Yes I quit teaching writing. I do what I can to support capitalization and spelling but frankly that is dependent upon the number and quality of student TAs I have. I can’t do it with an average of 37 students in a class and no way to stop the 4-6 in each class that want to screw around.

PLEASE conservatives. If you quit beating up all teachers for the problems in education and support the half who want and need conservative changes – not charter schools, but changes in the public schools – you will add a ton of votes and destroy the unions you hate. But your actions now only make the kool-aid drinking teachers fight you and drive them to the Liberal union leaders. Sometimes I think both sides are stupid beyond belief!
