He says the problem with teachers is,
What's a kid going to learn
from someone who decided his best option in life
was to become a teacher
hahahaha ehhh
He reminds the other dinner guest
that it's true what they say about teachers
that those who can't do and
those who can't teach
hahahahaha ehh ehhh
I decided to bite my tounge instead of his
and resist the urge to remind the other dinner guests
that is also true what they say about lawyers
because we're eating after all and this is polite conversation
I mean your a teacher Taylor
be honest what do you make?
and I wish he hadn't done that, ask me to be honest
because you see I have this policy about honesty and ass kicking
which is, if you ask for it then I have to let you have it
you wanna know what I make?
I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could
I can make a C+ feel like a congressional medal of honor
and I can make an A- feel like a slap in the face
how dare you waste my time with anything less than your very best
you wanna know what I make?
I can make kids sit through 40 minutes of study hall in absolute silence
no you cannot work in groups
no you cannot ask questions so put your hands down
why won't I let you go to the bathroom
because you're bored and you don't really have to go, do you?
you wanna know what I make?
I make parents tremble in fear when I call home in around dinner time
Hi, this is Mr. Mali, I hope I haven't called you at a bad time
I just want to talk to you about your son did today
He said, leave the kid alone! I still cry sometimes, do you?
and it was the noblest act of courage that I have ever seen
I make parents see their children for who they are and what they can be
you wanna know what what I make?
I make kids questions
I make them criticize
I make them apologize and mean it
I make them write, write write
and then I make them read
I make them spell definitely beautiful, definitely beautiful, definitely beautiful
over and over again
until they will never misspell either one of those words again
I make them show all their works in Math and hide it their final drafts in English
I make them realize that if you got this
then you follow this
and if somebody tries to judge you based on what you make
you give them THIS!
now let me break it down for you
so you know what I say is true
I (teacher) make a goddamn difference
now! what about you?
