My opinion of teachers. 2011-06-23 18:38:36 Reply

I have no real problem going to school. I see my friends, I leaarn intresting things, and I have something to do for 7 hours instead of stare at a brick and wonder where cheese comes from.
But I find that some actions teachers preform agrivate me to the brink of violence. It makes me wonder why they even applied for their jobs. Here is a list of these things

smart aelick comments on my papers.
I'm content with getting a D on a test. it tells me that I made a mistake, and gives me somwthing to work on improving.
But when the teacher writes, "I was being generous by giving you this D", I then want to strangle a horde of infant merkats with a pair of pliers. Your job is to grade my paper, not tot try and make me feel like I earned les than what I got. I'd rather get a -2/0 than read that little sentence.

Comparing me to other students.
I am not Marcus Conroy (hypothetical name), I was not raised to be Marcus Conroy, My parents are not the parents of Marcus Conroy, so why do you think I have to be like Marcus Conroy? If you want everyones work to be like Marcus Conroys, adopt marcus Conroy and homeschool him.

assigning work that isn't taken up as a grade.
I might as well go throw rocks at a dead moose all day. This work is pointless. It just shows how lazy the teacher is.

getting mad when I don't do work that isn't taken up as a grade?
Its like they're saying, "Why didn't you throw those rocks at that dead moose?" because it doesn't make a difference.

being hitler
I accept that teachers have athourity, but why do they think they have to jump down my throat for telling a pollock joke? And send me to A.E. for asking for a pencil? they are power drunk sadists who rape their tenure until it begs for mercy.

"I get the last word."
Lets go back to 2nd grade, shall we? the last word is worth about as much as Alfred Hitchcocks decroded nose hairs. just say what there is and be done

"stop wasting class time"
I talk for 2 seconds and you ramble on for 10 minutes, and I'm the one wasting time -_-

"My teaching is fine, your an idiot"
Teachers who thing they are never in the wrong, and that all the problems fall on the student. Maybe if you'd teach for more than 5 minures and stay of your Iphone, there would be no problems.

whisch leads me to my last and most important complaint,

I G N O R I N G P R O B L E M S
When a student is legitametely struggling, the teacher doesn't care. He/She just leaves the student behind and goes on teaching the rest of the class. Then gets mad at him for doing bad on grades because he doesn't know the content. Is that fair? No. and they'll say, "The world isn't fair." yes it is, you just can't deal with responsibility and let the child learn nothing. YOU are what makes the world unfair, and you don't deserve your job. you signed up just so you could feel powerful above abunch of teenagers. Real respectful.

Oh, I forgot,

Demanding respect.
I respect teachers who earn it. Your little teaching degree doesn't mean anything. you want respect? don't try getting in a fight with a teenager. that just proves your weak and desperate for power.

And these are the things Things teachers do that annoy me to no end.

Have a nice day.

What you say happens to be more true than most people think. Most students have dealt with these kinds of teachers, and they can legitimately attest to the foolishness, audacity, and provocative nature of these teachers.

That wasn't a wall of text. It was perfectly readable. If you can't be arsed to read it all, that's fine. But you don't need to post.

I was actually expecting an immature rant, but you're right for all of those. Some High School teachers do some or all of those things, and it really makes that class unbearable.

I've seen people who were a lot worse. I don't think it's that bad. Isn't that covered by TLDR?

So you want to be coddled like a 2 year old child?


Comparing me to other students.

they want you to improve


assigning work that isn't taken up as a grade.

Or it allows better understanding of the subject and doesn't fuck over the kids who don't understand it


getting mad when I don't do work that isn't taken up as a grade?

It's basically saying "I don't want to understand the material, neener neener" You look like a shithead when you do it


being hitler

Godwins Law


"I get the last word."

You're a fucking child to them, your word doesn't mean dick


"stop wasting class time"

I Kind of agree with this


"My teaching is fine, your an idiot"

Yeah none of the stuff in this sentence ever happened, the op is overreacting and crying.

I G N O R I N G P R O B L E M S

Since it wasn't stated in this sentence that the student didn't ask for help, I'll assume the student expeced the teacher to be a mind reader, stupid and unreasonable.

Demanding respect.

They get up early every morning, and deal with crying little shits like OP, the is something to respect

Good write up, Smitty. I share your views on teachers.

What I really hate is knowing our future (what we are taught in school will make an impact on what we become, this is a definite) is in the hands of people who actually don't care about us, but instead, want to make money. I think that's probably the worst feeling, because teachers can't fail us, only we can fail ourselves. This is why I'm so happy there are tons of free educational resources on the Internet for independent learning -- but at the same time, this makes teachers that much lazier.

Everything you said are actually very valid complaints. Teachers should literally cater to the needs of the students when it comes to learning. All of these things are frowned upon by the teaching community and are vices according to the book Teachings Kids K-12, A Reflective Approach.

Nah. Obligatory dickhead response, on the other hand, is what would have been the correct categorization.

see, this proves me right, anyone who disagrees with you is, in your eyes, automatically a "troll", not someone who, unlike you, has a legit reason to be angry, cause you're a fucking idiot.

I agree.

What REALLY bothers me are the teachers who complain. Yes, it isn't fun to be dealing with little kids whining all day, but you chose this job, you also have the ability to make the best of it.

Seriously, do you get "angry" because someone expressed some valid complains of something unrelated to you? If so, you might need professional help or medication.

Any reasonable person that has been through school knows that teachers are not perfect, and there are quite a few that have negative attitudes for unjustifiable reasons. Dismissing everything the OP said as ''idiotic" despite this seems to me like the typical behavior of someone with anger issues.

There are valid complaints about teachers, the OP just didn't say any of them.
Some complaints such as:
Not understanding the material themselves.
Giving bad help to the kids who ask for it
but I don't talk in detail about them because it would make me seem like a angsty cunt.
