  • You would be amazed by the incompetence of your students' writing. I have seen the word "desperate" misspelled every way you can imagine. And these students truly are desperate.

      Tomar's writing strategy in this article and his book is to disparage students as incompetent, then to lay the blame on the educational system. I am very willing to take his criticisms of education seriously. I do not agree that he succeeds in exonerating himself from his own fractured character.

    Tomar turned this article into a book and got some publicity from television. Whatever one thinks of his life choices, I think that his criticism of American education is worth considering.

    Tomar writes; "I live well on the desperation, misery, and incompetence that your educational system has created. Granted, as a writer, I could earn more; certainly there are ways to earn less. But I never struggle to find work. And as my peers trudge through thankless office jobs that seem more intolerable with every passing month of our sustained recession, I am on pace for my best year yet. I will make roughly $66,000 this year. Not a king's ransom, but higher than what many actual educators are paid."

    This article is the forerunner of the 2012 book, The Shadow Scholar, by Dave Tomar. All educators should read this.
