She is probably under contract so firing immediately may not be an option. However no law (in Texas anyway) requires the school district to offer a new contract when the time comes nor does any law require a glowing recommendation letter be issued by the district. What should happen is during her contractual interview it should be suggested that Payless Shoes is hiring.
She’s part of the problem, all right.
And, she’s no edumacator.
Prior to viewing the pic, I figured she’d be a ghettopotamus.
Spelling is hard. I find that I am constantly googling for the proper spelling of a word. Spell checkers have been a gift to writing. Vocabulary is also hard. There are so many words to choose from. I was fortunate to read National Review and Bill Buckley for many years. It expanded my vocabulary.
This teacher is a pathetic example of how whites, particularly women, have been brain washed by CRT nonsense. The scam is to lower standards so blacks don’t fail. Asian students thoroughly undermine the white supremacy meme. She’s a gullible fool.
The stupid runs deep with this one. She is a middle aged high school English teacher who is disturbed to learn that languages have rules, because rules are oppressive.
And because English developed in a backwater inhabited by melanin deprived people, its rules are white supremacist.
Given the fact that the two most technical and scientific languages out there are Russian and English, it appears at this teacher might be a slacker who’s too lazy to really understand the language that they were born into.
Winston Churchill once said that he failed grammar one year in his schooling and he had to repeat it, and in the course of repeating it he had to skip Latin altogether which may have been the reason why he was strong and grammar and was able to write as well as he did.
Flashman claimed that the best way to learn a language is in bed with a hooker that speaks that language. He said that he learned more Greek from one encounter with a Greek whore than in all his years at Rugby.

She needs to relax. English will not be around much longer; millions murder it every day.
This article is a waste. What is important is to identify the teacher and the school she teaches in along with the school’s contact information.
We do not have to defend the importance of English. We have to fight back hard.
One of the finest things about English, and the reason it is pre-eminent in Science and Aviation, is that it can be uniquely clear and un-ambiguous in the speech of someone who knows how to use it. (I believe that is part of the reason that French has long been referred to as the language of diplomacy, is that it can be quite subtle and bent to mean many things, so one can see why people have perceived the French language in that fashion)
It surrenders to a degree in the beauty and flow characteristic of Latin languages such as French and Spanish, as it can sound rather gutteral in comparison, but English on its own can also be flowing and beautiful.
On a humorous side, everyone knows that cultures often find the sound of a language of another culture worthy of humor. This isn’t a secret, and not only isn’t a secret, every single culture sees the humor up to and including the point of ridicule.
I was at a party once several decades ago, and a guy was doing a drop dead funny impression of a person from India speaking Hindi, complete with the sing-song inflection, and had us in stitches!
We talked about how widespread this trait of poking fun at other people’s languages is, and one of our group was a native German. He was laughing at the various imitations, and he said:
“Do you know what Americans sound like to Germans? They sound like this: ARK ARK ARK ARK!”
We just about fell on the floor at the sharp, loud, barking gutteral impression he made!
This is one of the evils of Leftism, that humor must be politically correct. It is destroying humor, and I am not alone in observing this.
When our party group made fun of what Germans sound like to us, the guy from Germany laughed as hard as everyone else, and turnabout was fair play for the Americans when we were made fun of.
When I hear people say “I am an ‘Educator’...” that triggers a negative response in me.
Yes. I like to watch foreign films with sub titles to listen to the languages. Indian films are particularly interesting because often a Hindi conversation is punctuated with an English phrase.
I hope I’m not violating any of the fine rules of the English language when I say, “She is a ding dong.”
Mandarin Chinese is the simplest language; no plurals, no verb conjugation, and it’s even an SVO language - yet most westerners find it a struggle.
"Once upon a time, somebody say to me"
(This is a dog talking now)
"What is your Conceptual Continuity?"
"Well, I told him right then"
(Fido said)
"It should be easy to see
The crux of the biscuit is the Apostrophe"
Well, you know the man who was talkin' to the dog
Looked at the dog an' he said: (sort of staring in disbelief)
"You can't say that!"
He said:
"It doesn't, and you can't!
I won't, and it don't!
IT hasn't, it isn't, it even ain't
And it shouldn't
It couldn't!"
He told me "No no no!"
I told him "Yes yes yes"!
I said: "I do it all the time;
Ain't this boogie a mess!"
If she wants to teach her idea of language she should find someone to pay her for it or pay someone else to do it for her. She signed a contract to teach a subject, not teach one made up by her. How far would an engineering student get sitting under a professor that taught their idea of mathematics?
Most people are surprised by this but I read a Russian language course-one book and after about 15 hours of it could read the language well enough -slowly but functional
Pronunciation on the other hand probably will never work out well after >50 years of speaking Texan
It is an interesting thing, watching subtitled movies. Some people just cannot stand subtitled movies.
I have found some, particularly “Das Boot” about German submariners in WWII, that is fascinating to watch in the native German with the subtitles under it.
Much more interesting than watching the dubbed English version.
I miss Frank.

She hates White people. Hating English is part of that hate. She also hates grammar rules.
She’s an idiot. All languages have rules. Billions of people speak English. Not all are the hated Whites.
I’ll bet she adores black dialect.
