Many years ago, I was enrolled at a JC in San Diego taking philosophy classes. I already had a BS degree, but I was considering doing a MA in Phil and wanted to take some prep courses. My Symbolic Logic instructor was like this guy. He spent 90% of the class time telling us life stories and talking about whatever book he happened to be reading. I learned more about Freud than logic. The rest of the class loved it cuz they barely had to do any work. I was really annoyed cuz I actually wanted to learn the subject. I think he was close to retirement and just didn't give a crap. He once told me that he thought logic was largely a waste of time as he was more into literary philosophy. It was also upsetting because he clearly had a good grasp of the subject, but just didn't care to share it with us. He told us a story about a former student of his who applied to law school but failed to qualify due to her lack of understanding of logic. She came back to him to explain certain things properly. Fortunately as far as instructors and professors go, this guy was the exception, not the rule.
I had a geography teacher who was a bit of a volatile personality. We knew which other teachers she disliked, because she'd gossip about them to the class. She referred to the principal as "himself in the office". And one day she had an argument with the principal and stormed out, never to be seen again. The school had to scramble for replacements.
I had a similar experience in High School. High School where I live works a little bit different, being only 3 years long. In the second year, our Chemistry class teacher had to leave the city and the school got a replacement teacher from another close by city's High School. The only problem is that we learned more about her and her son adventures than about Chemistry xD I got to the point where we "joked" (not so much) asking her if the exams would be about her son's stories or about Chemistry lol Turned out that she made the tests super easy and everyone "passed". Next year, however, the last year of High School for us, she had to go away as well and got replaced, and guess what? ALL OF US, literally, failed Chemistry with this new teacher 🤡 We were so lost that we couldn't catch up. That was frustrating but in the end we didn't take it out on her because she was a good person, really funny and always with a smile on her face. She may have failed us with actual class content, but she sure put a lot of smiles on our faces throughout the year. Oh, and about your speech skills, you're doing amazing! Keep it up! 💪
We had an English teacher who was annoyed by sneezing....so students would fake sneeze and he would get angry abd try to find who did it....entire period would end like this....
Mr.A gets an F. Not accredited in Secondary Math or probably education. Probably no state license to teach public school. Guess it's very difficult to get teachers now. First teacher jumped the gun. He needed counseling ♥️
Awesome 💯 Happy Wednesday from Palm Beach Florida
