I highly doubt that teacher is completely incompetent.
I'm not going to lie. Whenever I wasn't doing as well as I could in high school I blamed my teacher…even though I knew full well that I was procrastinating/being lazy.
Even now I hear my friends talking about how some professors don't teach well, are too hard, or have too thick accents. It's crazy. You have to take control of the learning process. She is not a baby.

If he wasn't teaching more than likely the others were fine with sitting there learning nothing so why would they say something about it? |
Or maybe he was teaching and she was being disruptive in his class like I've been saying the whole time.

That's why I said IF. We don't know what he was doing we can only go off of what is said in the video.

you're talking about high schoolers taking control of their learning process as if everyone has the same wherewithal to do that....this is why they are in mandatory public school. public high school is supposed to be the transition into the more independent learning process of college. academic neglect is not preparing them for anything. it's only going to make them disinterested in learning altogether.

I don't think it's fair to compare college to high school though. I do agree as far as students blaming the teacher as an excuse but then you have students who genuinely aren't learning anything

If you can't take the heat in high school good luck at a four year!
Not only will your professors not give a f.uck, but she'll be screaming to the dean when they reprimand her for that level of disrespect she showed her educator.
All these likes and pseudo Gandhi posts are cute but definitely aren't applicable to any real life scenarios I know. But then again this is BHM sooooo. Lol.

The teachers need to be held accountable of teaching students, not controlling or baby sitting them. That the educational system is forked up

in a topic you are "doing too much".
We are all just suppose to fit into the box. Sit down, shut up and take it. Don't like something? Go through the system to get it changed. The same system that has been screwing you over for years.
Apparently being fed up is reserved for certain people. Teenagers can't have a breaking point.
People who are willing to stand up for something is what this world needs.
