unprofessional, but unlike the rest of the people here i think it would be fine if they were fired. one of the biggest problems with our education system is that we arent rigorous enough in judging teachers and in setting a high bar of quality when it comes to them. if a teacher cant put aside their opinions in favor of teaching as objectively as possible (barring for the purpose of jokes) then they shouldn't be surprised if other people's opinions towards their cause them to lose their job

that said, a lot of people tolerated Annoying Orange's extreme use of personal opinion in his proposals and speeches so i guess thats why most of you are okay with this teacher not losing their job. im not against expressing personal opinions, but if it isn't explicitly defined as one in a classroom setting it can arguably be considered as indoctrination of an opinion, esp with students this young.

im not very satisfied with this post so i wouldnt be surprised if someone called me out on thinking this teacher should be fired. i'll try to rephrase it better it anyone has a beef with it

Lego lad:
what i got from ur post was "we arent sharp enough in judging teachers and this is an example of it so we need to fix our mistake and fire them"

Trogtor:
i completely agree and i even agree that the teachers who impose religious views should be fired as well.

In grade 12 I took an advertising class. Instead what I got was a cuckhold that bitched about how everything is loveist. Since what he preached about in class had nothing to do with what we were actually in the course for we only had 6 assignments for the whole thing and I learned nothing about advertising. In Canada teachers can get away with just about anything and never be reprimanded.

yeah basically it. the top country for education that isnt korea iirc is denmark and, again iirc, its because they have an extremely high standard when it comes to teachers, and being a teacher there is actually a well paid and respectable job. the fact teachers like this exist here and are tolerated only bolsters the lack of respect people have for the teaching profession
