i need help with spanish 3

[RMH94]

I have this really hot teacher, how do I refrain from staring at her "assets"? :P lmao

[imnothere]

lol i had a problem like that with a teacher once. i talked to them and got to know them. once we were friends it didnt distract me that he was attractive. (i was in HS) in hind sight i would say that that may have actually been the best approach because i did much better in his class after that. not because he knew me and we chatted in the hall once in a while, but because i wanted to know what it was he was teaching and so i worked harder at that class then some of my others.
fortunatly it was art class so my natural talent gave me a solid foundation to work from

I have a question on behalf of all people doing Geography GCSE with (possibly) the worst teacher in our school. We made a song about him, he's that bad.

He's called Mr. Idontlikeyou. He hates most people. He's racist. He makes fun of students. He's a really, really awful teacher who picks out a page of the textbook and tells you to simply do the questions.

What I want to know is:

How do you try and get on with someone like THAT?

That is very tough. I recommend that you, at all costs, stay RESPECTFUL. But if he makes a racist remark about a student, ethnic group, or whatever obscenity it is that he is taking part in, or who he is insulting, raise your hand and politely say that you disagree with him and that the student/person that he insulted is very nice and it's not fair to say stuff like that. If it's about an ethnic group, you can say that it's not right to make assumptions or comments like that if you don't personally know those people. I know it takes guts to stand up to people like that, but sometimes you have to. I do it all the time (when it's needed at any rate), and it's worth it. But stay POLITE and RESPECTFUL, or else you will seem like a jerk.

If the issue persists, go to a counsellor, principal or other teacher you trust, and speak to them about it. They will most likely speak with this Mr.Pemberton and talk to him about this.

well i will have new teachers this year but a harder typing class which i really have to work on finisihing the work i have i only get 35 a minute :/

the reason why the teachers hate me is because i joke around lol
like someone was passing out gum and the teacher smelled it and i said who was passing out gum and didn't give me none. then the teacher looked at me so serious and thats just one of many many

I think that's more a matter of each teacher being a real person with their own likes and dislikes. Not every teacher likes when you mess around, and if you are always doing it they can be irritated by you because you disrupt the class.

I think what Boleslav is saying is that he likes students with a bit of personality and wit, but who can get the job done (assignment wise). He has his own personal tastes as well unique to him. Your teacher may prefer the exact opposite. Mind you, almost every teacher enjoys students they don't have to hunt down or babysit to complete their work, that you can take to the bank.

Each of your teachers will expect certain things from you. Be yourself, but be respectful (mindful of other people, even). Class clowns are only well liked by people if they can still buckle down and do the work, or know when to back off in general.

I actively tried once to get a teacher to dislike me and it just seemed to make them enjoy me as a student more which really really threw me for a loop. My point is sometimes you can never know. Remember teachers are real people, and their job is to get all of their students to learn and grow. As long as you aren't actively hindering that, you should be fine. At least, that's my opinion!
