Education & Reference - 4 January 2007

I was bullied by the gym teacher(when I was a teen)I was not good in sports and PE.The teacher called me names like fag and sissy in front of the class.One time I missed the ball in volley ball and He took me and threw me against the wall and said what is wrong with you.I reported it to
the principal and he said I deserved it and it will make me try harder.Said you deseved to be punished when you are
not good at something.
The next time he thew me against the wall and called me
a ****** because I was not good in PE class I cussed him out and got suspened for 2 weeks and my parents went to
the s school board about this and the coach lied his way out out of it.None of my classmates would speak up as
a witness because I guess they were afraid.
When you are a kid how do you stand up for yourself with
abusive adults?

I've decided that I want to finish my B.S. Degree in Mathematics with a teacher certification, and go straight into graduate school right after I graduate. My career goal in life is to become a full-time instructor at a Community College. I know that I must acquire a master's and have 18 hours of the field in order to qualify to teach, but I was told by a former math instructor that hiring committees view a pure Math Master's degree over a Master's in Mathematical Education.

Any tips or suggestions?

One sentence reads, "So, having a Democratic Congress might be more beneficial..." Should the word congress be capitalized? Later on in the document there is another statement "...this last Republican controlled Congress did not..." Again, should congress be capitalized? I have called the library, too... Thanks for your help.

I love children and at parties people ask me if I could watch their grandchildren or children, because they trust me. I know this is my calling. I'm great with children. Where should I start? What should I do? I want childhood development as my career, I don't want to be a babysitter. I have two of my own. I want to wait till they are in school before I start. I've known since I was little this was my calling to work with children

Well.. One day at practice my coach had threatened to punch me in the face if i did not do this move right. AND..I know she wasn't joking about it because she had made it clear in front of the team that she was serious. So would that threat be an illegal action of my coach?

Public school teachers play a vital role in today's society. Someone in such a critical position should not be allowed to strike just as individuals employed with the FAA and so on.

Because I heard that even though if you get A's in regular, the colleges only look at honor student first then regulars, so basicly I'm saying being the lowest in honors better than highest in regular?
