What's the worst teacher you ever had and why?

Question

We've all bad teachers but witch on stands out in your mind and why

Answer 1

my worst teacher was my sixth grade math teacher. he was horrible and didnt explain anyhting although if he would explain something he would get everyone confused. the worst part was we couldnt bad mouth him cause he was our principal

Answer 2

I had a lot of bad teachers. These were the worst:

One was a chemistry teacher who would yell at us and call us stupid because we weren't in AP Chemistry, and he would show us surgery videos just to gross us out. One time we made a very minor mistake in a lab project and he called off the whole thing and gave us all an "F". He was rumored to be an alcoholic.

Another was my fourth grade teacher who ignored the fact that I was getting beaten up in class, and who would lower my GPA every time my mother complained. The school administration was in on it, too, routinely covering it up. The principal is now the judge on "The People's Court".

Another teacher was my chorus teacher, who was fired for getting a student pregnant. It was on the news and in the paper, and the entire chorus was humiliated for the rest of my senior year.

There was also my German teacher who would talk about politics and abuse from his childhood, and he would show us movies like "Waterworld" that had nothing to do with the subject. There was also an English teacher who made it a rule in his class that we couldn't take the Lord's name in vain. I also had a psychology teacher who hit on me.

Maybe this is why I'm having trouble showing up for classes now that I'm in college. Just seeing the inside of a classroom gives me the creeps.

Answer 3

First grade teacher in Ft. Worth, Texas.
Her name was Mrs. Fretridge. Probably about fifty or so at the time.
She would have been ....well, I don't know what .... fired?...jailed?...sued? if it had been 2006 instead of 1968.
She was the school marm from hell, with the tower of red hair, pointy framed glasses and the attitude that children must be disciplined through severe physical punishments.
I would have to walk to her desk in front of the class and hold out my hands for a good smack from her ruler across the knuckles.
Dunce cap? I wish.
I remember being locked within the dark cloakroom for several hours at a time.
In the playground, during a dodge ball game, I had a disagreement about whether or not I'd been hit.
Suddenly she was on me, screaming and grabbing my small arms and then she swung me through the air so I landed hard on the concrete.
I told her during a test that I felt sick and in anger, she grabbed me and made me stand in front of her desk. I said, "please, I need to lie down"
I started to cry and then I suddenly had diarrhea come out.
She rounded the desk and smacked my butt hard, causing the diarrhea to explode out of the top of my pants.
I think that after that, there was a lot of shouting and laughter and I was picked up under my arms and thrown out of the classroom.

I also remember she would just take me to the burly principal so he could put me over his knee with the wooden paddle.

Eventually I just lost it, stuck some kid with my pencil and I got expelled and put on some drug according to her recommendation.
It was monsterous.
I feel like a veteran of the age before liable and litigation.
Thank God little kids don't have that anymore.

Answer 4

My second grade teacher Mrs. Arnold. She had a problem, because I remember seeing her popping pills in the back part of the classroom, and she would just be really mean and ugly to all the kids.

We were learning how to write in cursive and I wrote a letter wrong and instead of me erasing it, I wrote over it. She got all angry and poked me really hard in my chest and yelled saying I couldn't do that. She poked me so hard in my chest with her finger I had a bruise. I cried and told my momma. Now you know a black momma going up to a school to talk to a teacher because the teacher bruised her child is not pretty.
That teacher was such a beyoch.

Answer 5

Mr. Flasch!!!! omg he was the worst teacher!! ok like he did not teach at all! all he did was mess around and talk about nothing and all this dumb a$s sh_it... i failed that class bad this year(i just had his class this past year)... like when he teaches, it dont feel like hes teaching so then u just tune him out and do something else... and then i failed.. and it just always felt like all we did was watch movies and it was always so boring for me becuz he never taught the damn class!! u'd think it'd be fun having a goof off teacher but it really isnt once u have it
him and Mr. Mitchell... i never did a thing in gym class and i goofed off all the time and talked and all that shizz and then when i would go up to him to tell him i didnt wanna even change for class, he'd let me and i'd just sit around and watch with my friends... and then i find out that im getting an A in the class.. so i asked him about it and just smiled and said "You're a good student, Felicia. One of my favorites." and it was so gross, i almost died.. but i past the class and never had to do anything... but it was still gross everytime he'd look at me and smile.. i'd get chills and go home and take a shower cuz he made me feel gross lol

Answer 6

My 11th grade AP US History teacher. This a true story...

The day I walk into her class I am bombarded by blatently partisan posters. I won't tell you weather they were liberal or conservative, but they were definately politically charged. The posters used cathy phrases that implied that my political party wanted murder anyone who did not agree with it. I was offended. I talked to my mom about it, then we agreed to talk to my teacher. I asked her to take the posters down, but she called it "freedom of speech". I said freedom of speech must be balanced by respect for other students opinions. She wouldn't listen to me, and then accused my Mom of threatening her, which my Mom didn't do. We talked to the principal, and he agreed with us. He told us she would take the posters down immediately. Six months later she still had them up. Throughout the semester she made obvious disses on my party, accusing them of dirty politics and indifference towards the problems of America. Finally, she removed her offensive posters, and then put up a new poster that said "diolouge is preferable to censorship". I can assure you that if I had worn a shirt to school that said "(people who belong to my teacher's party) want to murder you" I would have been asked to remove it. But because my school is so biased towards one side of the political spectrum, everyone thought it was okay for a teacher to be one sided.
Oh yeah, and at the end of the year she gave me an assignment that was worth a gajillion points. She always let us turn in assignments a day late without penalty, but when I tried to do that she wouldn't accept it. I almost got a B at the end of the semester when I had had an A the whole year long.
Note to teachers: DON'T BE PARTISAN!

Answer 7

A horrible old man named Mr. Kawslawski, was my 8th grade math teacher. He delighted in making a student go up to the chalk board first thing in the morning, and he would give that student a math problem to solve in front of the whole class. I was not very good at math, so he picked on me continuously. Greg Ramet ( I'll never forget him!) would "whisper" the answers to me. I hope 'ol "Cows-louse-ski" as I used to call him went bankrupt, or something. Just look up "Jerk" in the old encyclopedia, his picture is there.

Answer 8

Our 5th/6th grade teacher wouldn't let a girl use the bathroom. I was sitting up front by the teacher's desk, and the girl wet her pants. I hated the teacher for denying her a bathroom visit. I've often wondered how it affected the poor girl.

Answer 9

Image: Mr. somebody leaning against the blackboard and leaving armpit sweat spots all over it.

Image: Mrs. Hentze wearing a clown style purple jumpsuit and asking a boy in grade seven to "share" with us his pain about his father recently dying.

Image: Mr. Scott playing mind games with the class and terrorisng everyone into sitting silently, glaring at people for no reason, just to make them nervous, and getting off on it...

Answer 10

I had two junior high teachers that were really bad. One was nicknamed The Crazy Lady by other students and the other was so easy to be walked on by students that we did nothing in her class and I didn't learn anything!

Answer 11

I'll never forget how awful, and bigoted, my 5th grade teacher was. She, and most of the class were of the Jewish faith--only myself and about 5 others were not. She ridiculed us, gave us poor grades, etc. In all my years of school - she is the worst teacher I ever had.
