Student Successful After High School

Back in the 1950s, teaching was considered a noble profession. The men and women that chose the field of education as a career were well respected by parents, students, and the community as a whole. I sat down with a retired teacher, a current teacher and a student working on their education degree, all three from the same family. Mr. Charles Faren is a retired high school teacher, head football coach and assistant principal, Ms. Cheryl Faren is currently a middle school reading teacher for the Clark County School District, and Mr. Matthew Barth is a student at College of Southern Nevada working on his degree in secondary education who is currently working as a gear up tutor at one of the county’s middle schools. The role of a teacher hasn’t necessarily changed over the years, the requirements and expectations have however. Today the educators of America are required to teach what is called common core, they have to prepare students to take standardize exams, with the technology of the internet and social media comes new forms of bullying and harassment that shows up in schools, low wages and now a lack of support and respect that today’s teachers now have to work through.

Not everyone takes in consideration a teacher’s role in society, most people only see them as that teacher that doesn’t know my child, and yet give him a bad grade, but it is not true at all. Maybe centuries ago, teacher’s job was to make their students learn Math, English, and Science, but as mentioned, that was centuries ago. Today’s teachers do so much more than just teach a subject, they teach life, they listen to the student’s personal problems and help them find a solution, they want to make sure that the students fulfill their life, doing what they love, but most importantly, today’s teachers become our inspiration.

In “To Teach the journey of a teacher” by William Ayers different teaching styles are introduced. The book teaches us that nobody is a perfect teacher. A couple myths from the book include time management is essential to teaching and you learn everything you need to know about teaching in college. Everyone will have off days when they are teaching and it is not going to go perfectly. Also, you cannot really understand teaching until you are actually in a classroom experiencing it for yourself. School may teach you basic skills and situations that you may encounter, but it is not real until you actually experience a crisis for yourself. Some other myths in the book are all teachers treat their students the same and all students will perform above average. Children come from all different backgrounds and start school in different places. There is no way that teachers can treat every single student the same and ensure that they will all be above average. Overall the book was full of myths that show what other people think of teachers.

In today’s society it is nearly impossible to survive without an education. It is important that we have the right kind of teachers to accomplish certain goals. A good teacher is one who listens to their students and tries to answer any questions they might have about anything. I think that a good teacher should also be able to listen to others opinions and not argue with them but try to understand their point of view on the subject.

The pathways to postsecondary success aims to advance policies and practices that help young people enter, succeed in, and complete their postsecondary education, with a particular focus on postsecondary mathematics — an essential area for college success, and one where far too many students are underprepared when they enter college. Math is also crucial for STEM careers, which offer opportunities for social mobility and good jobs with family-sustaining wages to many young people. We prioritize strategies that support low-income students, students of colour, and first-generation university students, with the goal of making the promise of “education for all” a meaningful reality. Higher education is under great pressure to deliver on this promise, making this a moment of significant opportunity for collaboration and change.

As a student, people deal with teachers for at least twelve to thirteen years of their life and not all of them are bad, but then again they are not all good either. Most teachers fall into three categories; the I Am Just Here For the Paycheck, the Shut Up I Hate Children, and the Holy Grail. Now it is understood that teachers have a hard job dealing with snot nose brats and even snottier parents, but sometimes a teacher has to over look all that and do the job to the best of the teachers ability, and some do a great job of that, but others scrap the bottom of their barrels everyday.

As the United States strive to become a global leader in education, developing school teachers and leaders must be the first step to achieve this goal. All the work that educational leaders has put in on every level of our educational system has not rendered the results desired. Research suggest that everyday interaction between a teacher and student has a prime determinant on student achievement. Great teachers can make all the difference in the world. Teachers can inspire a student to achieves at an elevated level or a student who falls through

As teachers, student success is also a priority. It is important to remember as a teacher that success is measured in different ways. Success can be getting a good grade and for another student it could an increase in involvement. Whatever the success teachers must be able to help each student reach their full potential.

I am striving to have many educational honors in high school and I plan on expanding that accomplishment in college. I take pride in all my work and always strive to be the best I can. Although being successful in school is a challenge, I have faced struggles along the way. I have had to learn how to balance a wide variety of things. Sports, clubs, volunteer work, family time, and a job have all been extras, to go along, with AP and dual credit classes. I have been able to make time for all these things and be successful in them. In the future, I would like to major in something I enjoy before I go to grad school. I have been thinking about majoring in accounting, social work, or kinesiology. I would love to be able to study abroad for a year

I believe that teachers need respect and trust in order to thrive. The two go together. Trust means giving teachers (appropriate) autonomy in their classrooms, but it also means giving them influence over policy—real influence, not a few token teachers on some committee—and it means giving them control over their own professional growth. We need to stop fixing teachers and create environments in which teachers themselves fix their own profession. We need to trust them to do

Have you ever thought about however you attending to achieve success within the future? At the first day of high school in my senior year. I can tell that I will not be able to graduate on time. By that moment, I am already giving up my motivation. Not until I met Reba, a best friend of mine who stay by my side and helped me with all my troubles.

Teachers are one of the most influential figures in a student’s life. It is chief

Another point that makes a good teacher would be his/her patience. Teachers should not get upset or even worse, give up on the students who are not so strong in their studies. Instead, they should have the patience to slowly coach them, give them extra lessons, and find different ways to encourage them. Let them know that the teacher

The education habits of students are rooted in them from the earliest days of their educational careers. The different influences on students, whether it be inside educational institutions, or outside is huge. The teacher of a classroom is the first and most pertinent influence in a student's educational career. Teachers provide students with the basic skills they would need to survive not only in the academic world, but also the world beyond. The relationship between teachers and their students is the key element in creating an educational atmosphere that is both pleasant and effective.

When I think about teachers that I have had in the past, several different ones come to my mind. Each of these educators stands out in my mind for a variety of diverse reasons. Whether it is their sense of humor, their tactfulness, their love of the subject matter, their fanatical and sporadic behavior, or their yearning to be childish themselves, I can still remember at least one quality of every teacher I have ever encountered. Every one of these teachers conveyed subject material to their students just as they were educated and employed to do. However, I trust that every professional in the world has an abundance of opportunity for improvement; teachers could discover and improve themselves merely by having
