I'm a teacher,
never once have I raised my voice to a kid. If I'm completely composed it scares the shit out of the troublesome ones. In all seriousness, I've only met one kid who I couldn't see the good in, such is life, there's always one or two. As for the shouty bastard teachers, they're the reason I became a teacher. One more of my type means one less of them.

I'm a teacher too!
I, too, rarely raise my voice. The only reason to do so is to prevent an accident or to prevent a deliberate act of unkidness.

Loud teachers = loud children. Loud children = Noisy classes. Noisy classes = no learning going on.

DON'T SHOUT AT CHILDREN!

There. does that have the correct effect on you all?

Thank you.
