Describe your best and worst teacher?

I think my worst teacher has got to be my chinese teacher when i'm in primary school.. haha =D All along, my chinese has been quite good, and thus i need not be joining those extra tuition classes etc.. BUt i happened to be early for school one day, and thus i join in.. I guess that makes the teacher unhappy, and she begin to make remarks about my chinese, saying my grades are not good, and make me attend the tuition!! and i hate for her for that!! haha As for my best teacher, it has got to be my history teacher in secondary school.. haha =D HE's friendly, and most importantly, i'm good in that subject too.. haha

This is a cool discussion. I remember my schooling days and my teachers too. There were some nice ones. In fact, lots of them were nice, but there were 1 or 2 whom were very fierce. But it worked, because the naughty students, including me could submit our homeworks on time, lol..

The worst teacher I ever had was Mrs. Hyde when I was in the first grade. She compared me to my cousins who had her for a teacher years before me. She expected me to be just like them instead of letting me be myself. She also compared my personality to theirs. I never forgave her the unfair treatment she inflicted on me.

i will get back, need to do something

I've had a bunch of really great teachers. However, I'd say the best teacher that I had was in high school and she taught English Literature-Level 4. I found her to be the best teacher because she actually PUSHED and CHALLENGED me; as well as all of her students. Her class was DEFINITELY not an "easy A" class. It was very challenging & took alot of hard work to pass. Honestly, I'm not even sure if she was teaching at the level. The coursework was difficult, but like I said I found her "challenging" to be very good. Another "best" teacher I had is tied with the one above. He was my Algebra and Geometry teacher in highschool. I've always struggled in any type of math class, but he made numbers seem easy. I'm not sure why or how he did. It just seemed easier with him teaching the subjects. He was very passionate about it & actually put forth the extra efforts to HELP the students. First A's I ever got in ANY math class. The worst teacher I ever had was in college...My algebra teacher. Like I said before, I have always struggled in math classes and needed a bit of help; especially after not having any math classes in a few years. I asked this teacher several times for help on this or that. I always got the same response, "It's math. there is only one answer. Figure it out." Of course, that was true. But if someone doesnt know HOW to find the answer HOW are they supposed to FIGURE IT OUT. Lack of teaching all together was why I believe that was my worst teacher. Never went over anything, just "here's your assignment. Read this chapter. Work is due tomorrow, etc" Needless to say, I dropped the class!

i remember a teacher whom i admire he is cute and kind. then he often call me to recite or write on the blackboard. their are times my classmates tease me and i say it is nothing he just like me as being obedient and the pretty student in his class. i keep it simple though i notice my classmates is jealous of me. i don't mind them and i study hard and get good grades. u to now i a still thinking of him and he is not yet married. i do hope will find each other and meet again. i fantasize to be his girlfriend but just keep it to myself. i am bit shy when it comes to telling my feeling..lol..i remember teacher who is worst those with big eyes, frown ace, and those spinster always very strict in teaching, maybe because they have no lovelife and as a students she vent her frustration on us..lol..teachers are fine as long they know to teach well..lol..

Never had a crush on a teacher altho if I look back my 7th grade teacher was some what handsom. I did think I was there to mope around about teachers I was there to learn and I made straight As so I stood out for my teachers in that way not because I really liked them1

My best teacher got me through the General Certificate of Education in Maths. He was so very helpful because it I didn't understand he would explain the topic to me again quite happily. He let me and the other students know the easiest ways to work out some Maths questions. I had to get a grade C or higher to begin my teacher training. I think about him and feel grateful. My worst teacher was the one that I got stuck with from age 14 to 16. He made me feel stupid because he said "it you are so thick I am not going to explain that to you again". That sort of talk made me not bother at all when I was at school doing Maths. I got a grade F in that subject. I got much better grades in all the subjects that I enjoyed. I also liked an English teacher that I had when I was aged 14 to 16. He really inspired me. I went on to study English Literature at university. He showed me some great books. I found him to be an excellent person and he cared about animals too. I wish I could say thank you to Mr Y..., Mr B.... and what a shame to Dr R...

In high school we had this terror teacher, who everyone is afraid of. She was really strict, her subject was hard, her exams were harder, and athletes who come begging for extra credit to reach the grade be able to play don't stand a chance with her. She was fair though, because as long as she can see that you are trying your best in class, she wouldn't fail you despite her reputation. And you know what, when I hit college, I realized that I was very fortunate to have gone through that teacher. I did exceptionally well in the subjects I had with her because I had such good foundation in high school. I also had another teacher, she was extremely nice, good natured, and she was really kind to us, like when she thinks we are having a hard time at quizzes, she would convert it to seatwork, so we can share answers. The bad thing about that is that I never learned anything in her subject. I guess we don't really realize how a teacher is the best or the worst until the school year is over. In the middle of the year, I would have judge the terror teacher as the worst, and the nice teacher as the best. But weighing it out by how much I learned, my rating for both would be reversed. The terror teacher wa sthe best, and the nice one the worst.

I had a teacher that taught me for five years from 1st grade to 5th grade when I lived in Italy many years ago. I believe that a good teacher is so by nature and you cannot instruct someone how to be a dedicated teacher. This lady had a passion for teaching and came from a wealthy background and did not need to work but she did because she loved it and it showed. She knew me better than my mother did and when I left the country to come and live in Australia she cried. I have told this here before; she gave me a children’s book about a newspaper reporter who could talk to animals and would travel the world to interview them. My favourite teacher knew all those years ago about my passion for writing and for animals! As far as a worst teacher, I would have to say the lady who taught me in 6th grade when I first arrived in Australia was old, mean and showed no understanding to the fact that I could not speak a word of English!

My favorite teacher was my sixth grade teacher. Her name was "Mrs. Dutton" and she always had the best patience, which to me is important if you're going to be a good teacher. She also had a very positive attitude about everything. There was nothing that none of us couldn't do, in other words. On the other hand, my worst teacher had to be my third grade teacher. She didn't have any patience with any of us at all. Her name was "Mrs. Cowden". Back then, teachers could use the paddle and she paddled me one time for staying too long in the restroom. I was always kind of slow. I had worn pants to school one time and she told me if it took me as long as it did in the restroom to not wear pants to school any more. She didn't always paddle me but that wasn't the only time she jumped on me. It always upset me, too. Kathy.

My best and worse teacher was the same person. She was my English teacher all through High school. I went to a small private school so we had the same teachers all four years. My English teacher was a pain she required nothing less than perfection. You always dreaded to get papers back from her because they would be covered in red ink. She also made us read books that were on the college level and expected reports on them at a college level. Her final exams were ones people always stressed about and would always loose sleep over. But I realized once I got to college how much I owed to her. She made my college years so much easier since she had already set the bar so high for me. I had learned in high school a technique for studying and writing papers that helped me breeze through college while my friends and roommates were stressing and spending many sleepless nights

Our last subject today was from 5:30pm to 8:30pm, and the professor was the same professor we hated last semester, when she entered, we knew what would happen to the subject hahaha, and when she excused herself for a moment, most of the reactions are "UGGHHH..", "THIS IS REALLY BADLUCK", and "ANOTHER BORING SUBJECT", hahaha.

I had a few favourite teachers at school. I had a great science teacher in high school, he was so enthusiastic about the subject you couldn't help but get caught up with it and love science. My German teacher in high school was also really good I found her teaching methods great, and still have a love for learning newlanguages now. My worst teacher was my design teacher in high school, she was very snooty and would belittle students in front of the class, she was awful and had a bad reputation throughout the school- no-one liked her.

mY FAVORITE TEACHER WAS THE ONE I HAD IN THE 4TH GRADE. sHE MADE EVERYTHING SO INTERSESTING. My worst teacher was the high school english teacher. Everybody just despised her & i did to.

My best teacher was my Latin teacher in high school. She made learning a new language fun and exciting. She had games and competitions for us to use and we watched a series called I, Claudius that got us interested in Roman history as well. She took those of us that really loved the language and culture to Italy - if we could afford it. It was the vacation of my lifetime and I will never forget it...she also took us to state and national conventions which were a blast as well. My worst teacher was an english teacher I had in college last year. He made us sit in a circle like we were in grade school and share our work out loud, which I hate doing. I don't mind reading out loud to others, but I don't like being forced to share my writings with others. He gave us no choice and that resulted in me missing a lot of class but I dont regret it. I hated being forced to do that and I just fought back in the only way i knew how to.

My best teacher was my 7th grade teacher, Sister Eleanor...I don't know why she was so different than the others throughout my school years, but I believe it was her personality and the fact that she accepted all of her students as they were. She didn't try to mold us to be all alike, or to be what she wanted us to be. She didn't want us to be like perfect little robots, and instead enjoyed each of the different characteristics of each of her students, and didn't condone us if we weren't the perfect little student that most expect us to be. As for my worse teacher, I would have to say it was my 4th grade teacher, Miss Sealey. She lived upstairs from my grandmother at the time, and one day, in front of the whole classroom, she mentioned that I walked like my grandmother. From that day forward, I got harrassed from other students that I walked like an old lady. That stayed in the back of mine for a very long time, and it took me years to forgive her. What most teachers don't understand is that they can either make you or break you. Because as you said, they aren't perfect either, and tend to forget that they are a very important influence in your life. And what they do or say, could make a whole lot of difference in a child's life.

i remember my worst teacher are the one who have a lot of favoritism in her class then gives a high grades to those she like. i hate teacher who are unfair, flirt and do not know to teach well.

I can clearly recall my schooldays. I was in front of my favorite teacher Mrs. Thomas. She used to teach us English And Moral Science. She became my favorite teacher as she used to teach us great lessons and her command on English was magical. She once told us that only "You are the best Teacher of Yourself as you learn from Your Mistakes." This was the time when she was awarded as most beloved teacher of the year by the school. I can never forget these words of her. Hope everyone finds such a great teacher for yourself. Good luck, Happy Mylotting.

oh,I remember clearly every one of my teachers,most of them have a warm heart and work hard in teaching.My primary school teacher helped me in studying and learning,espeacially in mathmatics and Chinese,the scene is engraved on my memory.The teacher of physics in junior school tryed to impress the value of scientific research on me,so it influes my job career.
