Why 'unfortunately'? I think there is nothing wrong with being a formal teacher (by Gary Thomas). There are lots of 'formal' teachers who are truly GREAT. Formal does not equal bad. It's just that there is certain fashion on 'progressive' (again, by Gary Thomas) teachers nowadays - but I am not 100% sure that that's the only and the best solution.
51% formal and 49% progressive. I believe, there are different teaching techniques, some of them are fromal and others are progressive. I choose the method that best fits to the subject. Good video, thanks!
Would like to see real devotees of formal and progressive education, so it doesn't look so biased. like the video, had much fun. I qualify myself as 0,01% educator))))
Yeah, I later realized that I couldn't make it unbiased :)) By the way, if you have such devotees of formal and progressive education on your mind - do share :)
Thank you! Yes, I just saw that editing tip somewhere and decided to use it instead of telling all by myself. In fact, now I would make it in higher quality. So you are also informal huh? Is that one of the reasons you started your RUclips channel? 😊
Whoa, it's tough. I'm less of a formal, more of a progressive teacher, I hope. I think any teacher who is in a constant search of new solutions is a progressive teacher ;)
But formal does not mean bad. Formal teachers are also cool. I beloeve many people have experienced great subject teachers and thus aquired great knowledge - though they were tough, 'rigid' and 'retro'. And at the same time, not every 'progressive teacher' (by Gary Thomas) is the best option - they might be too sloppy and not at all suitable for the overall culture of a certain school. No simple answers. Yeah, I agree, it's tough 😀
@@IlnurMiftakhov it was funny to me to mention my profession in terms of formal/progressive. Actually, I don't know exactly what is progressive engineer within tools and skills. Never thought about it. I just always try to do my job as sensible as I can. Different situations need different approaches and different results. And you color "formal" and "progressive" by intonation. So we start to think, that progressive is cool. And the way we call this style is cool, too. Progressive! We like it. We want to be progressive. Even engineers want. At least we want to look progressive:) I thought about it through all the day. What is progressive engineer? I think it is not about tools we use. It's about vision. Even skills are not as important as vision. I will try to figure out something solid about this and will share with you. Sorry for my english.
That's an interesting perspective... It would be interesting to analyze the basic assumptions of 'engineers' and to define what fundamental groups/divisions exist in that field. Do share your thoughts on that if you come up with something
I qualify myself as *76% progressive educator* and *24% formal educator* .
How about you? 👋
This is both entertaining and useful. Thanks a lot. I’m more of a formal teacher, unfortunately. But I appreciate approaches of informal way.

👍👍👍
Glad you liked it. Have you experienced both of the teaching styles? :)))
👏👏👏👏
Could you relate to these teaching styles? 😊
You have a unique way of teaching!
51% formal and 49% progressive. I believe, there are different teaching techniques, some of them are fromal and others are progressive. I choose the method that best fits to the subject. Good video, thanks!
Mmm... Interesting perspective. What teaching techniques - in general - do you use that you refer to as formal and progressive?

Good video about good concept. I think about myself as a progressive teacher, but it depends on students.
Wow, that sounds interesting. What do you mean it depends on students?
@@IlnurMiftakhov for exapmle, when I teach adults - teachers.
So, when you teach adults (teachers) - you become what? Formal or progressive? And why?
@@IlnurMiftakhov when you teach adults, who suppose that know everything about teaching )) you have to be progressive at the best way.
@@maratrf That's funny :))) Thank you for sharing!
Progressive : formal ( 60:40)
Thank you for sharing! 60 for progressive - you must be loving kids a lot
Awesome editing skills! 😊 I feel like I am more of an informal educator, with a tiny percent in formal side 😁

@@IlnurMiftakhov Well, ok, then. We gotta be a bit of both.
😀
Rustam, how many percent are you a formal and a progressive teacher? ✨
@@IlnurMiftakhov I suppose 70 % progressive)
50/50 formal/progressive engineer)))
Wow, how is that? Formal engineer sounds more robust to me 🤔

Well, hopefully I’m a 15% formal educator and a 85% progressive educator 😅
Impressive! Almost at the very end of the spectrum!
