Devin, this is a sad but very common scenario. I've seen several prime examples of good "conductors" but sadly many of which have their own style which determines their worth on conducting. My former band director was a graduate of Baldwin-Wallace Conservatory. She always cued us appropriately and had very smooth and understandable conducting patterns. Another conductor is our new choir conductor. He waves his arms as though he is a bird. Technically, all are to be considered conductors if they have had training and are leading ensembles, but only those who have professionalism appear to be "real conductors." Yes, high school teachers are conductors.
