Would you employ this teacher?

My Disney-buddy Sprouse is teaching English in Oxford. She mentioned a drama once when a child jumped on the table during a lesson. I sympathised with her, even when she elaborated that she only taught the one child by himself, he was 12, and it was a private lesson (so she got paid my week's salary in one session).

She sent across her potential teacher profile:

"miss rouse just finished her degree in chemistry and has no teaching experience at all. she has also never learned grammar so is not qualified in any way to be teaching your children. you are wasting your money. outside of academia, her interests include your faces". i'm thinking along these lines. sound ok?

I would employ you Sprouse - maybe this is the business we've been waiting for?
