Wow. He was mean. I don't think I've ever laughed at one of my students in front of them.
Are you a teacher? That's exciting! What do you teach?
When I'm a teacher I fully intend to be one of those cool buddy-buddy teachers that everyone loves just so I can laugh at them and no one will get mad.
I'm a math graduate student, so some semesters I have to TA for courses to get supported. This semester I'm TAing for precalculus. In the past I've TA'd for first semester calculus and multivariable calculus. I think I liked TAing for multivariable calculus the most, but only since I didn't have to deal with many freshmen. No offense meant, but freshmen can be pains to teach.
Oh my..are you a math genius? I avoid precalc like the plague. I was in it for 3 days senior year before I dropped it, too much thinking involved. I can do math but it requires a lot of time and thinking for me.
i HATE math... i'm not even taking a math this year cuz i'm SO bad at it
I tried to not take one but they made me take stupid prepare-for-college math. It was such a joke! We learned how to graph lines (something I could do since 7th grade) and ate lots of candy..and colored in those things where the same colors can't touch each other.
was it called like "advance senior math" or sumthing? cuz sum of my friends got stuck in that cuz they didn't wanna take calc... i just avoided it altogether haha
Yeah, something like that! It's initials were CMT..OH! College Math Topics. Yeah..it was pretty freakin' great, all the people in there were calc dropouts. Our teacher always fed us food to help us learn like learning some type of division we had to divide muffins between three people equally. And when doing circuits we watched Gone In 60 Seconds for some reason.
People have said that to me, but I dislike being categorized that way. I just really love math, and think it can be really fun if you get into it.
IT GETS WORSE! today in class he spent 5 minutes going over style tags and how they belong in the head not the body cuz "obviously some people in here weren't paying attention when I went over it the first time" !!! i told him that he was mean and was not my favorite person.... and hes all "you all have my screen name and you can always contact me if you need help or don't understand something, but if you are making a stupid mistake, be prepared to feel stupid when I correct you... or laugh at you in Melodys case" yea.. when i'm a teacher, i'm gonna be NICE!
haha, he sounds like a pretty cool guy. how old is he?
um.. like 25.. give or take a year or 2. Hes young and very not teachish... he HATES kids, hes one of those teachers who complains about students ALL day. Also, he has frosted tips on his hair like hes trying to be 14.... but hes a funny guy sometimes...
I hate teachers who don't like kids. What the heck are you teaching High School for then!? Young teachers can be cool most of the time but they don't have the experience to..I donno be better then just that cool young teacher.
