There are some really great teachers. Sadly, they are far too out numbered by the lousy to downright harmful ones. Sometimes, the one (or for the lucky kid two) great teacher(s) save something in a kid or spark something. When people go into how teachers' pay is so bad and if they got paid better we'd have better teachers, I feel like that is too simplistic. Just paying lousy, unimaginative or even cruel teachers more is not going to make them great teachers. It might attract more of the better ilk but it's not going to cull the herd.
