stuff you like/dislike about your teachers

Google? I mean, that's not like a deep concept you have to learn, just a formula (CO₃^-2 and CN^-).

It's not that it's hard to remember or look up, it's that we should have been taught the material in-class rather than having to look it up ourselves to do the homework.

Eh.
I mean, yeah, then teaching it is certainly better than not, but it's pretty trivial to research.

As someone who is currently taking an Education Theory course I can assure you that it is the role of the teacher to facilitate learning and to provide students with the material they need to achieve the expected results for the course. If a teacher expects their students to know something that they haven't taught them then they aren't doing their job properly, plain and simple.

they're all trash

[Brass]

it's kind of upsetting when kids are acting like blatant richardheads and the teacher sadly doesn't have the energy to deal with it anymore.

Am I the only one that didn't have some strange vendetta against my teachers?

[Silboy20]

That the replacement teacher doesn't know stuff about their replacement section and doesn't let the class dismiss and were stuck doing jackstuff for 50 minutes.

[Rigel]

At my school, it's like teacher roulette.

For every subject, there's 2 teachers, one that everyone loves, and one that everyone hates. Then for the 0 on the wheel, there's the BETA classes which just always overload their students with extra work.

Imagine college amounts of work from each beta class.


Say for my algebra teacher, she's nice and lets us do one retake on certain tests/quizes and tutors the students during lunch that need it. But the other teacher... I heard that someone asked her to slow down a bit, and she said no. She's pretty mean.

when they stay for forever on a slide for students who have never been made to learn to take efficient notes. all my classmates write stuff word for word and have never been forced to take efficient notes and they'll never learn it if the teacher doesn't enforce a faster pace. it's really not hard to compress a full slide of notes into 3 lines.

when they don't write up/send out a student who's causing problems

[Juliun03]

when the PE teacher does nothing at all
and they are young too

[DataProxy]

Hates when teachers aren't at his level of learning speed.

Hates teachers who drone on and don't get stuff done.

Hates substitutes.

Hates starfish teachers.

Hates teachers who pick favorites.

Hates teachers who are hypocrites.

>implying 'efficient' notes are useful for everyone
i have to write the whole slide, word for word, because i don't comprehend it well if it isn't as bluntly stated as possible

it's not too hard to pick out the meat of the information and rewrite it in a brief way that gives you the information necessary. i use a lot of shorthand and write quickly and therefore end up sitting around for a good ten minutes while my classmates talk, scream loudly when the teacher moves to change the slide, and then write the slide word for word. it takes all class period to get through a 10 slide lesson and it's so frustrating for me because i want to go and get the notes done and get my work done so i can do other stuff.

you've never witnessed the cringe that is people attempting to use memes in public, have you
My school's a mixed bag for teachers. My english teachers have been p chill and/or understanding when it comes to being people and not work giving machines, and actually try to make sure people understand before continuing(a miracle in public school), and have tried to pick books that actually engage people rather than going with the standard 'read moby richard! now read some greek! now read moby richard again!' formula i've heard some do. But that's probably the fault of our school district.

    My history/geography/whatever teachers have been really cool, and are actual people who treat their class more like talking to a group of friends(professionally) rather than a class. Works weirdly well. Don't like the course contents for them though because they're a little biased (read: one party state is always bad! communism is bad! democracy and capitalism are GOOD.), but I can understand why.

    Sciences are either boring or a stuffhole. I hate chemistry with a burning passion(even though i can sorta understand it) now thanks to that teacher, who tested us literally every other class and made us learn half the content ourselves(also partially the fault of <local school district> since they provided the tools to do this), then had the audacity to claim it was our fault as she took heat from her boss, coworkers, students, and parents of students. Dumb. Biology was ok though, even if it was useless(MITOCHONDRIA IS THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL!).

    Math is pretty typical. Hated my geometry teacher because he gave zero forgets unless he could verbally kick you in the shins for doing something wrong(without telling you why). Liked my alg 2 teacher though, he was cool(and funny), even if his voice did put me to sleep.

    Most other courses tend to be taught by people who actually enjoy them(except foreign languages. forget those), or at least tolerate them, so they're good.
