But then again, is the knowledge you learn in schools really why you are there?

The test is just to see if students are comprehending what they were taught. If they didn’t then you know the child is having issues with the way they are being taught.

[@jeffforsythe9514]

What every child needs and wants is attention. If a child is in a classroom with 24 other children and is being taught 5 hours a day five days a week, the most amount possible of individual attention that each child can receive is one hour a week. But if the child is taught at home instead and given just one hour attention every day by it's parents, who know him or her better than any teacher could, he would receive 7 hours a week of individual attention.

[@tomasgomez9925]

I’m from Colombia, and I was always in private school while I was living there. And when I came to the US, I was surprised to see how advanced I was in things like math, because there were teaching me so many things in advance. By 6th, I was already taking geometry, biology, and an introduction to chemistry, and physics. Then I moved to the US. I don’t know how good are public schools in Colombia, but I believe the US could learn from other nations from k-12. Like for example: there are no such things as “electives” in schools. Everyone must take all the courses the school provides. And that means taking physics, PE, calculus, trigonometry, anatomy, and many others that in some schools here are just electives.

Yang is right about correcting the critical mistake of underpaying teachers, improving children's lives outside of the classroom as well as within, and getting rid of the awful standardized testing system that does more harm than good.

What most people don't realize is that charters schools ARE PUBLIC schools. My ex is a national charter school reform expert and I lived and breathed this subject with her for years. Charter schools, the good ones, are AMAZING! They do things that traditional public schools don't do. They can do this because they are smaller and can specialize whereas traditional public schools are so large and generic that they cater to the masses, not the individual. But they have benefits as well. The two types of schools serve different needs. We REALLY need to keep both our traditional AND charter public schools.

Hell yeah Yang, let 'em have it! Fact based policy and decision making for 2020! It's also interesting to note how bland everyone else sounds when answering the topic after Yang has taken his turn.

Yang Gang! #securethebag

[@connerpittman]

Yang knows that educators can only affect 30% of children's school success, so we need to put money into the hands of AMERICAN MOTHERS and fathers who know that the extra money could go miles into investing into their children's school supplies, clothes, and health for school.

I just don't understand it why go to school for 12 years and college for 4 years just to get a job paying 7.25 to bag groceries

[@divasbraidz]

Who does that? 4 years of college to bag groceries? How sway? Where away? Who sway? 🙄

[@shamika8055]

@@divasbraidz 40+ years doing a job you hate? The education system is bs.8 people have half the planet's wealth, I guarantee you any education that comes out of an economic system like that is not going to tell the peasants how to become as rich as those 8 people. The system is set up to keep us in wage slavery and debt until we die, the entire system is parasitic to the core you work to make another man rich, all your money that isn't siphoned off as profit for a corporation goes to a landlord that sits back while you work for them or it goes to a bank if you have a mortgage, there's student debt to keep you a slave forever, and we pay all of this under threat of homelessness. Honestly if a person could survive in nature just live off edible plants, build their own house in a remote area next to this food source, and not have to pay anybody to live on the land they walk on, then that person would be more free than us.

Right?? And made no point.

[@pragyabhardwaj5963]

She just feels entitled ... To talk ... To put down other people because she is a top tier candidate .... To keep going round and round in circles to make it appear like she is making 15 points when infact it's just one made already by someone else .... And man those unnecessary words she wastes on stupid story after story .... One story per debate is enough .... She does not need to put them in every question

I love Yang's emphasis on the value of people. That's my favorite thing about him. He wants to value people.

I prefer $1000 per month and democracy dollars. If we get both, everything will be worked out easily. Problems solved !!!

You have about as much a chance to get that money as you have to win the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes. Go earn that money. Then invest it.

[@pi6235]

Yang is right. My wife is a public school teacher. She told me about a young student who would sometimes come into her class and she would be moody and wouldn’t listen or do her work, but this girl is usually a very good student. My wife spoke with her after class and to find out her single mother was in and out of the hospital lost her job because of her health and was currently in the hospital so the girl had no food for dinner the night before or breakfast that morning. We bought her groceries and her mother was back home the next day and thanked us. The girl is doing better in class. How can Warren just want to put more money in the schools and keep them there when some of these kids have a hard life outside of the doors? It’s a smack in the face to tell a poor child you care about them and to show it you will put more money into the school yet they barely have basic necessities outside of school.

actually when you talk too long and too much, no one can remember what you said and what is your key point. Yang always says succintly, right to the point, and you remember what he said.

[@thelitlighter6297]

Not even American nor have I been keeping up with its politics, but Andrew Yang by far seems like the most intellectual, level -headed candidate by far. Everyone else seems to emotional or just seem to be saying things we’ve heard before

[@rayray5472]

Ok if you're not American and haven't been keeping up with the politics... How have you heard it before...🤔

[@jonahworley6879]

My mother is a teacher and I can say teachers don’t need to be paid more. She makes 42 grand a year. She works 10 months of the year.( almost 50k a year if she worked 12) To get two and half months off your job for summer(as well as two full weeks for Christmas, one for spring break, one for thanksgiving break, so really only works 8.5 months a year) and still make almost 50 grand is a ton. Not to mention that she gets pretty good retirement and insurance through the school. Why do people seem to think that they get underpaid? If anything I’d say that working 8 and a half months a year and making roughly 40 thousand is being overpaid

[@dsingh9198]

If ABC produced a poll based on comment feedback, Yang's support would look far greater than 8%

Charter schools are the way to go... vouchers are the way....the current school system like LAUSD where Unions control everything and students come last need to go...unions protect incompetent teachers... charter schools increase competition which increases quality of schools.

it's not really charters vs unions i worked at a charter that was public teachers union most charters are public schools but they have more freedom
