American Teacher

    After watching the movie, American Teacher my view on being in the education field changed a little bit, i'd still like to pursue teaching but seeing the struggles they faced made me realize that its not as easy as it looks. The biggest frustration I think for the Teachers, is the pay. They dont get enough money for what they do.

 
                                                        Eric Benner, Teacher.




    Some ways that could better the conditions for teachers are paying them more for what they actually do, the hours they actually spend in the class and out of class grading papers, etc. My only question about the movie was, Will the pay for teachers go up within a few years?

Procrastination..

Even though there is a lot of ways to Overcome Procrastination, it is very hard too. Procrastination is when you put off work until another day or usually until the day before it is due. It can mess up your work schedule very badly and make your progress in your future work horrible.

I myself procrastinate a lot, and its a habit i have been trying to get rid of but once you have the habit its very difficult to break. Its not uncommon to procrastinate but when you do, my advice it to try and break it ASAP.

If I could change education, I would...

    If I could change education, I would change the way that it is taught and i would make easier ways of learning for different types of people. The drop out rate is very high and i blame it on the way education it taught and the importance of schooling, people who drop out can still get pretty good jobs and i have expierence with that because my boyfriend dropped out his Sophomore year and he has a pretty good job now I just think we should make it harder to get jobs without a diploma.


    People that have disabilities should have it easier in school to get the exact same education that "normal" children get. Changing the classes and lessons to fit every child's needs, not individually but altogether.
