[@tofuyuhiko5632]

I totally believe that a teacher makes or breaks your love for a subject or hobby. My favorite subject tends to always be the one with the best teacher, and my friends agree. imo, that’s a dangerous sort of pattern considering we’re all trying to chase down career paths, and are falling in and out of interest of things we need for college.

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

You can't let one braying jack-ass turn you bitter toward any subject. You should go and see something of it for yourself, and decide for yourself what the interest really is. I had a few miserable excuses for teachers. In spite of the History Teachers who'd drone on in a monotone about the history of Europe since the fall of Rome, I'm a nut for history. I happened on a Renaissance Fair once upon a time, and got connections to historical societies because of them. It's a blast putting on strange, exotic costumes and joining the festivals and learning about far off lands and eras like Rome, Persia, and China... It's fun to dance in the circles and pick up Native words here in America, listen to the drums and the stories... It's a blast learning about folklore from everywhere in the world and figuring out things about different cultures because of the legends they passed down. I picked up more about short-cuts in math because of painting and D&D than I did in algebra or geometry courses. I got extra credit (talk about lowered expectations) from my Geometry Teacher in High School by bringing my Dice into class... He was amazed to find D20's, D30's, and even a D100 (which rolled more like a damn golf-ball than a die)... BUT I can do most of my own math in my head, in spite of a guy who'd obviously lost his faith in ever finding a student remotely interested in even passing the class. There were "participation grade" classes like Wood-shop, and Auto-tech'... Yeah, there was some decent information, but it was mostly more than twenty years old, and the primary focus outside of that was checking fluids and changing spark plugs, unless you found your own projects, which could get you higher bonuses and grades... Wood shop wasn't much different. You got a quick safety course, and a general overview of the books about how specific tools were intended to be used, and then either show up and do stuff or don't... We made a lot of things out of scrap-wood, so it wouldn't cost anything, and the teacher otherwise turned us loose. SO I took interest in joinery, and I've since been able to get 2000 bucks out of a sofa with steam-bent wood in the frame to shape it outside of the "normal" shape of a couch. I've earned real money for framing houses and repairing rooftops. Other students in that class carried home A's and B's for showing up, but they wouldn't know a cross-cut from a rip-cut. I know, there are teachers who are appalling in their awfulness, but some of the time, you've got to go after the knowledge for yourself. Remember, whenever you invest in knowledge or skills, you invest in a power that YOU will have and that NOBODY can ever take away from you. You'll get out of it, whatever you put in. ;o)

It wasn't really the teachers fault, but in elementary school i loved reading but when i got to middle i was forced to read books that i didn't like and do tons of book reports on them, i got super stressed because of it and i guess i associated that stress with reading, so i just didn't. And i still don't like to read to this day, and it sucks.

@@Kaytubeow157rfbrtmvs omg, same thing happened to me. Luckily, I’m back to being an avid reader. I’d recommend not focusing on reading levels-if a book is below your level, it’s okay to read it if it’s still fun. Some good books I’d recommend for ya would be the whole Percy Jackson series. And if you’re looking for something heavier and more sad, the book Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson is an eternal favorite of mine.

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

@@tofuyuhiko5632 I just keep it laid back and I take it at my own pace... I started my interest in folklore mostly out of D&D, always looking for where the monsters came from or what I could use for new ones... BUT I figured a lot of things in the archaeological records made better sense when you had some context to go with them, like the whole Roman/Greek myths, the way it reads like the worst "high school soap opera" ever is a pretty good reference for how they viewed romance versus lust and nobility versus pettiness. The Norse had a big thing for Ragnarok and the belief that a peaceful death in the quiet was a ticket to Hel... and that it was icy... not fiery... Keen insight in how they saw the world around them. I'm still not sure what the hell to make of Baba Yaga in the Czeck, Russian, and Romanian territory... BUT I'm not all-knowing yet, so hopefully there's still time. Among my favorites out of Japan was the "Shirime" (I think)... It (like quite a few) of their "demons" (not the best word, but close in translation) it preys upon your humiliation... I'd end up laughing hysterically if it was a real thing, though... BUT there's an insight to the inherent need to belong and show class at all times. Yeah, I like to hope I'm pretty cool. I don't need to be too cool, though. Pissing ice-cubes is rough on the old plumbing! ;o)

Your's points are also correct but I can relate with the fourth point the most. It happened with my bestie when we were in different sections and the teacher doesn't take any action. But it was not pure bullying but akind of bullying.

[@Psych2go]

How do you think we can improve these issues?

[@Schornforce]

Bullying can be very difficult to deal with. Kids aren't stupid and do their best to either shift blame, hide it, and/or bully even harder in retaliation. Teachers should definitely do what they can, but it's difficult if administration and/or parents don't back them up. When I taught, I couldn't keep kids after school, couldn't really punish them, and they didn't care if I wrote them up or called their parents. Teachers can't force students to stay separated or leave others alone, at least not physically. They aren't even supposed to break up physical fights. It depends on the situation, but unless things change, there really isn't a simple solution, but I'd propose teaching children how to overcome being bullied and teaching empathy, emotional control, and problem solving early on in schools and trying to foster that throughout.

[@Schornforce]

@Troy Witherman True. I think another aspect to be considered is teachers who are already in place. Maybe there should be testing and retesting teachers on things like classroom management and practices. I think to renew certification, teachers are only tested now and then on their content area, not on the more important stuff like dealing with a variety of people fairly on a daily basis or maintaining attention and so forth. Most schools have regular training, but not all and even then, there's not always evaluation on that training.

I am very introverted and shy. So, her sarcastic voice that indirectly state that I was a very bad student made me scared to say anything more. I just hung my head low. The next day, she called me privately to her office and said that she indeed misplaced my homework. The thing is she didn't even try to clear my name after she humiliated me in front of the whole class. Everyone started distancing themselves even more when I was already considered as the loner and weird kid in school.

I tried to give her chances, tried to believe she could be nice, but she yelled at me for not finishing my work and acted as if she had forgotten all about the 504 plan I have(basically I’m am legally obligated to be given extra time due a reason that varies by person of either mental issues, injury. etc.) that I suffered much to get her to understand. She has been working at my school for generations probably at this so she’s a little more “old school” (as some would say) and teaches her way and her way only, I have OCD(obsessive compulsive disorder) and depression so this has been *anything but* easy for me, I’m the type of person who also doesn’t mind others talk down on me as much as they want *ESPECIALLY* adults, but she has done it so *many* times to an extreme extent to where I could hardly take it anymore and now just try to put up with her because my parents won’t allow me to change classes because I’m in honors and she is the _only_ honors. I don’t really deserve any pity but everyone else in the class does because she’s like this to everyone, and the worst part is is that we have her for 3 years straight. She doesn’t necessarily have “favorites” but she yells at some more than others. Anyways, at this rate I could make a whole book about all she does so I’ll stop it here now, thank you so so much for reading all of this it is more than appreciated, this was kinda just me ranting so thanks for taking some time to see me basically rant about an old lady and have a great day/night! :)

you forgot one. teachers that single out students to humiliate them. because of dysgraphia i always struggled with writing, especially spelling, handwriting, and grammar, but never had a problem reading. i wasnt diagnosed till i got my GED after i dropped out of school. IN jr high and highschool i finished my literature work and would read in class. My reading comprehension is higher than my ability to write. My teachers would use me as an example, point out i was "too dumb to read the book i was reading" in front of the whole class. if i asked questions, they acted like they were stupid questions that i was just too dumb to know, and told me to" just go ask your classmate X, they will "dumb it down" for you. everyone else understood , but i didnt. if i asked too many questions or struggled to much, rather than helping me , they would make off hand comments like maybe i should be sent back a couple grades, obviously i wasnt AbLE to learn in their class, in front of the whole class. It made me hate school, it made me hate teachers, it made me feel like i was just too dumb to bother learning. so i dropped out. BUT fortunately when i did get my GED , i got a GREAT teacher, who realized i wasnt dumb, buut had an easily overcome learning disability. She got me into computers to type out my work when i had to do essays. It made all the difference for all of my work. Typing is far less of a struggle for me than writing is. All it takes is a good teacher sometimes to rekindle a love of learning and expressing ones self.

Me too! I might have Adhd and Autism. I need to get tested. I have Anxiety Disorders and Sensory Processing Disorder. Most of my school is lgbt+, neurodivergent, or has a mental health disorder. I fit all three of those categories. I go to a conservative christian school (and I'm not conservative at all). Well, if you aren't any of those things or appear to not be any of those things, the teacher will favor you. I get really good grades, but because of all those things, my teacher does nothing but bullies me. I am actually traumatized from some of the things she has said to me. I don't have nice handwriting, I can't make eye contact, I have panic attacks, I dissociate, I have sensory overloads, I am nonbinary, I am (demi)panromantic, I am asexual, I can't focus on my schoolwork, I take medicine for anxiety, I use noise cancelling headphones in class, I have trouble with volume control, I am really bad with social stuff, I don't understand jokes, I can't read faces, etc. I'm everything she lectures us not to not be. She hates me, and she still doesn't know anything about me. I hate it here. Everything breath I take, she's watching me and judging me. I get really good grades. I try to be nice to people. I attempt to speak in class (but like this comment said, everybody looks at me like I'm an idiot even though I give the correct answers so it's a very rare thing), I make an attempt to be someone I'm not because this teacher just has to be a Karen. Even down to the " All natural is the only good thing, I take 300 types of vitamins in a day" stuff. She picks on people. One time she even accused someone of murder who didn't even go to the school. There was a former student years ago that committed suicide. However, she didn't want to believe that because "she was too happy to kill herself and she had plans for the next day". So what did my teacher do? For decades she decided to tell students that the BOYFRIEND, who she didn't even KNOW, that had NO REASON to be a suspect, murdered her. She literally told us all that the report was wrong because one of her students wouldn't kill herself. She hates anyone with suicidal thoughts as well, something I used to deal with. She also says crazy things like "don't have anxiety, it's not that hard" and "my parents were bad, so your problems are unimportant" and "just don't be depressed :)", "It's not that hard to focus", "It's not that loud in here, you are lying." Futhermore, she tells students to blame themselves for things that happened to them and never talk to their parents or anyone. Except her precious angel children with anger issues that are bullies that would definitely never do anything wrong. And she picks on kids with bad financial situations and adopted kids and bad home lives as well (so more stuff that is me). She especially loves to pick on kids with nobody to emotionally support them or believe anything they say, and that especially stinks because 80% of this school are "troubled kids". She has also bullied me countless times while in the middle of a panic attack, especially when I couldn't talk and make eye contact. She's made quite a few weird slightly threatening remarks like "I'm going to force a freshly pencil in your mouth because science says it'll make you smile" and "You have chicken arms and you are really skinny. If you don't gain weight, I'll force feed you vending machine snacks." And she's the type of Karen who will put on a fake af smile and overly sweet tone and act all innocent. She's also said some pretty rude things about my autistic brother and I honestly feel like punching her in the face every time I remember that. She speaks rudely about students behind their backs. She doesn't even teach you anything, she expects you to know it, while tellling everyone that she herself doesn't know the materials and has no education so they will have to teach themselves. She's never helpful, but she forces you to do things her way, which is usually wrong, and the school literally advertises that you can "work at your own pace" and have your own schedule, but you can't, or at least me and my friends can't. And one time she took me to the bathroom mid panic attack that she caused, and kept telling me I was ugly when I was upset and to look at my igly fave in the mirror and that everybody was right to bully me because I'm annoying them.

Telling Signs Your Child Has a Bad Teacher 👍 Your child is suddenly disinterested in school Your child suffers a staggering drop in self-confidence.

Aww im sorry:(. I had a math quiz like a year ago in 9th grade right? Well, I didnt study the night before that and I was sick and didn't go to school so I didn't know or have any idea that it even existed..when I came back the day of the test, she handed them out and I was really nervous. There was about 32 questions about multiplying dividing, fractions, geometry and algebra. I was like "okay this should be simple? I learned some of these." So as I was done with my test I handed it to my teacher and she literally ignored me when she SAW me walking up to her so I had to talk a bit louder saying "Hello? I'm finished!!." She looked up at me from her computer and says "don't yell at me." And grabbed my test from me really quickly and almost tore half of it. She looked through it and told me to "go back to your seat and just sIt tHeRE" (the other students got to move on to the next thing or be on their phones while I didnt) I was fine with that since I didn't feel good and I was like okay, better for me LMAO. soo everyone is done and she calls me to her table where she talks with the students ya know helping them prepare, group works etc etc. She calls me to her table and says "redo this whole test, UNACCEPTABLE VICTORIA" and I was like "what did I do" she literally gets in my face yelling at me saying "dO iT oR iLL MakE yOU" I was so embarrassed that I had to excuse myself to literally go CRY. It was 10:55 and it was the time for our next class. She took the paper from me hard and said "You guys im so proud of yall! Only ONE person failed the test. Yall where amazing!! Unlike someone." I was walking with my best friends and they're like "I'm sorry about her" and everyone at lunch just stared at me but my friends.

[@lucidrii1490]

My Art Teacher was okay, but if I can say for myself, I think I have 2 best teachers. One teacher is teaching in biology she's not the sweetest person, but I'm surprised to know that she knows when to settle down and talk normally and when to tone her voice up, so she's not so patient, but also not grumpy. She also makes sure that we all understand the material, not just memorizing it. Assignments from her is usually analysis-type, so even if we don't memorize as long as we're able to problem solve and connect the facts, we still can pass. She also often sums up what we've learned in the end of the class, and give us some moral advices. These makes her such a memorable teacher for me. Another one is my literature teacher. She's more on the 'outgoing' side. She'll sometimes ask if we're having too much assignments, and if we do she'll let us take a bit of a break from it. Plus her assignments are usually on the 'do, not write' kinda thing. So it's not a bunch of questions dumped on a piece of paper, it's more kinesthetic. But also quite effective! She sometimes plays music from our choice when in online school, and back then when we're still face-to-face learning, we often work on groups. Also learning in a fun way like games, or learning through a song. I really can't forget that time our class sang together in her class, that was like one of the best moments of school, ever. And sorry for this huge wall of text, not sure if anyone is willing to read this 😅

As a student, I understand that grading can take a slow process, especially for classes that have essays like English.

One time, he had to read about 4000 words from each student and it was understandable why it took so long, considering he also taught other classes.

[@timesnewlogan2032]

Looking back, a lot of my teachers yelled at us or went on rants about how awful we were, or how awful American students are in general, and how much better students are in China, and how dumb teenagers are, etc. I still remember the first time a teacher ever flew off the handle. The class was being a bit rowdy, so she yelled at the top of her lungs at all of us, even the select few who were being good, while slamming the paddle on the desk (It was 1999/2000). We were preschoolers, four to five years old.

I told the teacher, but she just said, "Respect her space." And then told me to forgive him.

Figure it out on your own.” I struggled with coding. He was so condescending. I actually remember waking up in the middle of the night because of a panic attack. I also remember at one point I had disassociated and came back with a knife in my hand with the blade near my wrist. I didn’t cut. Thank goodness. But after that I just felt so drained that I didn’t try anymore. It was the only class I ever failed completely.

[@rubyhearts9966]

@@shadowking278 No. YOU did not fail. It's that teacher that failed at teaching. He failed to grow ALL of his student's minds and that's sad to hear that it affected you so deeply. I'm going to tell you right now that you are not a failure. You just had a rotten teacher. I wish you never experienced something so detrimental to your mental health. I don't know if this mean anything coming from a stranger off the internet, but it's not too late. Forget that teacher and believe in yourself. If you truly want to pursue robotics, go find a better teacher. Or try looking it up yourself and study on your own terms. However, if robotics is no longer your thing, find your new calling. Ask yourself "Where do I feel comfortable? What makes me tick? And how can I make that my life's dream?" I know you'll success. I bet on that!

My French teacher would belittle and call people out in the middle of class when confronting us about something. She thought she had it all figured out. Once I was called out for sending an email when I was supposed to be studying during class, meanwhile there were others who were literally playing video games and watching YT. She rushed through class and read the class material, not bothering to explain in detail. She would come late and criticized some of my classmates’ fashion decisions.

Much like this series, this list is an oversimplification. Like leadership styles, there a vast number of teaching styles that prepare students for the different types of people they will meet in life. Furthermore, perception is often confused with reality. That perceived favored student might just be a student that needs more help. That lackadaisical grading policy could be an adaptation to dealing with varying demands placed on students. Like life, many things are relative, but all are ultimately teachable moments,

So true. A lot of teenagers are ina very delicate stage of their life and are constantly falling into victim mentality.

They don't pass/fail at our school; we simply help them reach their language goals. I hope this all made sense.

*Warning: Long comment (story) incoming* When I was quite young, I had a teacher. Let's just say they had favourites, and I was certainly not one of them. Whenever people had their hands up, they would go through everyone and then once they got to me they just carried on with the lesson like I didn't have my hand up. Clearing stuff up, to this day I am still 99% sure I never did anything to them. Sadly, I had them for a second year. At the beginning they put all my friends toghether, and me on the opposite side of the room. I asked to move multiple times and they just said "I'll think about it." I was very happy less than half way through the year when they said they were going move some students around, and I was one of them. Yeah, so they didn't move me to a better place. This teacher was well aware I was being bullied (along with my 2 closests friends). They put my 2 closests friends on the other side of the room, and moved the bully next to me. Thanks. Luckily during the first week they had a 'tantrum' and moved next to their friend. However they moved one of the other bullies next to me. One of my other friends was sitting at the back with a spare seat next to them, so after being bullied for a couple months we decided to try and move me next to her. For the next 3 months every other lesson we would ask her at the end, and at the beginning of the last week she moved me. Like I said, I was quite young and being put next to bullies and being ignored, while my other friends got to sit toghether, from doing nothing really hurt me and sometimes I'm scared to talk to teachers today just incase I say something 'wrong' without realising. It's never happened apart from that year, and even then my other teachers were fine with me, so I'm pretty sure it was the teacher not me.

[@lunanote-cassettemeower]

I was physically and mentally abused by teachers in the past, and it got so bad that I was afraid to even step foot inside of any school at all. I’d get chronic nightmares and my anxiety kept on getting worse and worse. They did things like put me in a “quiet room” for misbehaving which was pretty much just a prison without anything to help us “calm down” but we weren’t allowed to leave until we “calmed down”. I’d get in trouble for crying when something was really difficult or stressing me out. There were also times that the teachers were hurting me so I had no choice but to attack them but in the end I was the one who got in trouble despite the teachers being the one who caused it. If someone is hurting you, isn’t it natural for you to try and get out of that situation? There were times that the teachers would never leave me alone and I couldn’t even go to the bathroom without being followed and there were times I wasn’t even allowed to go to the bathroom until I was “calm”, but how am I supposed to be “calm” if I feel like I could pee at any moment? Then I’d get in trouble for peeing on the floor, but that was caused by the teachers not helping me. There were also times that they invaded my personal space to take things from me. I was just playing with a toy I had brought in but they ran right towards me and ripped it from my hands even though I wasn’t doing anything wrong. I was reading a book and it was about time to do something else, but I wanted to finish my page, but apparently I didn’t ask nicely enough to continue reading so they decided to rip the book from my hands without prior warning, the worst part is this was a book that I owned and had brought in myself and it was possible that they could have ruined a book that I had just gotten recently. All of these traumatic events were caused just because I had autism and I was forced into autism programs. So many people with autism are physically and mentally abused, yet their real problems are treated as a punchline and there’s so many insensitive autism memes out there which just make problems worse. Things NEED to change so that what happened to me doesn’t happen to anyone else. I’m actually in tears as I’m writing this. So many people have gotten mad at me for saying “autism lives matter” stuff, yet they don’t understand the fact that they’ve been physically and mentally abused in so many ways. Please, this stuff needs to stop. Nobody should deal with this stuff at all.

There are some teachers who simply lack motivation. They spend the minimum amount of time necessary to do their job never arriving early or staying late. They do not challenge their students, ​are often behind on grading, show videos often, and give “free” days on a regular basis

[@eliza.the.earthling]

As a teacher, I don’t think having a work-life balance means you lack motivation. Teachers work long hours outside of class time and it can be a heavy struggle to strike a balance between what needs to be done and within what time constraints. As a teacher who has worked myself to the bone in previous jobs with little support, I don’t think we should shame teachers for not putting in enough time, because I can tell you, the things that need to be done are endless but we still need to prioritise so we have a life. However, teachers should strive to inspire and care for all their students, expose them to challenges and ignite their passion for learning. It makes me incredibly sad to read the comments of people who have had poor experiences with their teachers when so many other teachers give so much of their time, energy and money into caring for their students. Clearly there are not enough of them yet.

[@Tabuleiro.]

There are bad teachers, but there's a reason for them to be so common. Their salaries are often low, the schools don't give them support, society don't value them, their families may not support them for having a "bad" job. It's all screwed in a vicious cycle.

[@gunstrokethecybertronian8659]

@@eliza.the.earthling That's how I feel with my math professor as of late. I respect her as any teacher, but unfortunately how she teaches statistics is ineffective. Now first off most of my students go through Zoom, at around the current pandemic, I knew that when the schools closed learning things online would be impactful. My opinion is subjective, but sadly she never seems to challenge me, nor any other students at least not that I am aware of. All she does through the sessions is talk throughout the lecture, but with no way for students to interact or practice the methods. Think of it this way, the teacher lectures with her lessons from the notebook online, but never seems to find a way to get students involved other than asking if anyone has questions. Secondly during the lecture I don't know if she has found a way of encouraging students to maintain focus during the lesson. Because through the lecture she never seemed to find a way to inspire us to work, not even find a way to enjoy learning her class once, which sadly made me miserable and I can't say the same for the other students but maybe it is relatable. Lastly even after the lecture it feels like I have to be back at square one in starting the lesson all over again through videos but it's tricky when caused from many factors, whether your room is the only place to work, the distractions around your room, or caused by others unintentionally, lacking space to have a desk, etc. I never thought I'd be willing to fail a class. It's why I try the online counseling for choosing my classes wisely with informed decisions. But I never caught on my math professor's teaching methods until it was too late.

I should like to add one: Your teacher is an ideologue. Your teacher teaches the subject but if you vary from the prevailing view, procedure, theory, etc., te attacks you. You may have another perspective, a better explanation of the phenomenon, or a better solution to the problem at hand (or just a different one). But if the teacher attacks you without explaining what’s wrong with your idea, te is an ideologue. Conformity to the prevailing way is paramount to that teacher. How that harms you is that it discourages free inquiry and thought. If you adopt the teacher’s ideology, you won’t be able to think for yourself when the situation arises and the new circumstances demonstrate the old way doesn’t apply to the new circumstances.

yes i agree so much with this. i already struggle so much with even basic math, i dont know i only know how to do plus minus and kinda do some times stuff. i didnt know how to say like different time stuff like quarter past 2 before i was literally 14 years old. i literally almost only know 4th grade math because the teachers i had was so bad and my 5-7th grade teacher didnt help at all. she put me on the front row and said that would work, when it didnt it just made me feel nervous so it definetly didnt help. and usually on tests i think of ideas on how to solve stuff inside my head but i suck at writing how i find the answer down so i usually just write the way i thought i did it down. but no its wrong. because according to the teachers the way i do stuff is wrong even though i still write down how i found the answer. yes its not as complicated as it could be but i havent almost learned any math since fucking 4th grade or something?? isnt writing the way i found the answer good enough when i already suck at math?? AND i also have adhd so its even worse for me to remember stuff AND my brain work differently than normal people and they still expect me to think the same way. its just extremly dumb and closeminded of them.
