for all of tech's surface level talk about being optimistic and constructive and future oriented the tech x education space is incredibly negative & so absolutely full of ppl's personal grievances from when they were like 12

it's really depressing to me how many ppl get into education because they had shitty experiences with school and want to tear it all down vs because they had good experiences and want to give good experiences to others too

I personally had a pretty negative experience throughout my k-12 and college education. This is one reason why I’ve always felt a desire to become a teacher/professor so that I could try and create positive experiences for students who might have had a similar experience to mine.

yeah i mean often negative experiences motivate good change but it’s striking to me how many ppl can’t name a single positive thing or one good teacher they had like without even one good data point how do you know what to aim for

I had a very unstable childhood with my homelife but my teachers were always there for me. That motivated me to teach elementary education.

what's truly depressing is that the split between plain old grifters and truly well intended folks is in every market in the us. it's really gross actually.

I mean I was homeschooled and that's part of what's motivating me to make children's book to teach things I couldn't learn at home. I need to improve on this though.

I'd want to go into education because of a teacher that really changed my life, but then I realize my life is really cushy and he was treated like shit like most teachers are
