One of our teachers was supposed to teach us C, and had no idea of it.
The worst part was that he couldn't even copy the code correctly from the book. His 11-line example, had 8 mistakes, and they were not put in deliberately.

In addition to that he looked like a bum, he had totally worn out cloths (especially the shoes) and brought his stuff to school in plastic-bags...

Just in case you that they get mad at you, I think all under kids don�t like there teachers, only because they don�t like school much.

@Ima, I remember that thread, that was one my few good ones I started Laughing

I think many socialites for modern age pupils should learn more discipline, and then younger children can learn to read and write Literature.

I agree, more disciple, more punishments. I'm all for it. Very Happy

Corporal punishment for high society, would be recommended for school to and high society for pupils if they got out of hand, I would vote on that of opinion would be govern by law and state under law authorise, that would surf and scan all the school if they would cause any conflict.

Lol, the school i'm from had 100 kids in it, preK-12, and they did spank our as$es when we misbehaved... corporal punishment is something that should be observed in all schools everywhere... they even had the cliche paddle with the holes in it and oh yeah, it hurts lol

I'm in the 12th grade ATM, but it's been rather tolerable. No spanking, ever, and mostly it's the students own fault if he stays behind, although the teachers try to do as much as possible so everyone would pass. We also don't have any detentions and stuff, and if he skip classes(or a day) we usually don't get into any trouble(except by our parents maybe), but not by teachers or the principal. The principal and the headmistress really have a small part in everyday studentlife.

Ok, the worst teachers would be the ones who don't want to extend the period(usually 2 weeks) when I can redo a test if it's a two(D in the US).

I was a geek at school. A total geek; never any trouble. One English teacher decided I was a trouble-maker. I have no idea why; so far as I know I didn't do anything untoward in her class, certainly nothing I didn't do in all the others. It got so I was considering asking for a transfer and, judging from my grades a year later, I should have.

My favourite teacher was everybody-else's worst. He had a foul temper and he only lasted a year, by the end of which I think he hated kids. But he taught me to program, so he's forgiven.

I remember two teachers that really made for miserable days...

One was at a school in England. He taught woodwork. Now apart from being rude and unpleasant, he was the sort to spot a problem but not tell you until you'd made a total botch-up - and then hold it up in front of the class. Once he was screaming abuse at a pupil who put an awl through his hand (the pupil's, not the teacher's).

The other taught history in Australia. For some reason he truly despised me and was never too slow to make some belittling comment. Part of it was because he apparently thought that my only real friend and I were gay. He was wrong (and would be still). He was also unbearably smug, with so little reason to be.

The majority of my teachers were completely useless.
How they ever managed to get teaching jobs is a mystery, I would have said that many were completely unemployable.

Mr Singh, Head of English. Couldn't speak English properly and his grammar was appalling. Insisted that his form of broken sing-song English was correct.

Miss Moscovich, another one that could barely utter a few simple words of English. The worst personal hygenie issues that I have every encountered.

Mr Ellerman, a Canadian with serious mental health issues. Wandered aimlessly about as though he was in another World. Which he was.
Carted off by men in white coats to live on the funny farm.

Mr Waiting, handed out text books and told the class to extract whatever information they thought would be useful, whilst he put his feet on the desk, picked his nose and read the Socialist Worker.

Oh could go on and on....... Rolling Eyes

Schools are not all brought forward in the states that laws have govern unruly, they still slack of high self discipline, I would love schools to be more harsh and strict in high society, but pupils need greater teachings.

I can't say that I disagree with that. Wink

My second grade teacher was psycho or something. Her idea of discipline was locking us in the closet, making us sit in a cardboard box, or sending us to the preschool classroom. Then she tortured us with bootcamp-like physical activities so that she could have her precious class "win" field day Rolling Eyes

She hated me, because I had a permanent doctors' note to not participate in Phys. Ed.

My high school German teacher, he had two daughters about my age and once he found out I had dated them both, I was never able to do any good there, failed the course Very Happy

I had an algebra 2 teacher who is not capable of controlling the classroom... and there were a bunch of chatty kids. I had to get them to shut up a number of times myself....

Another teacher would give us a problem to work on... then only let us work on it for an average of 12 seconds before he started to do it for the class.... grrr.

C&P from the last time this was asked:

Quote:

I had a teacher back in high school who was convinced that the year 2000's arrival would bring Jesus back. One day, (this was early 90's) he forgot to take his brain medication and turned the class into an angry rant about how blacks and orientals should "turn themselves white" in order to make Jesus happy when he came back. A beautiful moment when students in my class, of all races and genders, were looking at each other wondering if we were on Candid Camera.

Later that day, at least according to the rumour mill, he started ranting again and let the n-bomb fly. Not even the teacher's union could save his job then.

He then got barred from a nearby University campus for constantly showing up at any sort of religious group that was not Christian and/or white to rant.

He eventually leapt off the roof of a 7 story parking garage. It was in 2001, so I'm guessing the disappointment at Jesus not coming back finally got to him.

I had a college professor who was habitually 30-45 minutes late to class (it was an hour long class), was sometimes at least "tipsy" when he lectured, and who covered material on the exam that was neither in the lecture nor in the text - when asked where this material came from, his response was "You each should have learned that in Cell Biology". When it was pointed out that most of his class (including myself) were not biology majors and had never taken the course in question, he refused to change the grade or to regrade the exams.

Back in highschool I had a math teacher who was shaped like a triangle. She was quite large with a tiny head and a continual nasty disposition.

One day I was in her class after-school to make up a test. As it was late, and I am always tired it seems I would put my head down on my arms if I noticed the test starting to get all "blurry" and rest my eyes (or doze). I had two hours to take the test anyway, and it wasn't that hard (but my worst subject).

So I finally stretch and get up to hand in the paper. She takes it from me and says, "By the way - I know you cheated."

I looked at her - rather shocked - and said something around the lines of, "wha....?!" And she said, "putting your head down so you could read the answers. I just want you to know I saw you doing it." I was completely appalled and, narrowing my eyes I told her something about what complete BS that was. She said she'd grade the test but she had SEEN me do it.

For the record - I've never cheated on an exam. Not yet anyway, and now I'm out of school....

Humm. I think I was signed up for the class. I signed up for a genetics class at the local teacher's college the summer of my sophomore year. The class was full of nursing students and the prof was 45 minutes late. Someone had to go find him. He was drunk, asked to borrow a book just to hold it up and say that he was not going to use it at all. I left, dropped the class and got my money refunded.

States modern school�s that the systems has change there authority, how about pupils in Canadian parts if the country they need more changes, how was the schooling in your days have they changes over the past decade, should pupils become more aware of the behaviour pattern through a high power systems check before entry a school premises.
