They say if it is bad at home it is usually good at work and visa versa. Well not my life. I had students officially complain that I gave homework, that I tested from the notes I gave. My favorite was that they hear I only give C’s in the next class they need to take that I teach, they never took it just heard about me in the class. (the lowest grade that particular semester was a B). I am told I have to address this with the student and make the complaint go away or be resolved. I was told if there are any more complaints about me weather or not they are true it does not matter that I will be stripped of some of my classes that I teach. It is amazing that the students of the community college complain about every thing but the students that attend the 4 year schools I teach at love me. I had a passion for teaching. I wanted to give my knowledge about the Human Services field to students so they can help clients. But that is not what it is about. It is about avoiding any complaints giving the students the grades they want, not deserve what they deserve. I pity the the future patients.
I lost my spark. I don’t want to teach That makes me very sad. I loved teaching, but they have managed to make me feel flat make me feel numb….
