In t...I disagree with teacher pay based on results. In the business world, you have complete or almost complete control of the quality of the materials you use, you have ample material, and you are reimbursed for expenses. Teachers have to teach children who are hungry, tired, angry, and emotionally torn. They spend hours and dollars to provide for the students with no compensation. If we pay teachers based on results, there will be no teachers for the inner city schools. Education of our children is a village activity and it is time we start making the whole village responsible for student learning. Unless you walk a month in a teacher's shoes you won't understand. Yes, there are good teachers and there are bad ones as in all professions. The bad ones usually get out b/c the good ones are dedicated and have tough skins to accept the blame that is not all theirs! Just an old teacher's view point!Charlene Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05769160043253313527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776107374216607779.post-55390833822669218992016-08-04T15:29:22.241-07:002016-08-04T15:29:22.241-07:00Teachers never get their due!

I am so grateful that my boys had great teachers -- some of the same ones I had -- that made an impression on them.Libby in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709701255260085505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776107374216607779.post-32733844004335799432016-08-04T11:29:08.545-07:002016-08-04T11:29:08.545-07:00 I wish we would pay teachers based on the results... I wish we would pay teachers based on the results they create. I think the good teachers would make enough money to keep them in education and not having to change careers to support their families. The bad teachers need to leave anyway. That is the way it works in the business world.<br /><br />I have seen good teachers, and I have seen bad ones. Unfortunately, they are all paid the same!
