My own spelling's atrocious, by the way.

I think it's because I read quite fast.

Details like spelling become a blur.

I have to spell-check spell-check.

well back in the day,i had some very good teachers mostly, just a couple of complete turds.

Re: Teachers...
 

Those literacy and numeracy tests aren't too challenging i'll be honest, I passed them first time up in Lancaster (even with my spelling). Spelling wise, I'm not and English teacher as many people have already pointed out to me.

In terms of teachers being "complete turds" then yes like any job theres always people you have worked with and do work with who are just not cut out to do the job.

Yes ... but can you chew gum at the same time.

The only marketable skills I picked up in god-knows-how-many years at university were bar tending and cab driving:alright:

Re: Teachers...
 

Quite a few of my old school classmates became teachers.
We have class reunions and the ones who have had teaching careers can be identified by the way they conduct conversations.
...They speak loud enough for the 'ones at the back' to hear, and announce facts rather than ask questions which would invite discussion.

Re: Teachers...
 

Ah, but you had to work your way through because the grant didn't really cover such luxuries as food and clothing.
It must be difficult to get a barman or taxi driver in University towns now that they borrow their way through. :)

Just hang on though, they are going to spend 30 years paying off that loan, when are they going to have any money to invest in pensions so that some future government can steal it away?
:confused:
