So you think that teaching isn't hard work, m101? My mother was a teacher [she now works for York LEA], and it is one of the most stressful jobs there is. You can't imagine what it's like, dealing with 30 kids like you for five hours a day, five days a week, then having to deal with your superiors...

That's odd, Sydney, Maths was one of my favourite subjects... Ah well, as you said, each to their own...

in my opinion history is great because the teacher is funny and he always gets sidetracked on cuurent events.
Math is extremely boring but its one of my best subjects.
PE is fun because we dont do much else than play games
My english teacher is great because she makes fun of most of the other students.
Science in ok
Art is really fun, I love doodling
Study hall i agreat place to do all your homework and havea free day
I have no foreign language :D

well art for me last time we studied andy warhall(don't know how to spell his name) and I was sitting there laughing when I read someone tried to kill him when he drew an unflattering picture of her. just shows you the power of the ego.(also everyone thought I was crazy because I was laughing at a worksheet)

Yes, I'm 16. Yes, I go to College. Where's your problem here? Well, it's Fulford 6th Form College, but it operates at the same level [and age] as Separate Colleges do.

England's Education System goes like this:

Age 4 - 11: Primary School
Age 11 - 16: Secondary School
Age 16 - 18: College or 6th Form [optional]
Age 18+: University [optional]

Okay?

Well, I don't have a problem with every thing about school, because education is essential and there are many interesting things to learn...
I don't mind science, language, my major: cinematography, and I like math because I have a great math teacher. History/geography is sometimes good, sometimes bad. I like art history and the like, but sometimes other topics we study about in this class can get quite boring... I would love to have a class on philosophy... it would be very interesting and supply good debates...
Also, the teachers aren't so bad at my school. Some of you act like you have teachers from Pink Floyd The Wall... ee, now I have Pink Floyd stuck in my head... good...

Oh, also, I really don't think that teachers always have it easy... especially when you have students who just won't listen and crap like that... they also have to get up early and ride to school every day. Teachers and students do a lot of work...

1. Too late. :rolleyes:
2. Unless your in America were you are taught "how great your country is," in spite of the fact we stole it. Is anyone actually learning from our past? We're living in United Stagnation, ppl. History of other countries is interesting, though.
