      I'm shocked at how many applications Lambda School gets that look like this: "I got a near-perfect score on the SATs, passed math/science classes with above 100%, but just couldn't force myself to care about some classes and ended up failing out." The number is remarkable.

      Knowledge is easy to come-by. Inspirational educators are harder to find.

      Please. You have no idea if an educator was the reason for the turn-off. Relying on a teacher to build up a sincere caring suggests the individual just blew the class off because not interested. Then, all good because "I did not care." Super irresponsible. Try that at work...

      Not sure I agree that every person needs to be interested in every topic to be a successful human

          Why is this relevant, or important? Why should I care? What can this do for me? What hinges upon this? All questions best answered by an enthusiastic and inspiring educator.

          When it is a class and that class is required to graduate I think would be reason enuf to whomp up a bit of interest for selfish reasons if nothing else.

          It ought to be, but then some are more easily distracted than others and where once it was library book or comic book, today the distractions are more numerous.

          Dear, I've been a teacher, tutor and setter-upper of special educ programs for 30+ years and coddling is coddling. Perhaps teaching about how to focus is in order. And those unwilling to do the work can find their economic path forward on their own.
