Er....It just so happens that I have a view about teachers. That I have taught, that my acquaintances were teachers, and that current acquaintances are also teachers (or ex-teachers, living off a fat pension)......
Few, if any, of my observations are positive, and I don't doubt that teachers will find my views offensive, which views can't apply to them, it being a truth universally acknowledged that teachers are rather wonderful, and beyond reproach, and that they've spent a lifetime convincing themselves of that....
Still, we all have personal experience of teachers, and it's my contention that you can count on one hand those who were any good, while there are innumerable teachers who are, or were, utter cr*p.....
For all of their edookation I've found teachers to be shallow and, er, uneducated. I've come to the conclusion that before entering the profession (!) they ought to see active combat in Afghanistan, or work a 12-hour twilight shift on the factory floor. Then they'll relate to their pupils, themselves battered by life's realities..... They, the teachers, won't then expect the parents to be 'partners' in their child's academic education..... looking to the parents to teach the 3 'R's, cos they, the teachers, are 'too busy' to deliver the most basic education....
Like I said, this post is not positive, and likely to get worse. It's my experience that whenever a teacher is confronted about his/her abject failure to teach even the most basic subjects at even the most basic level he or she will shift the blame elsewhere, and cite 'too much paperwork' as the reason why they're f*cking worthless.....
And, if you're so clever, Mr and Mrs Teacher, why are you all so fat? The Government spends billions on Public Health education but you waddle into school every day... like the advertising campaigns are only for the council estate trash, and don't apply to you, cos you're too clever.....
And don't get me started on the retired teachers living off a fat pension in France. Those I've met positively simper with their sense of wonderfulness. They're all fat, and the bearded males ooze sexual deviancy.....
