Katherine Watson's teaching style was very different and "unorthodox" because she didn't play by the schools rules. All of the girls knew all the facts, they just needed to gain an opinion about things, and learn to think for themselves. She did not use text books, she used art and told them they didn't have to like it, they only had to consider it. They began to gain an opinion and understanding that they could do so much more than just be a house wife. She believed in every one of those girls, never gave up on any of them. Her teaching style may have been unorthodox but it helped those girls change their views on women and helped them gain an opinion and realize they have a ot of potintial to do whatever they want.
Betty and Spencer marriage was not a good one, you could tell she wasn't happy, He was never around, never there for her like she needed him to be. I felt like she was only married to him because she felt that she needed a man to help her. Later she realized that she didn't need someone that didn't need her. I also feel like her mother wanted her to marry him more than she ever did. Her mother was very old fashioned, didn't believe in divorce, and she wanted Betty to make the marriage work no matter what. Betty becomes a stronger women at the end and divorces him even without her mothers content.
