Mr. Escalante vs. Mr. Macfarland


After reading Mike Rose’s essay I would say that Mr. Escalante and Mr. Macfarland are very similar. It seems like both teachers push their students to work their very hardest by assigning them homework everyday, and constantly testing their skills. I think Mr. Macfarland was the stricter of the two teachers, and he assigned much more work then Mr. Escalante. But, I think Mr. Escalante was also more one on one than Macfarland. Both teachers had a lot of times where they would help students outside of the classroom, and that is a rare quality to find these days in a teacher. Most teachers don’t get paid enough nowadays to even bother with the students outside of school hours. Both of these teachers really had a personal interest in their student’s grade, and personal life. Mr. Macfarland and Mr. Escalante both are extremely good teachers, with slightly different teaching methods
