Review for Mrs. Gala Grade 10 Math TeachernnMrs. Gala is, without a doubt, the most ineffective and disinterested teacher I’ve ever encountered. She exhibits a blatant lack of passion for her job and shows no willingness to teach or engage with her students. It’s painfully obvious that she plays favorites, providing attention only to those students who already have a strong grasp of the subject, leaving the rest of us to struggle on our own.nnHer teaching style if you can even call it that is almost nonexistent. She makes no effort to explain concepts clearly or support students who are trying to learn. If you’re struggling, don’t expect any help—she simply doesn’t care. Her laziness is astounding, and it’s clear she has no interest in fulfilling her role as an educator.nnWhile I acknowledge that learning requires effort on the student’s part, it’s impossible to thrive in a class where the teacher is unwilling to do her job. Despite my best attempts to learn, Mrs. Gala’s lack of support and guidance left me with a failing grade.nnIf you’re looking for a teacher who genuinely cares about their students’ success and creates an environment conducive to learning, Mrs. Gala is NOT that teacher. Avoid her class at all costs if you want a fair chance at succeeding in math.

The best adult learning public school in town! YALC & SS is the epitome of support, from the dedicated teaching and non-teaching staff to the enthusiastic students and administrators. This citadel of learning deserves a resounding thumbs up. Thank you for impacting lives.

If I can give this teacher 0 stars I would: The grade 11 math teacher Ms. Gala is by far the worse teacher I’ve ever had. She goes through the longggg math problems super fast without explaining anything and you have to write everything down as she’s going through the tutorials super fast and try to catch up and could care less if you get it or not. When it’s time to take up the questions she tells one of the student to write it down on the board without any explanation at all and leaves you to figure it out for yourself. Also, when you are solving math problems she doesn't want to help you, you will have to figure it out with the person beside you even though you don’t know them. She keeps telling you “you need to recall” like you’ve only recently left math class a month ago when you actually haven’t been in math for 5+ years especially if you don’t like math in the first place. When it’s time to take up the math problems she doesn’t write it down or go through it she just expects you to get it and people drop out of the class so fast & there’s only a few people that do know a good amount of math that will answer right away & you will feel so low and dumb about yourself for not knowing because she didn’t even go through it. Whenever I did decide go up to her and ask for help she would give me this look like she doesn’t want to help or look irritated all the time. For my culminating assignment she gave it to BEFORE we learned about it and I had to redo the whole thing because I was unaware if we were going to learn it or not. She also gives the test review a day before the test so you can’t ask her any questions because you need to complete it for homework if you don’t finish it in class and she will not stay back after school to help you. She lied to me when I asked if I could take a picture of the test review to study over the weekend, but when it came to the day before the test, I asked her if it was that what I studied for over the weekend and she said no. I regret not reporting her to the school. I hope this helps anyone make their decision easier about having her as a teacher.nnThe amount of daily breakdowns I had during this period was very bad for my mental health. If anyone has her please don’t be afraid or intimidated to speak up if you have any questions it is her job to teach or just do yourself a favour and drop out.nnThis school is a good school however depending on the class you are in there are some good friendly teachers out there.
