      Nah, because there are countless students that “quit because the teacher didn’t teach how I wanted them to” which usually means “I couldn’t just do fuckall and pass”.

          Yeah, it means everything. Learning is work. Teachers aren’t there to put up a shitty movie and scroll on their phone. Yet countless people complain that their teachers taught them because they didn’t like the work. This guy was a prime example of that - hige results but gave up because they had to work at it.

              The results are the knowledge of a subject. Plenty of people say “oh the teacher sucked that’s why I’m so bad at X” when it’s purely on the student not willing to work at it.

      Not quite. There are 30+ kids in each class. No technique is perfect, and you need to look at the whole situation to make that kind of determination.

      If I scare a kid by asking them to speak, for example, and they drop the class, that’s not a teaching issue unless [insert lengthy backstory here].

      But the entire meme is that point. The teacher needs to ensure the dumb shy kid so they can come out of their shell, grow and become a functional adult. The kid killing school isn’t going to need as much of a hand.
