I’ve been with academics since what 4 years old or 2 years old? I forgot when and I forgot where but the important thing is what and how. What—- what did I learn? and How—- how did I learn? You see these are two questions one student should always ask himself after every learning point. In my seventeen years of being a student, I’ve encountered a lot of teaching styles and methods. Teachers who seem to talk about random-outside-of-the-course topics, teachers who reprimand you without a reasonb (i know it doesn’t make sense, but believe me they exist.), and teacher who during your first impression seem to be nice and approachable only to surprise you with terror on the second meeting (whattup with quizzes on the second mtg without even any discussions yet). These are the kind of teachers who you’d rather prefer to sleep on class than listen, and believe me, some do it.
Well, I was lucky to have met good teachers, some giving difficult exams, some hard to impress, and some are grade misers (or whatever the term is), and I’ve met teachers too who enjoy humiliation from learning. That’s quite a very pleasant experience and indeed it was. I experienced that a while ago and the thought of getting humiliated (at least for me, and, cmon we always have this, my pride) just sank it now. Just now, when I began to realize how iffy my teacher and her methods are.
You see I have gone through a lot of teachers already from grade school to college, and this teacher is different, way different, she’s strong and brave, smart and brilliant, but there’s one thing wrong with her— and that’s her attitude. And I have to start complaining about this because for one I can’t live with it anymore and second she’s just sooooo annoying. Anyway, she introduces her class on the first day with so much good impressions and I like it, one of those is the idea of us asking questions publicly so that our classmates would know what those were, another was answering exercises in public and getting your mistakes corrected by your classmates.
You know there’s nothing really wrong with the second one, it’s just that, when it gets uncontrollable, it’s embarrassing, and she won’t help you get the correct answer, she’ll rather have you get embarrassed than her assisting you with the solution. I respect her and her method, and I admit its quite of a method. HAHHA. But I just want her to realize that she’s not helping me with anything, or she does but I just can’t appreciate it. For many reasons, I can’t keep on blabbering about them, but for sure, her method is sort of insulting my skills and abilities, and my pride for the glory of the world. I mean, wth! Is she trying to step on me? Coz if that’s her thing for her students to learn, then dude, you really have some serious issues going on.
There’s only one thing I wish and that’s for her to stay away from her old method, because it’s not healthy. SRSLY.
