On: Teaching Is Not a Business

[gaius]

This is an argument often used by teachers to shut down debate, but what you forget is we have all been to school. We know what goes on first hand, everyone does.

So I hear teachers whine about their long hours, but I remember perfectly well that "teaching" consists of putting a video on then going outside for a smoke. For the same pay as the guy who actually does a lesson.

Your first comment wasn't about debate, so it's curious you'd imply otherwise.

You'd do well to consider that not all teachers act the way you describe; but that might require some small effort on your part to get over yourself.
