Comments

  1. To be a teacher you should have a calling. The teachers who have a calling are great teachers. The teachers who teach because it is their job are usually the ones who could care less about a student.
  2. Most of Fremont teachers don’t see what we see; they already have their education, they already have their life straight, and that’s the problem. They don’t try to aid in certain ways, and little effort is expressed from them. This is because most of them don’t believe in us. Of course this is not true for all of the teachers at Fremont High. But the scary thought is that the MAJORITY of them act this way.
  3. I think all teachers at Fremont do their job by helping students learn new things. They are very good in helping students understand the materials they need to know. All teachers TRY to help.
  4. Many of our teachers here at Fremont High School really don't care about the education their students are learning. Some teachers are just there teaching, not caring if their students are learning or not. They're just there because they get paid. When some students ask teachers if they could help them out with the work they give out, they say that they don't pay attention, or just give them the answer without explaining to them how to do it.
  5. I think some of the Fremont teachers somewhat care about the students here. Some are just interested in getting their paycheck and leaving as soon as possible. We need teachers that care about the students and want to teach, not just get money.
  6. Most teachers here are just here to get paid but I have to admit that like 5% care about the students and whether they are learning or not.
  7. There are many ways that one could explain the way of learning at Fremont. There are too little materials. For example there are not many books for every student. One can not learn by themselves. There are too many substitute teachers in the school. And in the class there are too many people in one class in which one can't find a place to sit down. And with too many people one can not learn. But there are teachers that are in the magnet that do teach the subject and at the same time they make it fun so that one can learn.
  8. Many teachers at John C. Fremont care about teaching their students everything they can about a certain subject, but there are also those teachers who don't care about their student’s education.
  9. The teachers should really try to teach the students classes that are really useful for college!
  10. Teachers here at Fremont sometimes are not here. They are often absent and for that reason we sometimes get really behind on our class work and get full blame for it because they believe that we paid no attention.
  11. Some of the teachers at Fremont need to be better prepared to teach a class, with good skills and appropriate lessons.
  12. Most of my teachers help me out a lot with my work, especially my math teacher. If I have a problem and if I ask him to help me, he gives his undivided attention to me and helps me out, he makes sure I understand it. He does this to all the students that need help.
  13. There are teachers who care about their students that are willing to help and provide help in their free time.
  14. Some teachers at this school actually want the student to learn and they give up they’re time and work to help the student succeed. Although that there are some teachers who literally are lazy and make you watch a video and take notes which you don’t learn anything.
  15. Fremont is a very good school. It is just that the students and teachers give it a bad reputation. The appearance of the school also gives it a bad look. Overall it’s a good school.
  16. The teachers here at Fremont can actually try a little harder to teach the students here at Fremont, but sometimes the students make the teachers not want to teach!
  17. I feel fortunate to have the teachers I have. I believe they want to help me and do a great job at it. They are very dedicated.
