Post: Older student teachers

Posted by Evelyn on 4/24/08

    Hello,

    I am writing this post to older student teachers. I just
    finished spending a few hours reading posts on another
    website regarding a cooperative teacher's experience with
    an older student teacher.

    My conclusion is as follows:

    1) the teacher is not well educated as evidenced by her
    poor grammar and style.

    2) the teacher lacks managerial and leadership skills (not
    unexpected for a teacher) and fails to communicate her own
    expectations for the student teacher but expects the
    student teacher to comform.

    3) the teacher is apparently afraid of the university.
    This shows immaturity on the part of the teacher.

    Also, after reading some of the posts by the CT, There is
    reason to question the the mental and academic fitness of
    this teacher. (omitting the grammar and style errors)

    a. Happyhiker admits to having no friends (depression)
    b. Happyhiker is morbidly obese. (depression)
    c. Happyhiker complains about her hair (depression)
    d. Happyhiker admits to checking parents for the presence
    of "hickies." (Extremely odd)
