This is why public education is dying.
This is the Pretend World (taught for a billion years, retired from pretend-world where the things taught in school and the knowledge/skill needed in Real World are massively different) criticizing Real World again.
This woman created nothing. Nothing.
They are clueless about detail, admin, etc.
AND not one of them can write a proper sentence with a subject and predicate. Their e mails are undecipherable.
They are barely literate and struggle to express themselves.
That must be some school if this teacher would give a Darden School graduate a C or D in composition. Something tells me this brainiac or her most of her students couldn’t make it through one class in the Darden School.
I’m sure that there are a multitude of people that are ecstatic that the old bat has long since retired and is not around to plague their children.
You could give any letter to 20 different “English” teachers and get 20 different reviews.
See if I have this straight.
The President of the United States responds to a letter from a constituent (Democrat, no less), who no doubt sent a snarky letter highlighting the Democrat view that the White House stood idle after another school shooting - and she criticizes his grammar!
I would frame the letter. Instead, she marks it up and tells the world.
He will never, ever, please the never Trumpers!
But, man, is he getting a lot done in the meantime!
In theory, retirement with a sizable pension check is an enjoyable period in life and brightens one’s outlook toward others.
She is critiquing grammar in a formal letter and she uses “y’all”?!?
‘Y’all’ is a perfectly good word down here!..................
And this teacher will be getting a $30K/yr pension.
Just be glad she isn’t still ‘teaching’........................
The fact that she has to tell everyone about this is what is really wrong. And its says that she has an agenda that is about far more than English. Would she tell the whole world about one of her students papers?
...and yet I’ll bet most of the kids she passed still can’t read!
My ex father-in-law used to return his wife’s letters corrected (in red! the horror!).
I’m still surprised they stuck together all those years ago. I, for one, could not stick it out with their daughter, who inherited the old man’s “My sh!t don’t stink and I’m never wrong” attitude.
What a powerful, beautiful, nurturing and honest [PBNH] woman...
