Physicist teachers ...is very common BTW.


 

Even Albert Einstein try to get work teaching and only managed to get
only 3 students to pay for his classes.


And the fact is...Physics teachers today are not qualified to
teach...Physics!


Only 1/3 of all high school physics teachers have a degree in physics or
physics education.
Almost 1/3 of all high school physics teachers have taken fewer than 3
college physics classes.
90% of middle school students are taught physical science by a teacher
lacking a major or certification in the physical sciences (chemistry,
geology, general science or physics).
Our local and regional school districts have had substantial difficulty
finding and retaining qualified physics teachers. 52% of New York City
high schools do not even offer physics.

(of course everyone can tell JanB is...selftaught.)
