A former English teacher going viral after posting a raw
2
and unfiltered farewell video as she leaves the classroom behind after just three years.
3
Listen.
4
A lot of these kids don't know how to read
5
because they have had things read to them or they can click a button and have something read out loud to them.
6
I just don't think these kids even care.
7
They don't they don't care about making a difference in the world.
8
They don't care about how to have a resume.
9
They don't care how I mean how to write a resume.
10
They don't care how to write THEY ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET A LITTLE BIT OF THEIR CHILDREN.
11
THEY ARE GOING TO GET A COVER LETTER BECAUSE CHATCHIE BECAUSE HE WILL JUST DO IT FOR THEM.
12
AND I THINK THAT WE NEED TO CUT OFF TECHNOLOGY FROM THESE KIDS PROBABLY UNTIL THEY GO TO COLLEGE.
13
HANNAH IS A FORMER TEACHER AND SHE JOINS US NOW.
14
SHE POSTED THAT VIDEO.
15
MORE THAN A MILLION PEOPLE HAVE SEEN IT,
16
HANNAH, PROBABLY MORE BY THE TIME WE'RE ON THIS MORNING.
17
As I said in my video,
18
I wasn't always a teacher.
19
I actually started my career in digital marketing.
20
So I've been in the digital world for about five years now or since I've graduated.
21
And throughout the three years,
22
I've taught digital arts classes and I've taught an English class.
23
And I would say that in all of my teaching experience,
24
technology has posed quite a challenge.
25
And with AI becoming so accessible to children nowadays,
26
especially teaching in an English or core four classroom,
27
it's been especially challenging kind of to have the kids comprehend and critical think and think for themselves on certain things.
28
So on my way out,
29
I wanted to kind of raise awareness and just let people know how AI and technology is affecting their children these days.
30
Right, I know coming from a mother who taught for 33 years,
31
my sister's a teacher in South Carolina,
32
the challenges that y'all deal with,
33
this is even before AI was a thing,
34
I'm sure it's even more challenging now AND YOU ARE A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER.
35
YOU ARE A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER.
36
I'M SURE YOUR STUDENTS LOVED YOU.
37
WE HATE TO SEE SOMEONE LEAVE EDUCATION BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS WITHIN THE CLASSROOM.
38
GIVE ME SOME EXAMPLES OF WHAT THE STUDENTS ARE SAYING TO YOU.
39
WELL, A LOT OF STUDENTS,
40
AND I DO WANT TO BE CLEAR,
41
I TAUGHT a lot of very motivated and bright children.
42
And so I don't want this to come off as if this is all the kids fault.
43
But I do know that a lot of times in my English classroom,
44
I would ask them to write down a short response or just five sentences to answer a question.
45
And a lot of times it would be about two and a half sentences,
46
and they would say, well,
47
I can't think of anything else to say,
48
or, well, why do I have to answer in complete sentences like you get the point from what i'm saying
49
and just this little sentence
50
and then a lot of times i would assign um essays long form essays
51
and i know how children write especially
52
when they hand write me things in the beginning of the school year
53
and so when a student how i know how they write typically would give me a very eloquently
54
and thorough essay on a topic um that i know
55
that normally wouldn't come from them i would ask them was this really you
56
and and I'd run it through an AI generator.
57
And of course it would say a hundred percent chat GVT or AI.
58
And I would speak to the student and they would more so question of,
59
well, if I have to redo this,
60
how much is it really gonna affect my grade?
61
Can I just take zero?
62
Oh my gosh, trying to take the easy way out.
63
Yeah.
64
Is it promoting just a laziness among our children?
65
I suppose,
66
and a lot of them are just feeling as though they don't really need to do the work anymore
67
because AI will just do it for them.
68
And I think that AI can be in a classroom in a very effective way
69
if we teach children in the older grades how to use it properly.
70
But if we're allowing them this unlimited access in the classroom to use AI,
71
they're not going to do the work themselves.
72
Yeah, I know you're a proponent of getting technology out of our classrooms,
73
getting the phones out of our classrooms.
74
I still can't believe some schools are allowing that.
75
Thank you so much.
76
I'm so sorry you had to leave the classroom.
77
What are you gonna do next?
78
Yes, well, I actually am working in a nonprofit now.
79
I run donor relations development and digital marketing for them.
80
So I'm back in what I was doing before teaching and I'm loving it so far.
81
All right, well, Hannah, thank you for giving up THE FACT THAT WE HAVE BEEN

Why practice speaking with this video?

In the compelling video featuring a former English teacher sharing her candid thoughts about technology's impact on student learning, English learners can find a rich resource for improving their speaking skills. By engaging with this content, you will not only enhance your comprehension but also develop your ability to articulate your opinions on important educational topics. Practicing speaking through videos like this allows you to immerse yourself in real-life dialogues, which is essential for gaining fluency. Regular use of such engaging materials can help you learn English with YouTube effectively, as you mimic the natural rhythms and intonations of spoken English.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

This video offers key insight into spoken English grammar and expressions that can help learners communicate effectively. Here are a few structures to focus on:

  • Direct Quotations: The speaker frequently uses direct quotes from her students, illustrating real conversations. For instance, “Well, why do I have to answer in complete sentences?” This structure is crucial for expressing thoughts directly from others.
  • Conditional Statements: Phrases such as “If we cut off technology…” demonstrate effective use of conditional forms. These structures are vital for expressing hypothetical scenarios in everyday discussions.
  • Present Simple Tense: The teacher often uses the present simple to share observations, e.g., “They don’t care about making a difference.” This tense allows speakers to convey facts or regular occurrences, an essential skill for IELTS speaking practice.
  • Question Forms: The use of rhetorical questions, like “How are they going to write a resume?” encourages engagement and debate, making it a useful technique for developing conversational skills.

Common Pronunciation Traps

As with any spoken content, there are specific words and phrases that may pose pronunciation challenges for English learners. Here are a few to consider:

  • “Technology”: This word can often trip up non-native speakers due to its syllable stress. Focus on pronouncing it as tech-NOL-o-gy, ensuring the second syllable is emphasized.
  • “Resume”: Make sure to differentiate between the noun meaning a summary of work experience and the verb meaning to continue. The pronunciation varies slightly; the noun is typically pronounced as reh-ZOOM, while the verb is pronounced as REZ-yoom.
  • “Caring”: This word can sometimes be pronounced with a silent ‘r’ depending on regional accents. Focus on pronouncing it clearly to convey emotion effectively.

By practicing shadow speak techniques with this video, learners can significantly improve both their articulation and confidence when speaking about complex subjects like education and technology. Engaging with content that discusses real-world issues can provide an excellent backdrop for IELTS speaking practice, enriching your vocabulary and comprehension.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
