I believe in black teachers because I am one, but I have come across many black teachers who were not good. They were very mean and would degrade their students especially the black students. I just don't want any teacher because they are black,but I want nothing but the best to teach in these classrooms.

[@thewrongshoes]

You mean you are black and can pass the praxis? Listening to this I would think there is some magic that stops black folks from passing it. I’m black btw. I just don’t know why they are saying do away with testing when they could just as easily say we are going to mentor potential black teacher so they will pass the Praxis. It just doesn’t make sense to me

[@commoncore49]

@@thewrongshoes why would anyone who went through 4 years of educational study targeted towards and undergraduate degree in education & student teaching need to mentored or coached to take the Praxis? That's the question that needs to be addressed. Many teachers in the classroom today came via Teach America who grabbed anybody who was breathing with a degree to go into education and most of these teachers took the job because they wanted to support themselves while their focus was in entertainment, journalism, theater while looked for opportunities in these industries. Then there are those who got into education for the vacation time and never had any real expectation for student achievement.

[@Journeywithmscohen]

@Timefortruth You are correct. Just because you are black does not make you a great teacher. Furthermore, just because you went to school and passed the Praxis does not make you a good teacher. There are well educated, Praxis passed, degreed up, and licensed horrible teachers of all races. A great teacher could be awesome at educating a child and molding a great future citizen without holding a license to teach. Like you stated, you know many black teachers (most likely licensed) who are mean and degrading to children. Most of those type of individuals shouldn't be teaching children. I believe children deserve patience, positive discipline, and motivation as they are receiving their knowledge.

I remember when I was in foster care temporarily, and in 3rd grade I was sent to a majority white school up North here in Chicago for about 6mths. They tried to put me in LD(special needs) within 2wks of being there😒.But fortunately that didnt happen😐Then came the test😑 They told my case worker that because I was new, I didnt need to take the upcoming standardized test that was suppsedly important at the time, but If I wanted to, I could take it, and it wouldn't be held against me. Fast 4ward I took the test, scored so high that they wanted me to retake it becaause they thought I cheated(I guess they thought I should've of been behind because I never got the chance to fully attend 2nd grade due to my situation)😑Anyway, I retook the test and scored just as high; and instead of being embraced as a great student, my teacher (a white woman) treated me with disdain, and always made an issue out of the smallest things tryng to get me removed from her class. Overhearing the discussions between my case worker (a blk woman)and my guardian at the time It was said that I was a distraction to the students and that I would b a better fit in another class with more ppl like me; Unfortunately the class and those she was speaking about were a group of minorities/few whites in special needs smh😒Fast 4ward again, my grandma eventually got custody and she ended up having problems as well with this teacher😑 low and behold, it was revealed that she was racist and my aunt rallied other families 2gether and found out she was doing alot of crooked stuff against minority students, and helping other kids to cheat during those standardized test. She ended up getting in big trouble, but who knows what really happened 2 her😒 But, I said all this 2 say, U can't trust these ppl to teach ur kids; and we should make sure that the real teaching starts at home. If u dnt have a plan for ur kids, they will😟If it's possible to homeschool, please do it; because its folks out here that will degrade, miseducate, and sabatoge ur childrens futures inorder to keep the narrative going, and keep that pipeline flowin😟

I left college after four semesters, and I had a 3.9 GPA. I learned about ROI. Basically I looked at my potential degree, figured out how much it would cost me to get that degree, how long it will take me to earn that degree. And how much I can make at my peek. It would have took me 6 years, I would have been 80k in debt and at my highest peek I would have made 80k. That is a bad ROI. I found an opportunity in the trades. I applied and got into the elevator industry. My schooling was free, as I was an apprentice i was making money and building my 401k. In four years I was already a technician making 103k a year, I had full medical benefits, no debt. In four years I built 60k in my 401k (which is not as much as I could have had i only contributed 3%. ) I purchased my first home. Today i make 150k plus benefits, im selling my first house and I am getting a fat return due to the hot market, and im buying a bigger better house in the suburbs, in a town where the schools are rated 10/10 on testing. I know my children can handle it because our schools now are 7/10 and my children are performing well. I believe that had to do with the fact that my wife homeschool them from before they could speak. I believe i made a great choice. My degree would have been in biology.

For those lost in the sauce ROI = return on investment and should be taken into account in all things.... Excellent comment A Font. I preach this to my son whenever I can...

For me it was getting into the Hazardous Waste Operations field while working for a temp agency fresh out of high school while attending community college. A field that to this day has very little of us(blacks) in it but is a field that will be around until this planet is no more....

I went to college and earned a Chemistry Degree in May 2019. Going into junior year I expressed interest in wanting to go into industry(oil & natural gas). Advisor who’s been a professor for 20 plus years informed me that they have no real connections which translated to no employment prospects post graduation. Starting salary for the degree commands 40-50k/ yr. Disheartening to say the least. Entire Chemistry Department told me the same thing. Either my degree wasn’t worth anything or they knew the education wasn’t competitive enough to garner decent employment. Long story short in the middle of senior year I took a semester off and got hired at an oil company that sent me to truck driving school. Started in August 2018, got my CDL A in October, worked basically non stop from August to January 2019 and took an LOA to finish my degree May 2019. I made 34k in those first 4 months before taking that LOA, and I went back immediately following graduation. Trades can honestly sometimes be better than a degree or certificate for making money good money. Who would’ve ever though that a Class A CDL would’ve worth more than a 4 Year College Degree. I plan on getting a job in my career field of study at some point but it would have to be a hell of an opportunity because consistently making 90-100k annually after taxes to haul cement surely beats the hell out of wearing a lab coat and clearing around 40k after taxes. 2 totally different qualities of life. Education is a Scam. While I attribute my intelligence and ability to think critically to attending college, in retrospect it wasn’t worth the debt because I essentially have an useless degree that is comparable in cost to a new home purchase. Uncle Sam knows that college is a Scam and he also knows that most people who attended will never be able to pay off a home & their student loans during their working years.A Lifetime of Debt

After we finish compiling these strategies, I will be hand-carrying the items to the Rayburn Building here in DC. While they contemplate the stimulus...they will REALLY have to listen when parents nation-wide, take their children out of the schools and opt to do non-traditional styles of educating. A person can always cite their personal spiritual convictions as to why they desire their child to NOT be taught via Western systems. When was the last time you heard of Amish children and their "standardized test scores"? And yet, they learn all the skills needed to lead productive and self sustaining lives. Undisturbed.

He did make a lot of good points. I know teachers try and love their students more than anything. Takes special people to be teachers these days. If kids come to school and actually care i believe most teachers would be able to do their jobs better. Teaching starts at home and i think many parents have strayed away from that and have left it up to the school teachers to do every little thing. Teachers and parents are supposed to work together to educate our children. I believe integration is a good thing and yet can be a bad thing at the same time. Everyone is different. I like the fact that my kid will be able to build social skills with other children that may be different in color to them. Social skills are very lacking these days due to technology. I also believe schools should be teaching old subjects like home ec and basic trades. Like i said it takes special people to be teachers. Thank you

I am a teacher that has worked at only low income schools. I am tired of the schools and teachers being blamed for their children not being successful. A big issue in the school is absentee parents. A lot of parents do not see or respect us as educators they see us as baby sitters. The school should not be responsible for everything. There has to be a point where the parents take accountability. I am so sorry too much excuses when it comes to parenting and always someone to blame. In title I schools they are the most funded. We need to stop feeling sorry for our minority children and actually push them.

They will never make parents take accountability for their child's learning. I promise you, now with the panedemic and required at home learning, they will still find away to pin the blame on us. Literally in my county from March 13 to June 12, all learning was optional. Students were given 6 weeks to makeup previous assignments to increase their grade for the 3rd quarter, however majority did nothing. I would call parents all the time about their children not turning in work (missing or failing grade/make up work) or logging into online learning (instruction, practice activities, etc). Parents would say, "I will TRY to make him/her do it or log on or I don'tknow why they won't do their work or log in for instruction." They literally was in the next room from the kid but they couldn't get the kid to do ANYTHING. But somehow it is my fault (teachers) that your child didn't learn anything or didn't do anything 🤷🏾‍♀️.

First, let me please clarify something. There is NOTHING wrong with attending a school in the Black neighborhoods. We need to STOP degrading our neighborhoods and begin building and beautifying what is ours. We need to Stop speaking negative and ignorant of our Black neighborhoods. It is funny how so many people are experts on talking about the Black neighborhoods but do not live in them to help building them and beautify them. Ism calling allof you so-called Black intelligent people out. Out own people make money from a platform to speak low about us. Take time to watch YouTibe video on Affluent Blacks moving to Desoto, Texas. Why are you all not encouraging Blacks to create a blueprint to establish Black neighborhoods like that in all cities in America? Secondly, Black parents in Black neighborhoods could demand more from the school system regarding their children education. Learn from the White schools and their parents. The Black parents and their children must want it as much as the educators in the schools. Until then, the learning process will always be just a colored education designed for them. Parents are teachers first has always been my motto. Teachers/educators never were put in place to replace parents. The educators guide students and parents in the learning process. I have observed some of our Black parents using the schools as a daycare facility, juvenile facility and teach-my-child-what-I-am-not-teaching-as-a-parent facility. We cannot send our children to schoolvehaving out of control. Teaching must began at home and starts when the baby first enters the world.

@@danjonesiii4474 , thank you. I been meaning to purchase that book. This is what we aso need to know. No matter the system we are living under, if we do not empower our minds and sharpen our God-given skills, we will continue to be impoverished. I say that in general, because I see people rebelling against this system by rejecting everything. Too many of our people are using the system as an excuse to do nothing but be vagabonds and wanderers like nomads. They reject the system but continue to live in sin to have more children and there the cycle continues of murders, robbers, stealing, fornication, adultery and having children out of wedlock and living in poverty. "A vicious cycle" stated by Dr. Martibg Luther King, Jr. Our own ancestors before being enslaved in America went to school. The education (knowledge) these people hold in their books and libraries (besides their lies) belong to us. We suppose to learn from our enemy, as their ancestors learned from our ancestors, and filtered out their lies. Some (or even half) of our people are speaking ignorantly, because they lack education that will open their minds to speak with logic. How many of us are in position to own businesses, become educators of our people or factors to heal our own people? The power of economic always starts with us. We must have a vision or we eill perish. We will live a life filled with nothingness and voided. Satan has robbed our people from their destinies. We must rise and beat the system at their own game. The Mist High is not just goibg to hand anything yk us if we are not doing as He instructed. Jesus worked. Moses was educated under Pharaoh's system. Paul was educated under the Roman's system. Do you see where I am going with this? Some of our people rebelled against the system that they would not be able to read and understand the written text. 😔😔😔 Besides, there would always be rich, middle-class and poor. Yashua said it Himself- "The poor will always be among you." We see for ourselves that some of our people are choosing to be poor, because they are lazy and just want to beg.

If people would invest time into learning who they are, they will find their gift and it will make room for them. I agree college is not for everyone even though I have several degrees, but I chose a broad field for what I love to do and have several options. Some can be apprentice and have the equivalent as a degree and have no debt and better pay. It start with our children from birth to groom them to know thyself and what make them feel and love to do in life. My son doesn’t feel college is for him but I planted a seed in him to know that whatever your heart desire ye shall have it. First ask TMH to quite your mind for His will and the steps will be ordered. Truth of the matter in some cases people some people feel having degrees make them more valuable in life. When they can see clear it’s not about materialistic things but the passion for one who sent to do what TMH SENT THEM HERE FOR.

Anything else we can teach in our own homes that they do not teach in schools. It takes a village to raise a child and not everyone can home school or be home. It’s systematic raises so we got to work our butts off to live comfortable and our children to go to a school that teaches at the best level as possible! We can not beat a system that is against us the only time it will be how it’s suppose to be in when Jesus returns.

One night while we went over homework he said "mommy reading time I have to sit in the back of the class and I never get a book." This broke my heart.

I have a MFA with training in typography/calligraphy, multimedia design, and instructional design/education technology. Of course, I put those skills to work by teaching them to my daughter. I personalized her curriculumn which resulted in her able to read (phonemic awareness and phonics) at the age of two, when she finished daycare, she read to her classmates, she read with fluency and comprehension on a grade five level, she could count from 0-100, she knew addition and some subtraction, she knew situational awareness (how to read a compus) because I taught her martial arts/ mindfulness meditation. Most important, before she left daycare she discouraged two boys in her class and in kindergarten, she discouraged the class bully (boy) using her martial arts. Further, all the other families were amazed and even a local university sent researchers to test her and tried to understand how is that possible, in fact, I taught her how to learn to tie her shoes, at age four, and she could write and complete full sentences in cursive writing with punctuations, again thanks to my typography/calligraphy skills. However to the surprise of many, when asked who taught her, she responded to the parents and researchers "my daddy taught me." As a first time single African-American dad soon to be 60, I am proud to know, when I adopted her, I contributed to her intellectual future. Now for those who can't afford the Praxis get GRE tested it is the equivalent of a Praxis is accepted in some state as well as cheaper than the Praxis. I teach K-12, now I am teaching UX/UI design to 8th graders. It need hard to teach your child, she show interest in them and make it fun and never forces her but make it fun it really creates a bond. Oh by the way, the reason they stop teaching cursive writing, is so future generations can't read the "Constitution of the United States" and know their rights. After all, the "Constitution of the United States" is written in cursive. Do you remember Star Trek, when Cloud William badly mangles the "Pledge of Allegiance?" Then Captin Kirk gave his "We the People" speech, see "The Omega Glory: Kirk's Greates Speech" kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3iyXoaimbGlhKM.

I am homeschool parent, My son- who is now in college was homeschooled from 2nd grade to have graduation. The school system has been trash a long time and they fought me for yeeeeaaaars as a black single parent at the time to teach my kid at home. I was tired of him being bullied, beat up and not learning.

The two biggest unions are Democrats - look at where they pour their resources.

The coronavirus have made some of these lazy and disinterested black parents do their job! I am a black parent and noticed when my child was in school the parents put ALL the wait on the teachers and school system. The coronavirus is driving them crazy. They don’t realize we have the smartest children on the globe. Yes and I agree there are no life skills taught in school anymore. My father taught me “you learn at home and practice at school!” I’m of Jamaican descent.

I am so so grateful to be a teacher right now to see parents helping their children with their writing and and literacy and it's just beautiful

When I was in the 7th grade my Math Help teacher was reading the newspaper and she began to read out loud how our graduating class (2013) would be the last class to have to take the HS Graduation Exam. We only had to take portions of the test if we didn’t pass the End of Course Test (EOCT) for a particular subject. Statistics printed later showed that Caucasian children failing the Exam had significantly increased. Hence the reason the removed the test from the school system.

How are we listening to a man who not taking care of his kids... owes child support
