School nearly managed to kill my curiosity.
Nooo you can't learn about this physics stuff, you haven't learned the math yet.
Yes, that's a great question, hold it until next school year.
No, I can't explain that, it's not part of the subject matter.
Yeah, teachers should absolutely prioritize the kids that are a bit ahead over the majority of kids /s
yeah, but they shouldn't hold the class back because of the idiots either
I see your point but since I'm talking from my perspective, it would have done a lot if I wasn't actively held back just because it didn't fit my teachers' schedule or whatever.
There's a lot of examples of terrible teacher behaviour in this thread
In my school, the teachers would stop to listen to me retell complete sci-fi bullshit from the Discovery chanel.
They thought I was smart, because I liked watching that...haha...
I had one really good high school science teacher. He pushed the school to start a class with the curriculum of "what do y'all wanna learn." I have never cared more about learning than trying to wrap my head around special relativity and the constant speed of light, or building rube goldbergs on the lab tables in the back. Imagine: kids want to enjoy learning! Fucking WOW! (little bit of spite there at the end)
Sounds like you had lame ah teachers. Some of my would take the time to explain relevant future concepts
