Show Why Teachers Teachers Yell So Much 0 1 1 0 by Alma Smith hIn In my first quarter at I had a teacher who was soft spoken There were few students in the class and everything worked out fine In my third quarter it fell my lot to have an instructor who did nothing but yell I think both actions are symptoms of a common experience For this past year Ive I've been a Computer Lab assistant Work- Work Study The first quarter was nice Iwas I Iwas Iwas was able to establish a good rapport with a few of the students When the second quarter classes came in my reaction was one of horror Who are these people These arent aren't the students I loved last quarter As the quarter passed we grew more comfortable with each other In self- self defense I resisted loving these students as much as the first quarter ones Now in my third quarter I find that I Iam Iam Iam am often brusque with students My voice raises when they dont don't comprehend everything after I tell them the first time I have a hard time remembering just who I have and haven't told what The raised voice and blurred persons keep me from becoming personally involved |
