Teacher, how did you spend your summer?

The average teacher in the recollections of my childhood and adolescence is the hero of the film "The Geographer Drank The Globe" - a person who is not attached to anything, who went to school only because he was not useful to anything. There have been hundreds of teachers in my life, but only one or two of them were "from God."

We feel sorry for teachers and doctors as long as it does not concern us and our children.

And then September 1 comes, and the teacher asks the children: "How did you spend your summer, children?" - and gives 40 minutes of time for this. Composition. And at the same time, we, parents, aunts and uncles, are obliged to ask the teacher: "How did you, teacher, spent your summer?" Here are my questions …

Why are you, teacher, sitting on a meager salary if your head is full of specialized knowledge? What prevents you from becoming a researcher or, at worst, the author of a good magazine, where for one article you are paid your current weekly or even monthly salary?

1. Where did you get the idea, teacher, that it is not enough for a child to read an article on Wikipedia and not get caught up in frost and rain for your lesson? Do you have more material and interesting examples than, for example, on some educational YouTube channel?
2. If you teach English, but did not live or practice the language in the USA, Australia or England, where did you get the idea that you have the right to do so? Do you know swimming or running coaches with no experience in these sports? I've never met.
3. Where were you in the summer, teacher? Did you dig a garden or drink with colleagues at home? Do you teach nature studies and have you digging roots to show them to children? If not, why weren't you at the research institute? Or did you not have an internship at MIT or Cornell, at Moscow State University, at worst? Maybe you wrote a book? Cool! Where to read, which publisher is publishing it? Children would love to read.
4. Why are you, a labor teacher, teaching children about a lathe and a file, and not showing the assembly lines of car factories? Don't you understand that the file cuts down dreams and shows how outdated and stupid you are? Show them robots and automation, take the kids to the robotics museum. Teach to think globally, and not to scrape a piece of iron with a file. For example, I learned this in 10 minutes at home when I was fixing a vintage bicycle. There's fucking YouTube for that. Watch it teach you how to glue highway tubes! Can you do that, Trudovik? Can you show it better? All you need to do is open an app on a cheap phone and type in a question.
5. Or are you a geography teacher? Where have you been? Have you seen the Himalayas or the Caucasus? If not, why are you talking about them? How can you infect a thirst for knowledge if you yourself do not have one? You don't care about mountains and rivers, about the country and its beauty. Why pass this on to children?

1. What scientific journals and mailings are you subscribed to, teacher? What's new in genetics, psychology and mathematics? Do you understand that what you are saying was invented by Leonardo da Vinci in the 15th century (15th means)? I was here with my son at the Da Vinci Museum in Florence, and he did it all on pieces of wood - aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, strength of materials, mechanics and ballistics. He only had pieces of wood. You have electronics, computers, imaging materials, and the Internet. What have you discovered, what have you done, for which you should be respected? Children are indifferent to your status. For them, you are nobody, and you need to prove every time that you are worth something.
2. I can't call the physical education teacher a teacher. All my physical education teachers were pot-bellied alcoholics. One woman was not an alcoholic, but she was so fat that she would be suitable for a demotivator with the inscription "I WILL TEACH YOU SPORT, BABY." If a child has been taught to pull up at home, he can. Fizruks do not teach this. Fizruk only conduct tests that humiliate those whom they have not taught. Children are not taught to run properly. They are not taught to slide on water. They don't teach you to stand up for yourself. Physics-ry does not teach them anything in the classroom. So, the question is to the physical education teacher: what do you get paid for?

And a few more questions …

1. Why do children at the age of seven carry backpacks almost their own weight?
2. Why do schools look the same as in a scoop?
3. Why are there no stadiums and tennis courts?
4. Why do we congratulate you on September 1, Happy Teacher's Day, Happy Birthday, Happy New Year and other holidays, if we only need you to look after the children?

It turns out that today teachers, namely those who do not learn themselves, who are not "from God", are just an expensive replacement for GPS sensors and surveillance cameras for children, an unsuccessful parody of educational videos on YouTube, which children use on all issues …

And another question: why do you need SO MANY flowers? What are you doing with them?
