If you had to choose between a teacher that was a good cop, guidance counselor, advocate, friend and disciplinarian, but didn't teach anything, and another teacher who taught her students but was a bad coop, guidance counselor, advocate, friend and disciplinarian, you would keep the latter and get rid of the former. Of course some of this stuff leads to helping a teacher teach, but in the end teaching is what they are there for.
