Pretty much all of my teachers have been great. There's only been one teacher who may have been a little bit mean. She was an older woman and I think the year that I had her was the last year that she was teaching before she retired. She was an elementary school teacher and she would just be a little too harsh to us students. I remember one time a kid had Pokemon cards, which she had banned in the classroom, and she took them out of his hands, ripped them up, and threw them out, leaving the kid crying.
I can understand a rule against having the cards. I can understand taking the cards and confiscating them (perhaps holding on to them until the child's parent comes in to talk about it). But actually destroying the cards was quite excessive. I mean, many school classrooms have a "no cell phones" policy. Does this mean if a child does have a phone in the room that the teacher can take the phone, throw it on the ground, and stomp on it repeatedly until it's rendered complete junk?
Anyway, most of my teachers have been pretty good, except for two (both at our local Math and Science Center for advanced students, oddly enough). One, the biology teacher, had a Paws with a Cause dog she was training (Paws with a Cause is a group that trains service dogs). The dog was still a puppy, but being a golden retriever, was also rather large. For some reason, the dog took a liking to me (maybe he smelled my dogs?) and would often come back to where I was sitting to either chew on my shoelaces (annoying) or start gnawing on my hand (painful). When I would pull my hand or shoelace away from the dog and try to shoo it away or calm it down, the teacher would yell at me, "Stop playing with the dog!"
The other teacher taught a class on the basics of using computers and apparently hated children. One day, one of the other students was joking around in a way that irritated the teacher, who snapped, "Maybe if I were to dangle you out the window a bit that would straighten you out!" (Our classroom was on the fourth floor.) The student replied, "Actually, sir, that would be illegal," to which the teacher responded, "It would also be illegal for me to bring in my shotgun and silence the lot of you, but I wouldn't hesitate to do it!"

I had a fat chunky math teacher that was super smug. She was unmarried and wasn't getting any younger so she took it out on us kids. Her extra weight didn't really help her out so she needed an assistant to do everything for her.
Every teacher I had was computer illiterate, and ended up screwing up people's grades because of it. The worst part was that they thought they actually weren't PC illiterate at all. If you ever end up saying "I'm pretty good with the computer." at any point in your life, then you just aren't.
bump btw.

Yeah, that guy in the avatar is me. I'm *that* strange. It happens. Sometimes people act like that. Just go with it. I can offer help with suggestions even before you post them - NOT make your suggestions - but help you with them.
I once had a substitute teacher when somebody took my pencil and said I stole it, and the teacher believe him. I ended up getting a referral later in the day.
My teacher I think in grade 3 was psychopathic, sort of. The only two things I remember was when she said the sun rotated around the earth and when I tried to correct her, she screamed at me, saying that since SHE was the adult, SHE was right, and that I'm just a useless little kid! #HateHer
The second time was when my friends little brothers friend was in her class and it was time to clean out the desks. She must've been in a bad mood, because she picked up the desk, dumped everything out of it on the kids head, and threw the desk. Some other kid got crushed by it. The teacher got sued and yet somehow she still teaches! Apparently that kid broke his arm too.

Dang, that's so cruel I almost think you're lying.
My Math AIS teacher makes us work from bell to bell, and if you don't do what he says you have after school or are written up. Hes so mean and he yells everyday at students who don't deserve it.
Woah! A teacher punishing you for not doing basic things you should do? Wow!
I thought alts were only banned if they were used for purposes of ban evasion.
Anyways, I've liked most of my teachers. I, however, have had some bad ones. In first grade, I had a teacher who hated me and a few other kids and absolutely adored every other kid. She had a card system (green meant you're perfect/one of her favorites, yellow meant you had been okay, and red meant you were bad and broke too many rules/she hated you). If you had a red card, you couldn't do anything fun on Friday. You can probably guess where this is going. I almost never got to do anything fun. One thing I do remember is there was a girl who put glue on my chair, and I got in trouble. On St. Patrick's Day, the teacher pulled her card (which was red) back to green saying a leprechaun did it. I, being the "smart" kid I was snuck over and did the same thing. I would've gotten away with it if I didn't have a big mouth and told her. I got in trouble for that, but it was worth it. That teacher was so bad that my mom pulled me out halfway and homeschooled me for a few grades. There's also another story involving her and one of the special ed teachers and how they spread a lie around the entire school about me, so if you want to hear that, I'll be glad to tell you.
I liked most of my teachers up until 7th grade (not going to get into the story about elementary school and how much trouble I had with the counselor/7th grade teachers). All I'll say about 7th grade is I had problems both at home and school, and some of the teachers were so incompetent and wouldn't do what they were supposed to. Second half of 7th grade (after I moved schools yet again) was cool, and so was 8th grade. 9th grade I liked most of my teachers, except for one. She's part of the reason I switched schools. She was my German teacher, and sometimes I wonder how she got away with stuff. She would yell really loud, and once fed a kid pencil shavings. I had also heard from someone else that she threw a book at someone. I could tell she didn't like me, but it didn't get really bad until one day towards the end of school. Just for clarification, I am a girl. Had to do some stuff in the bathroom, and the counselor said I could use one of the staff bathrooms for about 15 minutes. Only catch was I had to tell the teacher. Not too bad, right? Well, she thought it would be a wonderful idea to yell at me in front of the entire classroom. She decided the best action would be to kick me out of the classroom. I just grabbed my stuff and ran out crying.
My (old) History/Science teacher in 8th Grade, Mr. Morehouse. He was a bit of a character. Besides being blind in one eye, he pretty much exactly fit the stereotype of the boring middle school teacher. He wore glasses, was going bald, was a hunchback, and had this really slow and boring way of talking. And he stopped the class every time someone was off task. And I had him 2 periods in a row (1st and 2nd). Thankfully I got moved out of his class during the ~3rd week of school.

Oh my chemistry teacher I got this year, he is the embodiement of Satan.
He did a test in the start of the year to find out what we knew. Sadly the test had formulas that weren't even planned for our current grade, and gave us not a single chance to consult anything.Of course we all failed and then he just started laughing at us, mocking us and calling us "usless pieces of crap that should die" After that he shamelessly insulted our parents to which all of us backfired at him screaming insults so loudly that several other teachers had to come and calm us down. We then left school and didn't come back until tomorow. Since we also had chemistry the next day when we tried walking into the classroom the teacher just laughed, gave us 3 F's (In my school 3 F's=instant fail) and locked the door leaving us in the hallway.
Of course, all of us got enraged and never attended a single class again, until the headmaster allowed us to switch teachers.

Hello
I'm such a trusting person, I almost think it's the truth.
All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost
From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king
What? Did you call her mum, it's happened to all of us before.
