Try teaching the test that will be given in English to a bunch of kids fresh from Mexico or El Salvador. They know broken English at best yet somehow the state still expects these kids to pass. That's another obstacle teachers in our district are having to contend with. At present we are 51% Hispanic in the student population, up to 20-30% of those Hispanic students are not proficient in English.

Instructors don't always get to make those choices. Their departments and accreditation organizations demand documentation.

Yeah ... they figure if they are not fed regularly they will intentionally divert EVERY thread for their own much needed attention.

I dunno what happened but I must have missed the whole thing while I was away on vacation. I keep seeing that ya'all consider TheOracle as a troll and I still haven't seen what's so bad about her

:confused:

what did I miss!?

I did my friend's lit homework in high school in exchange for chemistry help. He's now a doctor.

*edit: Corrected drafts

I wrote my best friend's essays for graduate school. He's getting an MBA. He's an engineer.

*rewrote that miserable mess :( 10 freaking essays, too.

While I never did my ex (a pharmacist)'s homework as he already had a PharmD when we met, I did help him rewrite a few presentations on drug interactions for the University.

Some people have weaknesses. ;)

Things are worse than I thought.

I am a teacher...No, I have never cheated on any tests in my life...I am a highly qualified certified teacher and I did it on my own without any cheating.

Not all teachers cheat or put so little efforts in what committed to their lives for....

It's impossible for me to cheat on any exam....Morals preclude such an endeavor


Well I might let someone take my prostate exam for me......

Ah man, another one claimed in Half Moon Bay? Seems to happen almost every year. :( But at least they died chasing a dream and doing what they loved to do...
