First Week Back At School...and My Ramblings on Teachers

Jan 06, 2010 18:52

It's only been the first week back to school so far and already, I don't like one of my professors. On the first day of class, she kept repeating about how hard her classes were, especially her upper division classes (the class I have her in is, unfortunately, upper division) and how she expects all of us to treat her class as an upper division ( Read more... )

"sarcastic assholes who find the failure of students amusing" lmao! Most of what you said is true. I had a lot of class C teachers when I was in high school. That killed my GPA. If I had to choose between A and B, I would still go for B. I only need to know that I'll survive in that class lol.

LOL, guess you're the type who likes to take things easy. Yeah, Class B teachers can be cool sometimes but usually, I don't learn much from them. But personality-wise, they're great.

I don't know, I always think the Class C instructors are fun, but that's because I have an unhealthy inability to let people think poorly of my intellect; if you say "you're going to fail," I say "bullshit," which is, of course, what they're going for.

Don't worry about the "hard" Prof too much; I've had a few, and they've been some of my favourite classes. They honestly do that to weed out the scaredy-pants, so they can devote time and attention to the people who want to be there. They generally turn out to be the Class A Professors, and they'll go way the heck out of your way to help you out if you're genuinely trying.

Aaah! I'm so jealous that you're back in school already!!!

Whoa, really? I never thought of it that way (how they try to scare away the unwilling students to concentrate on the willing students). But what you said does make sense. I have seen several times how after a lot of students drop out of the class, the professor does seem to become nicer to those remaining, lol.

When will you be back in school? LOL, I'm jealous you still get to relax at home.
