Hey all,
I decided to try out a rather queer topic for a change for a thread here XD. This was partially imspired by my 7th grade teacher and partially by the fact that i got a horrid teacher for this MP of gym x_x
Teachers:
We all had them at one point or another in our lives. Which teacher(s) do you remember the most? Which one(s) do you recall having the biggest impact on your life? Or even, what teacher(s) do you recall despising or even adoring?
Rant/Rave about your teachers from your past/current time. (:
--Zora

@Jeddi - aww... your kindergarden teacher was probably teasing you hehe (o:... your 7th grade teacher seams like a grrr face... i had a horrible 7th grade teacher for science too... irony? aww... joking about being poor is an odd topic between a student and teacher?
I had a small worth experience with my 6th grade history teacher in elementary school...:
it was halloween and i didn't feel like dressing up... so i wore my karate uniform with my first degree black belt during that time... turns out he was part of the karate "family" that i belonged to... we ended up sparring in front of the whole class... we didn't know that each belonged to it... even though we went to many of the same tournaments and competed on one team or even against each other haha... we thought it was hallucinations up to that point haha XD
my 4th grade teacher did a lot of crazy things... one way i came into class and she was standing on the table trying to get a bird out of the trailer (which was my class during the 4th grade)... all i had to do was whistle and it went out the door fallowing my fall... she called me birdy for the rest of the school year...
i have about 5 more stories... but i gotta blast off
ciao <3

The most memorable teacher I had was my last primary school teacher, from 7th to 12th grade (when I attended a private Christian school). He was the first male teacher I had and was like a father to me -- in a childish kind of way.
I remember, he used to tease me for not being a morning person and calling me the equivalent of Godzilla when I was cranky. lol

My first grade teacher chewed me out in front of the entire class and made me cry when my mom's alarm didn't go off and I was late to school once. She said that it was my responsibility to get up and get myself to school. That was one of the nicer things she did.
My first second grade teacher (I went through three) wouldn't let me go home once when I got really sick at school, she made me stay the rest of the day. Mom rushed me to the doctors because of how sick I was after school and it turned out I had a fever of 102 and an ear infection in both ears.
She wasn't my teacher, but in fourth grade I had a teacher chew me out and threaten to suspend me when I was eating my snack at recess. When I tried to explain that I needed to on account of being diabetic, she more or less accused me of making it up. The class bully actually risked suspension too in my defense, but it was for naught.
Then my tenth grade homeschool teacher chewed me out for correcting my own work after she told me, "I know you're not cheating." I tried to explain that my mom worked nights and dad's back was so bad and he took so much pain medication he couldn't see straight, and she threatened to have me expelled anyways.
As for good teachers, my third grade one actually came to visit me in the hospital twice when I was diagnosed as diabetic, and brought cards from all my classmates. smile And my ninth grade english teacher rocked, he would randomly burst out into song. biggrin And we talked about authors like Issac Asimov. He so ruled.

Mine was Ms. Leal. She was and is so so beautiful. She's the best Alaska Studies teacher ever (she's native Alaskan so she's good at it). She is always nice to her students and she loved my final presentation at the end of the quarter!

(sorry if my question makes you feel uncomfortable.... you can pass on answering it, if you wish)... i honestly can't understand how those teachers got hired into your school... and at an elementary school level at that... no offense or anything. They seam like more of the kinds of teachers that would be good at a high school level. Aww, that was amazingly sweet of your third grade teacher. She/He must have put a true smile on your face, at the time and made you want to keep battling! (: Your 9th grade english teacher seams like a great teacher; who could not only teach... but have fun as well... they are rare nowadays... (;

(; You can ask if I wear a bracelet, or any other question that comes to mind. I really don't mind answering questions smile But yeah, I'v worn one since I was diagnosed, but I've also had people tell me things like, "anyone can buy those." O_o Because it's so cool to pretend to need insulin the rest of your life. Riiiiight. As for how those teachers got hired, my experiences in California school districts have been somewhat less than you would hope for. I've actually had numerous problems with every school and district I've been to, not just those problems. My theory is that it's easier (and cheaper) to label a kid with real issues a delinquent and problem child (both have been attributed to me because I missed school because my blood sugars would be so high I needed to go to the hospital) rather than try and tailor it to something that child with issues can actually do. Oh they kinda tried when I finally hit high school by putting me in a home schooling program, but then that flew out the window real quick. *sighs* Most days I hate the school system we have. As for my 3rd and 9th grade teachers yeah, they were awesome. biggrin I still smile when I think about them.

Beron - I'm not getting jealous... I had a really pretty teacher at one point to!
Most of this is going to be ranting, because up until the eigth grade, I lived in a hellhole.
The only good teacher I had there was in fourth grade. She was the only teacher who really cared about me. She was pretty and her daghters were nice, the three of them were here for a year.
She had one daughter who was my age, and her other daughter was a couple years older than me.
The next two years I had a real ---ch. I was very bad with homework, and I never did it.
My teacher everyday was overly harsh.
She always told me 'get out, I don't want to see you, don't talk to me, don't look at me, get out.'
Then I sat out in the hallways all day.
She thought she was better than everybody else and called me an idiot on a couple occaisions.
She was not qualified.

She was not qualified. that was almost exactly like my kindergarten teacher; she was mean, yelled at us, and even caused several kids to cry, which made her yell louder

I had teachers of course but barely remember them. In my young life I was merely an "ok" student so I don't think I brightened anyone's day enough for them to interact with me much enough to leave an impression on me. I remember none of my HS teachers except the 2 who taught algebra, one who was bad and made me angry so I got a D in the class and one who was good and said I did well and I got an A in the class. I remember my college professors like the calculus professor who asked me to switch and become a math major. I remember the science professors best of all. College was really great. Post grad I remember many professors, some of whom I know I will never be good enough to emulate, but they will be stars of wisdom and intellectual attainment in my book forever.

Ehm, I didn't leave school that long ago, but well...
First teacher I remember, well, we had a duo were Jan & John... Together they taught us from grade 3 'till 5... Jan retired, but he was seriously an old school teacher. He taught my dad too, so... He was old..
I do remember that he always had a little, no a tiny, dog sitting on the chalk board, which he called "Bibi" (pronounce as bee-bee) and he was watching us I think... When he retired, I was in 4th grade (age 7 I think) and everyone got one Bibi... Hehe, that was funny actually...
When we were in 6th grade we had 15 (!) different teachers and there were just 9 of us. Started with student-teachers who came and left, there was no set one, so temp after temp. In the end it was a hobby to scare away more teachers...
Secondary school... I think I love our Economy guy most. 4th year, well... 5th year actually. We had him for 2 courses, 6 hours in the week I believe. Everyone was dead scared of him, but when you got to know him in class, he was the awesomest you could have. Awesome with explaining and he knew prefectly when the class needed a break. He had his cupboard there with old stuff, so when we looked out the window, he watched with us and commented the sports the other kids were playing. That he was better, so cupboard open and his old sports diploma came out... He also played the flute once... And seriously, nobody ever wanted to come to his classroom in the "free-to-spend" hours we had... Except for his students...
Only had him for 1 year, but I went from 6/10 to 9/10 in that year... :3
