Starr spoke of her reasons for leaving teaching, saying:
"I can't do it anymore, not in this `drill `em and kill `em' atmosphere," adding, "I don't think anyone understands that in this environment if your child cannot quickly grasp material, study like a robot and pass all of these tests, they will not survive."
