<p>You know what? I love my teachers, and I've not gotten along with teachers before, and I've rolled my eyes at ill-prepared teachers before, but I gotta tell you, I hate this one teacher of mine. </p>
<p>I'd like to say that it's just because the teacher's so dogmatic and isn't lenient with me at all, especially in my senior year, with my missing class or assignments and letting me make them up, and that is a big part of it. But that's not all of it. </p>
<p>The teacher just isn't a very nice person. My teacher complains, is unpleasant, is vindictive against the students, and isn't that strong in the subject of instruction. My teacher adds to my personal stresses and makes my life more difficult. </p>
<p>Why were we put on earth? Certainly not to make each others' lives more difficult. But clearly my teacher was cutting class the day when "Social Empathy and the Art of Being Agreeable 101" was taught.</p>
<p>I hate to come off cold here but this is only one teacher in your senior year of high school. Even if he/she hurts your grade, the effect is small as it is just one class and even more so because it is your senior year. </p>
<p>As a note, I just had a logic teacher dock me 45 pts (out of 100) on my latest midterm because I decided to prove an argument in a different way than he had done it (it still did exactly what a proof should do {prove that an argument is valid} and he never specified which method we should use). That 45 pts equates into 9% on my overall grade (each midterm is 20% of our final grade). Instead of complaining about my teacher and how crazy it was for him to be so stubborn as to not accept my answer, I've used my disappoint to fuel some motivation for me so now I'm going on a personal vendetta against the guy to destroy his class (we have a midterm and a final remaining and I will get 100% on both).</p>
<p>I'm not talking about my grades, here, although that clearly ****es me off. I just hate my teacher as a person. What an awful person.</p>
<p>The first thing you mention is the effect the teacher has on your grade in the class. That is clearly what is most on your mind. Sure, after you mention the grades you try not to sound too shallow and self-serving so you talking about some of the other less than appealing qualities of this teacher that affect others. I understood the annoying teachers but like I said, it's one class and you are on the final stretch of high school. It will be over before you know it.</p>
<p>P.S. I had a high school teacher that was an arrogant, cynical jerk to kids (he would openly make fun of people in class, make kids cry, and was genuinely a prick to students). At the same time, he expected everybody to come to him with their problems because, in his eyes, he was a "nice guy" when you got to know him. Deep down, he was decent, but he tried way to hard to be cool and seem detached but caring at the same time. I ended up kidnapping some of Christmas decorations over my Christmas break (I'm in college).</p>
<p>I hate this math teacher I had last term. She love to yell at us when we dont know how to answer her questions. And she called my work Bullsh!t , when she's actually looking at the wrong thing. ~_~ so unprofessional.</p>
<p>be sickeningly sweet to the teacher. make her (him?) valentine's day cards and give them to her every day for 2 weeks. write a poem about her class and how much you love it. email her questions. play mind games. it's so much fun, especially now that it doesn't matter what teachers think of you.</p>
<p>You're a senior in high school complaining because your teacher won't be lenient enough and let you make up all your missed classes and assignments? I hate to break it to you but you're really going to hate your college professors. I've had, I think, two college professors who let you make up work you missed. For all of the others, make up work ends when you get to college. If you miss it, you miss it. Maybe in this respect, your teacher isn't trying to be mean but is trying to prepare you for what's to come. This isn't to say that your teacher doesn't hold any faults, but this is the only clearly explained charge you brought up and maybe you should try looking at it from another angle.</p>
