...having some weakness in a particular subject. Yet, I am more worried about the students who don't have the trouble, because I see the teachers as teaching things in a suboptimal way, as they settle with "good-enough", but if we want what is best for our kids (I don't have any), we should go straight to the top, to the best educators. One educator, whose book I read and found inspiring, was Rafe Esquith. I...
