The english department in most yeshivas do not work. There are a handful of students that listen and the rest are either too tired or uninterested to sit in classrooms that are being taught by mostly incompetent teachers. I don’t understand why they can’t hire normal teachers. If the non-jewish teachers are able to stimulate public school kids in the morning, why can’t they do the same in the afternoon in yeshivas. Why do my boys come home with a new teacher of the day/week in middle of March? Don’t the principals see there’s something wrong with their system? Why are the boys punished constantly with detention and writing assignments, when it’s clearly not their fault that the classes are boring? My son was punished for going to the gym after the teacher dismissed the class 10 minutes early because she finished teaching what she had prepared. What’s wrong with this picture?
