Atlanta teacher does "Like Me" dance with students, internet says he's teacher of the year?

[catskill247]

If he was Black man, doing this, would he be teacher of the year?

They would say he was dancing inappropriately with the children
And He was not acting his age or like an adult

Imagine if he was dancing with white kids
They would say he was dancing with them in a sexual manner
Want him fired, arrested
Maybe shot

But can the students solve reading comprehension questions?

 

[Ohnoits]

What are your thoughts on this? Is this just fun? Is this what we expect from our teachers? Do you think he's the teacher of the year as some are saying?

That's cool. I had teachers that would do this when I was a kid and they were always the best ones.

 

[GodinDaFlesh]

Does this change your mind or nah?

I think he's preparing them for failure. Life is not one big ass party. There are going to be boring shyt you will have to get over with. No college professor I had was like this, they were usually dry and straight to the point. Now if they're next teacher isn't as hype they're not going to learn.

Mad haters in this thread.
He probably does more to help the black community than yall ever did.

Google who he is and what's he's done and then come back and edit your comments.

Nope makes me even more disgusted.

fukk you disgusted about?

Some of you are insufferable.. you see a bunch a black kids actually having fun at school, which is a breath of fresh air compared to most of the other thread we have about black kids in school and you're disgusted because they got a white teacher dancing with them? Granted the whole "Teacher of the year" stuff is over reached, still..

Some of you just love being miserable.. go outside.. contrary to what the coli would have you think.. the world is not all gloomy..

Bu bu but I post about whitey on the coli and stay in the tamir rice thread, ass nikkas,

 

[L&HH]

Cac this and cac that. Well this cac is teaching our black youth, while you coli nikkas try to get certs and fukk pawgs. Bet there isn't 1 fukking teacher in this thread. fukking disgraceful. Props to white boy.

Thecoli can have it's low moments at times. nikkas don't try and look past the social media "hype" and see what this teacher is really doing. Blame the media for trying to marginalize this guys teaching has some minstrel show or whatever nikkas in this thread are insinuating. What this teacher is doing is far past that. I'll leave ya'll with one statistic...99% of the students at his school goto college. Instead of us trying to shyt on the man, maybe we need to figure a way to export what he's doing elsewhere. It goes back to a point I made in that thread about that judge in the affluenza case: We're so fukked up we don't even know who are enemies are.

This place is miserable.

 

[ridedolo]

Seems like a cool teacher

Cool to see a teacher relate to their students. From what i've read he founded an academy in South ATL where most of the 500 students are black and have heard nothing but success stories.

I still think Geoffrey canada should be teacher of the year if he hasnt yet won it.

so you're trying to say that black kids can only learn by dancing?

i never did a dance at school n my life and i was always in honors

White people doing stuff and things, stuff and things yall

Seriously doubt it. Dude probably is a great teacher, but black folks seem to get infatuated whenever they see a white person doing one of our latest dances.

Other cultures do this too, it's natural IMO.

Take your black ass (I'm assuming) somewhere with a different culture/dance/activity and there is a good chance you become a novelty and interesting to the people doing the stuff and the things.

Yeah we end up putting folks on a pedal-stool in the process more often than not for doing something we do but it's really just showing a natural fascination for someone different doing something unexpected.
