Most memorable teachers

[ChibiHorsewoman]

[color=darkviolet]This seemed like a good idea. It doesn't involve debate, violence or a bunch of arguements about things...unless people had the same teachers, but that doesn't seem very likely.

They can be your favorite or least favorite. But remember to explain why. Also what subject and grade you had them in would be good too.

As for myself:

[b]third grade: Miss Rosica[/b]

She was cool because she used to tell us stories about how she'd get into fights in school. We'd also get to take turns 'teaching' part of a subject. Or since it was a Catholic school, we'd get to read out of the Bible in the morning. We also got to hatch ducks and we did some weird version or the 12 days of Christmas. Or atleast the girls did. Boys never want to have any fun.

[b] 8th grade: Miss Worth/Mrs. Wolke (the same lady, but she got married)[/b]

I ended up going to a smaller school during middle school because I had anger management problems. So this one was able to deal with me (sugoi ne?) ( Don't worry this is part of the story to explain why this teacher was cool. ) There were only 6 students per class and when I got to eighth grade the two boys that were in my class kept getting suspended so it was just us four girls. So in the mornings before the actual school started we got to goof around and stuff. And for lunch, she'd go out and get us Mc DOnalds and let us listen to the radio. We had it really good.

[b]11th grade: US History Mr. Howlett[/b]

My brother also had him for US History and he liked the guy too, so that proves Mr. Howlett is a really memorable teacher. He had good ideas for helping us review, like playing jeopardy. He also picked up a kid and spun him over his head for some odd reason.

[b]Freshman year of College: English 101[/b]

I don't remember the guy's name, but we had some really off the wall assignemnts. Once we had to note the grammatical errors at the express lanes at a grocery store. He was also late a few times and during finals after our grades were handed out he asked how many grandfathers you could kill in one semester. Some kid anaswered as many as you have availble.

[b]Freshman year of College: English 2[/b]

Yeah, I had two memorable english teachers. You want funny english teachers you go to FLCC. My second one had us read and watch Othello. Ok. We also had to decipher what Van Gogh was trying to say in his Starry Night painting. My group decided that he was on drugs...most likely some kind of downers. We also had to listen to this woman singing something and try to explain that. And we listened to Puff the Magic Dragon to see if there really were any hidden messages. Good class if you too were on any type of drug.

I'll add more I think. I just want to see if anyone else had good or memorable teachers.[/color]

[COLOR=DimGray][SIZE=1]Lets see now.

[b]Year 3 ( I suppose that would be what...2nd Grade?) - Ms Summers:[/b] Ho boy was she psychotic. Flame red hair and a temper to match this woman had many a child in tears for the simplest of offenses. I think everyone was scared of this woman. She was, however, the single best story teller ever (In my infantile opinion), and brought stories such as 'The Witches' and 'James and the Giant Peach' to life with voices and emotion. She did get some kids to stroke her legs while she did this though...kinda scary when you look back on it ¬_¬.

[b]Year 7 French and Year 8 tutor/english/french - Mrs Rumford:[/b] Very strict, but very nice if you were in her good books. Everything had to be perfect work wise. If your writing was messy or if your work wasn't underlined in either red or blue [i]rrrrrrriiiiiipppp[/i] out the page came. Even so, she made learning pretty fun and was a great person to talk to once you got to know her like I said. She kept telling us stories about her cat Podge and how the noise he made when he got stuck up a tree one time sounded like the french word for yoghurt. I'll never forget that word heh.

[b]Year 9 History - Mr Craddock:[/b] "Simon-ah" shouted in the style of a drill sergent is forever in my mind when I think of this man. His voice rang across the class room like this, most likely directed at Simon, in the style of an army major disciplining his platoon. He was, however, a very nice and funny man and wore the most outrageous and interesting ties, such as one with a toothbrush and a little tiny mirror stuck to it. Incidently I was to get his daughter as a tutor in Year 10.

[b]Year 10/11 History and Year 12 Sociology - Mr Wilkinson:[/b] I am sure that this man had to have been diagnosed with schizophrenia or multiple personality disorder or something, seriously, this bloke was nuts. One minute he'd be laughing and joking with you then all of a sudden he'd turn into Mr Hyde and yell at you for the smallest thing. My friend once caught him jumping down the stairs in school humming the theme tune to Mission Impossible. I think he mellowed out a bit once he had a kid, but he was still a scary scary man.

[b]Year 12 and 13 History - Mr Burford, Burf-man, Papa-Burf:[/b] My hero, your hero, hero of the world. I give you Dr John Burford! This man is the single reason I am taking History at University and is possible the [i]only[/i] reason I passed A level history. Anyone who was in my class can testify that he is the most brillian man on the planet. Never before have a met a teacher who would negotiate with you when you wanted to hand in your homework. If you didn't do you homework he wouldn't shout at you oh no, he'd just do those eyes that make you feel like you have run over his dog and you'd do it for him there and then. You'd give up anything just to make this man happy. He's the kind of guy you'd wish grandkids on. Mr Burford gave the class his home number just incase we needed him. He went to Australia for a teachers conference and came back with a cut on his head. He said he walked into a door, we like to think that he whupped *** in a bar fight (baring in mind this man looks about 70). We Salute you John Burford, may you forever teach young minds History.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT][color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Fifth Grade: Miss Gelfuso (might not be spelt right)[/font][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Anyone who had her would have to agree that she was awesome. She used to dress up as all sorts of different people. For math she dressed up as some guy named Ray who was married to an isosceles (sp?) triangle? she was a fitness lady for spelling? and there were a lot more. Then there was the alien Gertrude who we never saw but knew existed. And she would also pretended to be a student. I think she?d put her hair in pigtails, and then she would pic one of the students to be the teacher and let us call her Alison. [/font][/color]
[color=#333399][/color]

[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Sixth Grade Spanish: Mrs. New[/font][/color]

[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]...anyways[/font][/color]
[color=#333399][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT][/font][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Sixth Grade English: Mr. Weimen[/font][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]You can?t go wrong with an English teacher who teaches you magic tricks! ?And it was also interesting that he was the head of the middle school.[/font][/color]

[color=#333399][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Sixth Grade Science: My. Wolf[/font][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Yet another teacher who let us listen to music? we would listen to Barbie Girl and We Didn?t Start the Fire in his class. I was hopping I?d get him for eighth grade science (he switched so that he mostly teaches eighth grade classes) but got Mr. Davis instead... but I?m not that mad we have an awesome class. Mr. Wolf also does all the running sports last year for sports I had him for Cross Country and Track ?this year I didn?t do Cross Country (because they moved Soccer to the fall) but will still be doing Track and am Currently in Fitness (which he coaches). [/font][/color]

[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Seventh Grade Math: Mr. Stephens[/font][/color]
[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]Taking a turn for the worse I did not much enjoy having MR. Stephens as a teacher?. Or advisor. He always got off track and could obviously not control our class we spent more time playing than learning and I think his teaching might have contributed to why I?m in normal algebra and not honors. I had an A average the first two trimesters but he got sooo of track the last trimester and I just could not concentrate. I spent class either doing homework or reading? he ended up kneading to warn me he might give me a formal warning if I kept reading? gah and of course Mr. Stephens had another personality known as Randolph that would occasionally come out. And he never stopped drinking coke? you try taking ERBs while every five minutest he was opening another coke can. [/font][/color]

[color=#333399][font=Futura Lt BT]I might add some of my eighth grade teachers in awhile but I haven?t even touched my homework so? yea. [/font][/color]
[/font][/color]

[Retribution]

[b]First Grade[/b] - Ms. Lynch
Just because of her name. I later learned what lynching was, and could not but help laughing when I thought of her. But it was one of those... creeped out laughs.

[b]Second Grade[/b] - Ms. Rudolph
She had a MAJOR crush on Gus Ferrotte, the Washington Redskins quarterback. She had all this Gus-signed merchandise... it was strange. And she always tried to relive her younger days. >_>;;

[b]Third Grade[/b] - Ms. Beckerman
I knew more about computers than her back then. She thought that the computer was on the verge of death when it made those clicking, loady sounds. She would spazz out when it did that, and shout at me to not touch the mouse until it was done 'thinking.' Weirdo. She also had a son who was on the US National Soccer team.

[b]Sixth Grade[/b] - Mr. Harris/Ms. Donahue
Mr. Harris rubbed Gold Bond lotion on his corned feet to make them soften. In class. At his desk. He ... was always on a power trip, screaming at us to "SHUT UP!" whenever we whispered. Strange.

Ms. Donahue was a major [i]w[/i]itch. She actually did have a favorite student, and she admitted it openly. Teachers aren't supposed to do that. They're supposed to at least [i]act[/i] like she likes us all equally.

[b]Seventh Grade[/b] - Ms. Fadli/Ms. Chaudry
Ms. Fadli was hands down the coolest teacher I've ever had. She would let us cut class sometimes, and actually cover for us. She would allow us to play cards, even when it became against school-policy to do so. She said "You kid's will learn to gamble anyway. Might as well teach you young." which was cool. Man she was awesome...

Ms. Chaudry didn't have a strong grasp on a grading system, and valued 'honor' so highly, it sometimes counted more than doing the work itself. For example (this is forreal):

"Did anyone cheat on this test?" she asks.

"I did." one kid says.

"Cheating is bad. But being honest is good. You've done justice to yourself and everyone else. You get an A." was her reply.

In retrospect, she could've been fired for that, but I didn't really know/care back then.

[Morpheus]

K-5 Librarian-Mrs. Lynch
She was so much fun to be with and on the last day she gave us seashells from the carribean.

9- Mr. Peterson/Mrs. Black/Mrs. Conway
Mr. Peterson teaches the best elective ever. We learn a lot in such a short amount of time that we can use the computers and play some games to break up the day. We will build rockets and gliders only because he realized that the book work is really repetitive. We also help him with concession stand work and get candy or drinkd as rewards.

Mrs. Black is memorable for dancing around the question like a politition. She will also not listen to one of the kids in the class so he flicks her of with both hands as soon as she turns around.

Mrs. Conway is crazy. She suffers from a newly discovered disease called Conwaysia(pun alert) and forgets everything. The class brings out the best in her. She is clueless to so many things. We changed seating arrangements about a week ago and she put all 3 people in the class named Charles in the same row(3 seat rows). We now simply refer to it as "Charles Row".

[color=darkviolet]I had a teacher like that in first grade, her name was Mrs. Bonafede. Not a pleasant woman to have around your kids. Thankfully she was old when I had her.

I don't remember if she played favorites or not, but she [i]was[/i] a [spoiler]b[i][/i]itch[/spoiler].

One day there was this boy elbowing me and kicking me so I hit him (hey, I was 6) and told him to move because I didn't have enough room. Mrs. Bonafede jumped from her desk and dragged me over to the second grade classroom (it would take too long to explain how the rooms were set up) she opened up the door and said, here, if you want to complain, complain to them.

It left a bad immage in my immpressionable psychee (sp?)

I also had a kindergarten teacher who kept blaming me for breaking the toys in the play area.But I think she was mad at me because she did have favorites and I hit him...hey, he was picking on me for being adopted. Dork.[/color]

[Epitome]

[size=1][color=#003399][b]First Grade: Mrs. Nelson-[/b] Man did I love that class. I remember everyday, someone would get to sit in the "special" chair which was right next to hers and get to choose someone to play on the mini jungle gym in her room. We went in alphabetical order so I was last but it was still a good time.

[b]Fifth Grade: Mr. Scaduto-[/b] He was a fun teacher as well. Every Friday during our english "session" if you will, he would read us books. We ended up finishing two and they were "Holes" and "Avalanche." And they were both excellent. He also us do alot of what we wanted to do in his class. We even got to play with crawfish as an experiment. ^_^

[b]Eigth Grade: Mrs. Alston-[/b] How this woman got married, I could not tell you. She was the most picky, OCDish teacher I have ever had and she hated everyone. She taught my Earth Science class that year and she hated me more than anyone, but only because I didnt pay attention and still finished off with an average of about 96%. I also had a free period with her that year and all she let us do was read. We couldnt do any homework or anything.

[b]Ninth Grade: Mr. Armstrong and Mr. Perzinsk-[/b] I hated Mr. Armstrong. He wasnt really my teacher but he was the disciplinary principle. All he did was walk around school looking for reasons to write someone up. He was one of the biggest, pardon my french, ******** I have ever had as part of my school.

But Mr. Perzinski was the best. He was my English teacher that year and man he had class. Even though he gave me some below average grades, he was probably the coolest teacher I have ever had. He would play music in class, we watched movies all the time, and on top of that, most of the time we would just chill out and talk during class. I looked forward to that class everyday.

And last but not least, [b]Tenth Grade: Mr. Kibler-[/b] Even though I havent finished this year out yet(about half way through), he is probably my coolest teacher. We have only had 2 tests the whole year including midterms and never have homework. We basically talk about current events of what is going on in the government and thats it. Plus, we watch at least one full hour and a half movie every 2 weeks to show how a subject fits into our government.

So, I would say I have had some pretty cool teachers, and some pretty un-cool ones ^_^.[/size][/color]

[SIZE=1]

[b]3rd Grade : Miss Gasspirini[/b]
I admit I use to be a teacher's pet up until 5th grade when I became a rebel. She did like me for most of the year, and my best friend the most. She was really young. That is until I got a really bad temper with her (hey what can i say i was a hot-headed kid) she left for another school the next year. What more can I say.

[b]6th Grade - ? : Mrs. Mayor [/b]
Friend of my mothers, we still keep in touch. She's a family friend and use to teach me when I was like in 5th grade, and was the prinicpal at my school. Just to let you know, when your mom's friends with the principal, you practically get away with anything. So we became close friends. But she was a very strict and harsh teacher, but I loved her.

[b]8th grade : Miss Gay[/b]
Okay so maybe it sounds silly, but I saw other people listing teachers with funny names. This has got to be the worst one I ever had, and that says alot. She was my P.E. teacher and a total biotch, that would yell at us to keep running. It was funny because when we were made into teams for a sport, we would laugh cause they would say the teachers last name before, like they would say "Page Guys over there and Gay Girls over here" I remember the other teacher Mr. Page would say. She was also creepy cause she was in her 20's and married to a guy like in his 50's or 60's. One kid even asked if that was her dad, and she said no thats my husband.

[b]10th Grade : Mr. Thomas [/b]
When I went to highschool only one teacher truly stook out. He's cooky, but he's got a great sense of humour. He's one of those teachers who walks around with a ruler though, just waiting to hit it on your desk to get you to pay attention. He seems like a jerk, but really he's just crazy. lol he once asked me to sit by him in class, and I thought he was going to say my grades were bad or something. But he just went "Hey whats up?" really strange. but then again if i understood him, he wouldn't be Mr. Thomas.

[Grammar Panzer]

[COLOR=Navy] All of my teachers were pretty cool, and does "most memorable" necessarily have to mean, good memories?

Anyway, my 8th Grade Social Studies teacher, [B]Mr. Grcevich[/B]. He made learning... dare I say... fun? He always walked around, cracking jokes, about stupid things that happened that day, or stupid things in history that deserved to be made fun of. He even let us reenact some scenes from battles or assassinations and whatnot. Then again, he did love the violence. Very enthusiastic about the wars, [B]Civil War[/B] mainly. If you think this sounds like your teacher, do he confiscate and protect bouncy balls from your peers and keep them in a box? No cell phones, no skate decks, [B]bouncy balls[/B]. He even hip-checked a kid to dive for a bouncy ball. I tell you, he was awesome. (Also taught me the ways of [B]Magic[/B], with his enormous deck.)

Same year, [B]Mr Stookey[/B]. Choir director. (This is the "bad memories" I was saying earlier.) I wasn't in Choir, at all, (I was in band, still am. :P) but I know about this guy. Two words describe him: large man. (Okii ookino otoko to the max.) He was so... huge... and I know I sound mean, but ask Billy Shears, the man was a whale. Constantly eating during lessons, assigning horrible English parts, and making the worst puns you could ever imagine... ugh...

[Sea Of Chaos666]

My favorite teacher of all time is-

Ms.Kiesel. She is my art teacher as a matter of fact right now. She's exactliy like me...she hates valintines day, she love's Vidiogames,anime,drawing,Reading all that good stuff. I love her she drives me home and some times we go out to eat...ha..good times...good times...

The teacher I hate most is-

Ms.Floris. She is so mean never nice. She thretens to take me out of all my classes because my grades...THERE ALL B"S!!!!!!!!!!!!!....god i hate her....

[Japan]

[COLOR=Navy][B]2nd Grade (I forgot her name at the moment >_<...I'll edit this later)[/B]

She was an awesome teacher. We adopted a puffin, and we also learned about the Chinese New Year. I even learned how to use chop sticks for the first time that year as well. That class was fun.

[B]5th Grade: Mr. Kovacs[/B]

Though I only had him for Social studies and science, he was really nice. He was a very understanding guy and helped me through a lot of social problems I had that year.

[B]HS Pottery Teacher: Mr. Lepper[/B]

He was by far the best teacher I've ever had. He helped encourage me in my art, as well as help me through the various troubles during the three years I had him. He was a great guy to talk to.

[B]Senior and Freshman year for social studies: Mr. Maxfield[/B]

Same as Mr. Lepper. When Mr. Lepper retired last year, I was really upset. Mr. Maxfield left me talk to him and he encouraged me and helped me feel better about myself.[/COLOR]

[Dragonboym2]

[COLOR=Blue]My dad is a high school math teacher at my local high school. He is head of the math department, and is coach of the Reading Rockets High School baseball team. My mom is a figure skating teacher. She used to teach at the Stonam arena. Nancy Kerrigan is actully of freind of the familys. We knew her before the silver metal, and before the...incident. Oh, BTW no Nancy and Tanya jokes, okay? We hated that. We were greatly offended by the worlds comments.

As for my teachers, they would be as follows:

Mr. Dent AKA Dent
He was an old ball player on ym dad's team. He is an old freind of the family's, and is very popular with the students. He teaches U.S. History. That's where I met my freind Akudo Wakasuki. (More on him later. :) ) Dent made our classes fun. Yeah you heard me. School? Fun? Are you crazy? He allways greeted us with saying.."It's good to see your smilinmg faces..." "AGAIN!" We'd all finish, in unisin. He would also play Beatles, music, and James Taylor. Every Friday, he'd play Sinatra. He's very positive, and upbeat. And he's only about, what 31? He made that class alot of fun for me. But that's another story for later :)


Ms. X
I forget her name. :) I never had a class with her, but all the guys in my class wanted one with her. She was VERY pretty. She was Asian American, and get this: A MODEL. I'm not joking. She's been in alot of Boston newspapers, and catalogs. I saw her again in a copy of the Herald during my freshmen year. I never really got to talk to her, though.

Matt Lopes
Matt was more than a teacher, he was my freind. We liked comics, video games, scf-fi, horror, LOTRS, Star Wars, etc. It was great. Until one day, somthing changed. Matt is in the Air Force, and he was driving us to school one day. I reminded him that I had some stuff to do, and he bit my head off. Matt had a court order to go to, and instead of someone to cover for him, he thought he could do it himself. I politely told him that I know he's under some pressure, but he has no right to take it out on me. He just erupted. He started screaming at me he called me "Mother #$^&@r," and took out all his anger on me. I just sat there and took it. Later, I told one of head of staff at my school what happened. He thanked me, and when I got to see my dad later. He had a phone call from the head of staff. He apologized on teh schools behalf seven times, and said that it wasn't my fault. He said "Matt's behavior was inexcusable, and unaccepptable. And it resulted in his amedeat termination." He was fired. I haven't spoken to or seen him since.


Mr. Croft
He was my english teacher. He tought Track, and a class I was in called "Media and adolecent." We basicly watched movies. They were dramaic stuff like "Good Will Hunting", "Higher Learning", "Dead Poets Sociity", "Stand By Me", "A Bronx Tale", "Finding Forrester", and one other but I forget. He was a former Veitnam vet. He was also a big "Seinfeild" fan. He was allways making Seinfield gags. Like he once asked me if I got that PS2 game I wanted, and I said when I got there, they told me they sold their last one. "NEWMEN." He replied. He was fasinated with my knollege of comic books, sci-fi, and stuff. He would ussually bring up Superman. Because Seinfeild likes Superman. We'd spend an entire twenty or ten mintues talking about that stuff. It was fun.

These people really made an impact on my life. I see Dent every now again. Croft not for a bit, and Matt...we'll see.

Favorite teachers...now there is a walk down memory lane.

[u]Mr. Martinez my fourth grade teacher.[/u]
He was so cool. Up until I ended up in his class all my teachers had been very matronly. Mr. Martinez was pretty much right out of college. He was still young and lots of fun. I think that he really made school fun. Plus he was cute too!

[u]Mr. Anderson my fifth grade teacher.[/u]
Mr. A was the teacher all fifth graders wanted to have as a teacher. He would tell jokes and always make the kids laugh. At the school talent show he actually performed. The only teacher to do so. He danced and sang. He had an over the top personality that just rocked. It was great having a teacher that wasn't a stick in the mud like some of the other teachers.

[u]Mr. Rogers my Anthropology instructor in college.[/u]
By the second day of class, he already learned all the students names. He actually cared about each and every one of his students. He was a great instructor that I learned a lot from. Even today he still remembers me. His caring showed through in his teaching. His class was very tough but he made the atmosphere very laid back and comfortable. He is a great teacher.

[SIZE=1]Oh yeah, all right, are you gonna be in...oh, oh this is a thread...ok, just singing, sorry.

[COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=1]You had Mr. G., I had Mr. Svencner. He was a science teacher, and I'll be damned if the man doesn't get Teacher of the Year award. He was such a good teacher and friend. He did so much to help the kids in the school. He organized the Magic: The Gathering club (which is still goin' strong).

He also made fun of lowerclassmen and how ignorant and stupid they were.

A bad teacher experience was Mr. Stookey. Grammar Panzer didn't have her for a teacher, while I did. He was just a bad teacher. We ask for help, he gets sidetracked and starts on a new lesson. We read Romeo & Juliet for half the school year. It isn't that long of a play. He had extremely bad jokes, and was always looking at...women's clothing catalouges. Weird.

And was he fat. Good gracious Lord up above was he [I]fat[/I]. Like the lady from "Whats Eating Gilbert Grape" fat, but worse (yeah people can be worse than that).He had a Whopper from Burger King every day, followed by a Dunkin Donuts sized cup full of Smarties. And the guy has the ignorance to blame it on "diabetes". Goddamn, dumbass, you eat a 48 oz. bag of Smarties every day! Thats why you have diabetes and thats why your [I]huge[/I].

Then there was Ms. Caddick. Insert own name altering insult here. She wasn't a good teacher, bar none. I just think she didnt know how to teach, she just made us read the textbook and do the homework, turn it in the next day, and repeat.

[Harry]

College Freshman Government teacher- Mr. Duke
Midway through the semester he decided to make attendance 20% of our grade because he felt that too many people were "just getting by on the tests." I was one of those "just getting by" people with my 96 test average. Naturally I wasn't in class that day and had no way to know this. I was quite suprised when I ended up with a C+ in that class. I went into his office and bitched for a while and he said "Listen Harry, I'm trying really hard to care, but I just can't."

He also had one of his tests 85 questions True and False, all of them were True.
