She can be ok sometimes but most of the time she is a *** who gives out all the time. Sometimes on the last day of school before a holiday like Christmas or something she is nice and gives us sweets and lets us watch a movie or something. But ye most of the time she is a *** *** and I hate her.

Libby Held, Holly High School, Holly, MI, 48442
Teachers like Mrs. Held are frustrating. It would definitely be understandable if they wanted kids to succeed in college and therefore gave them really picky feedback, allowing them to eventually reach high standards. (I've had a handful of teachers like that, and they're usually my favorites. :) ) However, a teacher shouldn't expect the students to meet the higher standard right off the bat--especially if, like it sounds Mrs. Held does, they can't even explain what that standard looks like. In truth, it seems like Mrs. Held couldn't explain her OWN grading. That raises a red flag. Now, I get that English grades are all somewhat subjective. However, there's a difference between Mrs. Held's grading and English teachers who don't have a totally foolproof grading method--but at least have a decently reasoned approach behind their thinking. Again, picky feedback does help students grow, so I would actually be okay with her giving students college-level *feedback* on their work. On another note, the unnecessarily picky *grading* really does hurt kids. Whether or not the colleges with purported "holistic admissions" want to admit it, so much of their decisions are still based on grades, especially junior-year grades. Teachers know those facts full well! It's not exactly fair for intelligent, diligent kids to be held to college-level standards grade-wise and therefore have to worry their dream school will reject them. Again, teachers know that full well! Plus, Mrs. Held, if you are truly worried your students will not be prepared for college if you don't grade them like you would a college student...please don't be! These are honors kids; unless they truly don't deserve to be in the class, their work ethic and abilities will be enough to do just fine--or better--in college. And if a student does not deserve to be in the class, please talk to the principal and knock them down to regular English! Please be harsh...when it's fair. Mrs. Held, if you can just save the picky criticisms for the feedback, not the grading and kick out kids who genuinely don't deserve to be in honors--I think your teaching style might be much more valuable to eleventh graders. Though ultimately, if you still feel the need to treat your high school students like college students, let's admit it...you might just not like high school kids. Which doesn't mean you're a bad person! At all!!! I don't really like high school kids myself. In my opinion, they are generally relatively awkward and entitled. Still, please don't make the kids bare the brunt of your attitude if you feel that way. And don't put yourself through a job you don't truly love! You work with kids more than they work with you...so I can't even imagine working a *full-time* job with people you don't like at all. As this reviewer mentioned, you might love teaching at a community college. You might be happier and more beneficial to students there.

tonia humphrey, malcolm x college, chicago, IL
instructor is very inconsiderate. will not work with you if your sick, family emergency, ect. She will fail you talks down to students and gives us a boatload of homework and does not accept any late assignments. Even if you give it to her at the end of class, will deliberately fail you. Out of my class of 30 only 7 will attend due to Mrs. Humphrey and her attitude. I wish i had known better i would've picked a different instructor for reading. always states that she is only a part time instructor however an instructor w a attitude such as hers should not be allowed to work in any facilities. i wish i could give her a zero however the grading scale would not allow me to do so.

Milton Whitley, Dallas Community, El Centro, Dallas, TX
He was finally fired. I was one of the students that complained. I am 32 years old. It has taken me a lot of time to save up for college and to make time for classes given that I work fulltime and am married. I didn't make these sacrifices so that I could listen to a lying, ignorant instructor like Milton Whitley. How do these people get hired??? I can't figure out how this guy is a tax preparer. He is horrible with numbers. He struggles using a calculator. Watch him.

Libby Held, Holly High School, Holly, MI, 48442
As a parent I have absolutely loved every teacher my child has had in this district. However, junior year Mrs Held has changed that. I am truly trying to find value in her, but it just isn’t there. She is rude to kids, she decides on day one how they will do (and admitted that to another parent). My child asked for some additional understanding, and her response was just to send the ruberik not actually answering the question. When she went back to her for further detail, Mrs Held responded back “college level”. While this is an honors class and all the kids have been in honors English classes since 7th grade that are in the class nowhere in the course description does it say college level and this is the class that was the option of you didn’t want to take AP but still had to stay in honors because average level wasn’t an option based on prior year course selection. She really needs to go retire and get a job at a community college if that’s what she feels she is capable of.

Dan betti, Collin college, McKinney, TX
He is a good teacher, but expect work. I’m talking about 1 essay and 2 discussions in 2 days, and he doesn’t grade easy either even knowing he only gave you 2 days. I suggest looking for another professor. Going into the class is worthless too as he only talks about things he expects you to write in the essay everything else is reading the text book.
