Have you ever experienced a teacher in highschool/college being biased in class?

I have experienced this alot in my history and government classes my history teacher in college is a republican and is biased in there favor and so is was my government teacher in highschool who was a democrat and was biased in there favor. Both of them taught the material and told us what they believed. Not a problem but when we got into debates in class its kinda of hard to argue with your teacher. They lied alot to me in highschool and in college I learned things for myself.

    Teachers should be trained to be impartial politically and as unbiased as possible.

    It is fine that they tell you their persuasions, but this should not slant a debate.

    However, teachers are human, too and so we most probably have all experienced a teacher who was biased.

    i have under no circumstances had an adventure with a instructor being biased, or racist. notwithstanding, i have had instructors, as well as friends, make the concept I talk Spanish, at the same time as in reality English is my first and really language. i'm not violently offend via it notwithstanding, and they many times apologized afterwards; this blunders (i wager) is likely made because of the particular undeniable reality that lots of the persons who talk Spanish have similar pores and skin complexion to mine.

    You'll find that in every subject I'm afraid. Teachers are taught to be unbiased and subjective in their learning style, it's just that so many don't adhere to those guidelines, and I can see for either can be hard to be un-bias if you feel strongly one way or another.
