Chicago teacher fired after video shows her going off on student

Oh, wow.

Yeah, that was a valid termination. What's crazy is that she, most likely, was an excellent teacher. But these children will take you "there."

I'm a special ed teacher so I "push-in" to the general ed classes. In the math classes, I work with a Chinese teacher. Dude is mathematically brilliant, but he isn't the best English speaker. And boy, does he be going off:

You no appreciate your freedom!!! Why is it class only get quiet when teacher get mad??? You want angry teacher!!! Stuuuuuupid!!! You stuuuuuuupid."

He called security on this one student to have him removed. When they showed up, he yelled about the student, "He is trying to destroy my classroom!!!" I almost unleashed a guffaw myself. I swear to God I'm not making this shit up.

But, yeah. You never try to disparage the children - especially with language laced with inappropriate profanity. Even though it seems like that's the only way they truly understand you.

How are you an educator or even a special ed teacher and you act the way you do on here? You insulted me a couple of times unprovoked. smh
 
The truth hurts?
You stupid mother fucker... You ain't never going to be shit... Um, yeah. You shouldn't go off on students, but I understand how they take you there. As someone said, they don't listen until you get mad nowadays. Kids aren't taught respect and don't know how to respect anybody. They care more about getting a rise out of their classmates and getting a laugh

I believe more warnings should be given especially for events that have never happened in the past. If cops didn't get off from killing people, a teacher can get off from a one-time event from going off on a student. It shouldn't happen all the time, but you should get at least one warning

and the young man taping and laughing hysterically in the background?

you my friend aint exactly on the road to success either.

Step ya game up.
 
I feel for that woman, but that is also why I will not be a teacher. The youth need help but they won't be getting it from me.
No matter how hard we try, there is one teacher we will never be better than and that's these kids' real life experiences.

The smartest kid I ever had was named Jaykwon. This little brother was only a freshman but had a lexile score of 1138. That means he was reading at nearly a high-school senior's level. I tried to keep him out trouble but he ended up being an accomplice to a grocery store robbery.
 
...I can't call it. No child should be told that regardless of the situation. But at the same time, these are the consequences of Rham Emmanuel's education reform and busting of the Chicago Teachers Union.

"Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge." This is the edge.
 
real life experiences
For some of them they have the same things to worry about that an adult would(shelter,food,clothes,right and wrong decisions) and it can be hard for us to remember that when they enter a classroom and revert back to childish negative behavior which is something they can't afford to do outside of school.

Yeah, that's true. I got sixth graders who cannot even enjoy being children when they get home from school. Why? They have to take care of younger siblings all through the night like a parent.

But that's where cultural responsiveness comes into play for educators.

Kudos to teachers like you. :cheers: You all have a very tough job.
 
She shoulda been suspended at the most. Teachers used to go off like that decades before, no issues. One diff is these TMZ bitches.
 
man if that was a white teacher they wouldve been suspended with pay

i dont condone what she did but it isnt easy working in our environment

but when are these teachers going to learn to grab these phones?

you cant walk into my room with a cellphone

if you dont like it find a principal but youre still not coming in with one

no child should be called those things. I agree. But those children shouldnt be allowed to do or say whatever they like without consequence either. And thats the problem with public education. They have removed all discipline from the schools to the point where some teachers are simply abused every fucking day for 180 days a yr. And then eventually we have one of these vids where the teacher snaps verbally. listen, only the teachers who care snap like this. I guarantee you the good kids lost a great teacher.

If it was that easy I'm sure she would have done, a lot of principals know they have bad ass kids going to their schools and they can't suspend or expel them all or the school would have no students so they do nothing about it.
