RE: Will be supplied with interpreters.
Filipino teachers don’t need interpreters. They speak English well ( with a Filipino accent which is intelligible of course ).
They could hire retired people from the private sector, but that would screw up the union dues.
Typical. Supporting the usurpation of the USA’s work force.
Yes, you don't know.
They pulled this same crap in Vegas. I read that there were no US teachers who qualified, even though teachers from all across the country applied. There were no shortage of skills among that group. They flew in 2 planes of teachers from the Phillipenes, who really did not qualify. The result was less education. Then they gave them taxpayer home loans at our expense.
Don’t forget to THANK PYLER v. DOE
This country is finished as we know it. It looks like we are the country that lost the Cold War ideologically.
There is a lot of work involved as a teacher. Many many things to manage while you are trying to get some information into the kids’ heads.
The lack of discipline in today’s kids is a game changer.
Didn’t read where they were coming from but yep, the speak English quite well.
We need conservative teachers
Foreign teachers have to be better than the Democrat-voting union scum that infests our school systems. They certainly can't be any worse.
You can’t BS these subjects unlike history.
Apparently you haven't been reading about how Seattle is now approaching the teaching of math. Let's just say it's more of a history lesson about white sin and cultural appropriation than it is about math.
English is spoked all over the world but that is not the problem or at least a concern. My experience with over 27 years in IT the H1B situation has destroyed the tech sector on so many levels it’s frightening to see how far the US has fallen. This is a situation where your not training some guy to replace you... its your kids. The US values have been under siege for some time and here come folks from (insert country here) and they are going to be teaching your kids. As some have posted there are subjects that are much harder to gloss over but the exposure and dedication the American way is what I see being a major problem. The folks I have worked around have had zero interest in becoming a US citizen a some I know have been here for years and the job was a conduit for bring everyone in their family tree here. The worst thing you can do is hand over your children to this type of environment that already is broken and then stop gap with people that do not have your counties best interests at heart. This should be on the level of national security but some asshat has it as a profit marker and numbers game.
I just do not see this being anything but completely wrong but dangerous. ….. steps off the rant box..
RE: Apparently you haven’t been reading about how Seattle is now approaching the teaching of math.
You mean 2 X 2 can’t be 4 because that would be a white man’s construct?
Bunch of crap! Just another BS piece to keep qualified Americans out of the workforce and find compliant union types.
I hope those teachers speak clear and easy to understand English. Over the years, taking various courses, I have found it very hard, sometimes impossible, to understand what was being said in classroom lectures.
You are using sort of a broad brush for painting.
No, private schools won’t be any better since they will be driven by exactly the problems as the government schools. Schools suffer mostly from parent lawsuits and other pressures more so than any other source.
Not bad, unless you’re a taxpayer. Of course, pensions and cadillac health bennies are a far bigger problem for taxpayers. Funny how those never get figured in when calculating what teachers get.
Except that the starting salary of an engineer is $85K per year. Explain why technology graduates would flock to teaching jobs? Ah, now it becomes clear why the teacher shortage is for STEM.
