My english teacher "if you would've just raised ur hand more, i would've given you 10(out of 10), but because u didn't, i give u 8. take it or leave it."

As a fellow introvert, I also felt 😭

Yep!! That was me in high school, I ain't raisin my hand!!

The Cosby Show did this already

I agree underrated.

You ever seen the racial draft by chappelle

You wrote down what I thought exactly but couldn't find the words for it. This skit was just so good.

@@chrise5238 This. Chappelle Show was the predecessor to K&P - basically the same show 15 years later with a better budget.

​@@562wiseguyFootball players barely making it?? In what world are you talking about bro? The league minimum is somewhere around Half a Million per year 😂😂😂

@@YourMothersMan The comment obviously went way over your head

As an introvert I've gotta say, those moments were the most terrifying and the most gratifying moments of school. It's like the teacher knew who was going to have the correct answer. And it wasn't any of the attention seekers.

Also, as in introvert, I gotta say those teachers have been instrumental to getting me to open up more.

@@carlbell5508do you remember having the right answer but doubting yourself only because you didnt want to get called on?

All the time. If no-one else raised their hand then I was certain I didn't have the answer.

Both my parents and my grandmother are teachers. Teachers should get this treatment. I absolutely love this.

no it’s not what they deserve i’m sorry but professional athletes work from birth to get where they r and work insanely hard, teachers deserve more money but not anywhere near what pro athletes get

​@@thekingelp3551 I mean no harm, but are you implying that teachers didn't "work from birth and get where they are and work insanely hard"? Dude, you're underestimating teachers. Their myriad fields burgeons humanity through breakthroughs. Everyone, appreciate your teachers! That's among ways we express our gratitude towards them.

​@@thekingelp3551 Generally, research that teachers are among professions that are taxing with only little salaries. With their love for us students, I hope that they get what they deserve.

@@zlzizszazizsxlxixfxex8202 no a lot of teachers did not work from birth or work insanely hard, there’s a lot of great teachers out there but a good percentage of them r horrible and don’t know what they’re doing

When is that?

To be named later hahahah

And the schools drafting teachers in order based on their test scores would really level out the quality of teachers that are in what schools. Right now, we mostly have higher quality teachers teaching at higher income areas at nicer suburban school with inner city schools getting stuck with less motivated teachers and lower budgets overall.

@@PtylerBeats I agree 💯

This is their most wholesome but not their funniest.

More like if teachers were treated like this the most talented ppl would strive to be teachers. Imagine how that would affect the world.

No. Hell no. A struggling teachers there for the kids, and that's whom you WANT teaching. Give em a 2 million tax free payout after 20 years upon retirement and a 35k a year housing voucher for life as well subject to be less based on their students test scores a performance on average over the course of their careers.

Bang-average athletes aren’t “acknowledged and appreciated” like this. Only the best make it, after rigorous training and multiple tryouts. Only a tiny fraction of current teachers could make the cut if it was a system like this.

Gaijin Hakase Thats why becoming a teacher should be more difficult if they did this and increased the wage. Athletes make a lot of money compared to teachers and if teachers were paid how much Athletes were, more people would strive to be smart and educate more. Theyd want to educate other and itd be great because theyd have to learn more and more to become a teacher if the requirements are raised.

Yes. I agree ☝️ I have teachers hell in high school but I apologize for everything I done ✅ but I teach my kids you have to respect the ones who make sacrifices that they make for you

Also it's a pretty meaningful message.

​@@moussetache1815 Yeah, yeah, teachers are underpaid. Get over it already.

@@sleepygene Yeah his teachers were underpaid.

This is where western society fails! Love of money and greed undercuts common sense

Because math is one of if not the most crucial subject to learn, it’s like drafting a QB or Pitcher or like the NBA in the 50s drafting a center

@@Ruben-wm7hx a huge chunk of the stuff that is taught in maths is utterly useless to anyone that isnt going for a maths degree. Biology is useful for every proffession related to anything that is alive. That is a huge number of fields, from brain surgeons, to fishermen, to lumber workers, to farmers and anyone involved in any sport. Biological knowledge is useful for a terrifying number of things. Mathematical knowledge is useful for 1. Sure some bits of it can be used in engineering, physics and chemistry, but not much of it. Getting an extra biology teacher is way better than a maths teacher.

@@sethbennett617 So much ignorance in saying math can only be used for one subject, literally math is extremely useful in a lot of the jobs you just stated and more like being a CEO being a Treasurer being a stock broker being a mechanic being a manager for any business anywhere and having to balance the tills, biology you said deals with any job that has to do with living things but math is really used for any job ever, if you study math in university you will really have no problem doing your own taxes you could learn the best outcomes and probabilities of any gamble like fantasy football or Vegas you can understand the best ratios and deals when shopping in a store, my math teacher who graduated with a masters degree from Corpus Christi A&M is literally living in a 2 story house with a huge backyard and porch with a Harley Davidson and Range Rover and he told us this multiple time because he wanted the students to know that even on a teachers salary everything he learned from university was able to teach him the best stock options to invest in and the best way to spend money whenever he gambles as well as what time in the year is best for retail shopping and etc etc etc, math will always be useful for eternity

@@Ruben-wm7hx i never said maths wasnt useful. I said a huge chunk of it isnt for a lot of people. What you mentioned is useful. Im not denying that. But is a nurse going to need pythagoras? Is the fisherman trawling for your cod going to need to calculate a parabola? Is the farmer that toils in the field for your flour going to need advanced trigonometry. Yes these parts of mathematics have their places. they are imperative, for advanced mathematics and engineering and parts of the sciences. But they are not useful to the most important members of our society, the jobs that hold everything up. Biology is useful in more of those jobs. Im not saying dont teach maths, im saying it should be an elective sooner. Because it is needed less than is made out to be. A doctor is more important to our society than a mathematician, that is a fact based on the number of human lives saved. The mathematician scoring in at probably less than 1. The doctor coming in at possibly hundreds. The doctor does not use pythagorean theorem to do that, he uses fundamental biology. A biology teacher is more important to society than a maths teacher.

@@sethbennett617 You know the subjects were arguing for: math and science, are both used for most of the highest paying degrees in college, so either is good I just don’t like how you downplay math like every teenager ever online who thinks “oh math is just pemdas and trying to find the area of a triangle I don’t need this”’ when in actuality math is so much more than that in university, all I’m saying is there is way more millionaires and billionaires who went to college but they didn’t spend their time looking at body diagrams, no they spent their time studying math for business and are now worth more than even the hospital’s those precious doctors of yours works at

@Joey Karate definitely not how it works. Just because we're not teaching your sorry ass in class doesn't mean we aren't working. Marking papers, drafting a sillibus, sitting in meetings. It's not just what you see in class. Also it's barely enough to live especially for having to educate insufferable idiots like you.

If they had to compete for high salaries, the people in teaching positions wouldn't be the same people, smarter and more capable people would actually come to teach.

Average pay in the US for a professional athlete is 52K dollars. For teachers it's 61K.

No. It only doesn't make sense to someone who didn't take a freshman economics class. There are only a few hundred people in the world who can play professionally in a given sport and most of those people only have careers that last a few years. Those few hundred people are compensated well because millions of people pay to get entertainment from them. Whereas there is an infinite supply of teachers, who received the least academically challenging major and who rank near the bottom in college test scores. The way you would raise teacher's wages would be to 1. Get rid of unions who demand wages be the same for all teachers 2. Have a few superstar teachers conduct classrooms online for millions of students. In that case they would start to get paid like professional athletes.

Kind of the same thing in India too, the teacher's feets were washed by the king himself.

Leave ancient greeks, go to any non-developed and so-called first world nations, Teachers are held up high in societal respect ladder. Only in US I see teachers are treated like some sort of butler+nanny of schools.

There is something similar in China now. People with means pay a lot for a good English teacher, or even some one to teach kids about Western Culture.

@@alienallys Nah. Germany is underpaying teachers, too. Even though not as bad as kindergarten/preeschool & nurses. Working for humans' wellbeing & education gets treated like shit cause it doesn't create instant revenue. And because it's mostly a "women's job".....

But also, it hasn't really changed yet: good education is still hella expensive and can only be afforded by the rich. Poor children are given up on and told early that they're not fit for higher education. By looking at their background, but not looking at their talents, or at the circumstances in their lives that make it harder for them to study than it is for their financially stable peers - e.g. going to school on an empty stomach because it's the end of the month.....
