The training in education which I was required to take for my New York City teaching license was of little practical value to me in classroom 404 of John Marshall Junior High School.I taught two ninth grade adjustment classes - slow learners - and two eighth grade average classes. In all of them, I felt handicapped because I didn't know how to teach or control them.
