“You went to Columbia, so why are you teaching?”
“You know, my daughter who is incredibly smart also decided to become a teacher, and she could have done anything. I am still not sure why she chose teaching.”
“Do NOT get a masters degree in education. It’s a waste of time and money. Get a masters in something else, you can always teach regardless.”
“Did you always want to be a teacher? I always pegged you for something more like a lawyer or an architect.”
Those are some of the comments that I got when I told people that I was a high school English teacher. Some, like the one about the masters degree in education, were made by colleagues, and others were made by friends. And, we are probably all familiar with the derisive, “Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.” While George Bernard Shaw was referring to revolutionaries when he made that statement, it has become commonplace to highlight the ineptitude of teachers.
