The reality is that there are good teachers and bad teachers.
If I have a deficiency in a certain area, I have no one but myself to blame, because the high school teacher that tried to teach me the subject did everything in her power to motvate me.
She poked, prodded, pushed andcajoled, all to no avail because I had no interest, and my only goal was simply to pass and continue through the system to get my diploma and get the hell out.
This was true in every class for me, but she was the only one that refused to give up, even though she wound up having me in her class in both my freshman year in junior high and my sophmore in high school, after she was transferred to the high school in the same year.
In retrospect, she is the teacher that I have the most respect for and my one regret is that I never got the chance to tell her that, and to thank her for her efforts in spite of me.
