the rest of my life.
With a salary like a teacher's salary, the people who go into the profession must dedicated. Out of all my friends who are majoring in education, I have never heard one say, "I'm doing it for the money." They'd probably get laughed at.
They all say that they're doing it because they want to be that person who shapes a kid's life.
It's just too bad that horrible teachers such as these overshadow some of those wonderful and dedicated teachers that we have had while growing up.
