yeah, he's arrogant cunt aye did he get bullied or something there? he still lives in that area. Do you have any shit on him?
. Still having trouble remembering the teachers, the majority of them would have left your school in 2009 & 2010.
He was just a dickhead.
He was a mega-douche.
Not many people liked him, and then ones that did left in year 10 because they were fuckwits.

FUCKING TELL ME CUNT! :D

j_urhig, you're extremely lucky to never have had a bad teacher. Through HS, I've prob had 3 bad teachers. Thankfully don't have them now :D, got them out of the way in jnr school.

Also to j_urhig (I think?), I feel sorry for young, hot teachers. One teacher at my school is constantly harassed by crazy jnrs (particularly Yr 9and 10s).

I wish I went to a public, co-educational high school. I go to a private all girls school. Lame.

Bad teachers
Maths - 1st 3 weeks of year 7.
Science - Half of year 8 as my actual teacher was preggerz.
Physics - Prelim
Bad teacher for English - years 8, half of 11 and all of 12.
Religion - Shit subject, in jr years I didn't care. Teacher now is fine.
History - Year 8 & 9.
Geography - Year 8 & 9.
Music - part of year 7 and 8. 9 & 10
Computers in year 7
Italian - Term 3 year 8.
There's probably a couple more I blocked out of my memory.

Trouble with high schools is that they're full of people for whom teaching was 'Plan B'.

Yes, some high school teachers always wanted to be high school teachers and are good at what they do.

Some people didn't plan on being high school teachers but are still good at what they do.

A fair chunk of high school teachers wanted to be writers or poets or chemists or actors or did a silly degree like communications, but realised that there's no money in chasing your dream so they did a Dip Ed and BOOM. High school teacher.

Eesh Riproot, I feel for you.

I kinda didn't count PE teachers because I hate that subject too much to get along with any of the teachers. I also didn't count any teachers I've had when my other teachers have been away (cause most subs suck). But my three bad fulltime teachers? Had all two of them for two years >.<

I also didn't count teachers I may not get along with but were competent enough teachers.

Chemistry teacher sucks.
Had a sub for the last three weeks, she was really awesomeee

As for English teachers, none of my English teachers ever liked me,
mainly coz I gave them a lot of shit.
My ESL teacher atm loooves me coz she thinks i'm good etc.
but I'm the biggest bitch to them.
They give me essays with 20/20 and I still complain coz they never give any feedback (positive/negative)
I know I will be 1st in the school but to ace it in NSW, they need to help me.
I always make my OWN notes in ESL. These teachers are really pathetic.
Dumbest dumbest dumbest english teachers ever.

Oh yeah PE!
I've had one bad one in year 9. Mostly because he hated me... but also because he didn't care enough to teach.

I go to a rural public school , Population 100 ? on a good day when everyone comes , I think the quality of teaching at my school is actually really good. The teachers that have taught me have taught me right through high school so they know my limits and my problem areas (as well as everyone else's). Some of them live and hour and a half away bt they are all willing to stay behind for after school tutoring to those students who want to be tutored. My Mathematics teacher is actually the schools Deputy Principle and she still finds time to teach us after school. All of my teachers are pretty old so they have had a lot of experience over the years and many of them grew up where I live now. I'm ranked first in all my subjects but there is only myself in Chemistry and PDHPE , two students in Mathematics and 5 in Biology and 3 in Adv English so I dnt have much competition.

I go to a private school, although the teaching standards do vary from faculties and sometimes within the departments themselves, I've noticed a plethora of teaching staff at my school do follow strict syllabus guidelines set out by the BoS and they do make their strongest endeavours to ensure each and every student lands their outmost potential.

On the other hand however, some students have commented on teachers and their lack of enthusiasm in their teaching, especially in the maths and science faculties, however English and the social sciences have received the most praise amongst the student community.

That's great though, your teachers sound really dedicated!

There's 100 in my school+ another 1000!

I want your teachers!
Like NONE of my teachers would stay back... and one of them lives on school property...
A few English teachers are holding one day seminars to cover the course this holidays... My teacher isn't :/
So I'm smuggling into a good teacher's one.

There's 100 in my school+ another 1000!
Hahaha, me too.

All I want is a teacher that is enthusiastic and hardworking. If I had that in all of my classes then all of the students will follow through too.

Some of my teachers have said "I'm not going to keep spoon-feeding you." It's always the teachers that NEVER spoon-feed you because they have no fucking idea that say this. Anyone else get this?
