as a parent, what expectations would you have for your childs teacher and your child.?

Answer 1

I expect the child to listen, participate, learn, interact, and be himself.......wow that is a lot...huh.
As the teacher, I would expect them to give my child every oppourtunity to learn everything they can. I expect if they are having trouble with a project or subject to help them and also notify me of how I may help my child at home. I expect her to be respectful and professional in the classroom. He or She should interact with both myself and my child. I still believe that it takes a village to raise a child...

Answer 2

I am a teacher, so there is some bias here.

But, I would expect kind and respectful behavior at all times. They should be attentive when anyone addresses them, and they should carry themselves with confidence and pride. I teach all of this in my room because without it, learning does not happen.

Your childs teacher should be dedicated and pour 100% of their soul into doing what is best for the whole class. There should be opportunity for your child to be involved in a 3-5 person small group activity at least once a week if they are a "high" student and every day if they are low. The teacher should be strict and consistent in their behavior management and not waver on consequences. Your teacher should expect the students to work at home and stress the importance of learning at home also. And, the teacher should never be buddies with your child, be preferential, or show lack of care.

I have had a very successful year doing this. My kids know I demand perfection in behavior and classwork. I am kind but strict, and I have a system of rewards and consequences. We focus every day on respect and cooperation. And, I have taken some of the worst kids at the worst school in a mid-large city and made them model citizens and learners. However, I expect parents to help out at home at least and stop by to observe their kids and classroom as often as possible.

Answer 3

Dont expect the school to do all the teaching. Support your child too: praise him when he does well, makes sure he does his homework before doing everything etc etc. Attend teacher conferences and ask what you can do as parents to help your child. A teacher has 20 kids to tend to...it becomes more effective at home when there are 2 parents and 1 kid.

Answer 4

I would expect the teacher to apply the knowledge he/she acquires over the years to teach my child. I would expect the child to take in as much of the knowledge they ca acquire from the teacher to teach their kids what the learn. When this occurs it makes a never ending chain.

Answer 5

I'm not a parent, but a child. But if I had kids I would want their teacher to treat every student equally with kindness and respect.

Answer 6

I expect teachers to treat my child like a tender, budding plant.
I expect my child to respond by growing and blooming into his or her greatest potential.
