how can i stop myself killing all the boys in my college class?

Question

REALLY, constant playing of dodgy stupid phone ringtones, throwing things, generally being annoying, they bang their chairs off the tables, argue with lecturers...I think I want to scream!!

Answer 1

ha ha that sounds familiar from when i was at 6th form college. nothing you can do about it - they'll grow up in 15 years or so. if you're lucky.

Answer 2

If this is occuring in a class/lecture theatre, then what on earth is the teacher/lecturer doing while all that you describe is going on? It would not have occurred in any of my lectures, that's for sure!
Why not ask your head of school/department to (a) speak with the culprits and explain that further disturbance will result in their being ejected from the course; or, (b) tell the HoD that if something is not done to control this immature behaviour, you and your hardworking fellow students will boycott these classes. Furthermore, tell him/her that you will ensure the local media is informed about the reason for your action. You'll soon find that something will be done, since no educational establishment wishes to receive adverse publicity.

Above all, I feel the lecturers at your college need some assertiveness training. In several decades of college teaching I honestly never met a disruptive class (the occasional individual student, yes - but easily sorted out). It would be interesting to know where you are studying!

Answer 3

Move to an All Women's college, or join a convent. Or get earplugs and learn to read the lecturer's lips. Or sit up front, or tell the teacher that you can't hear. Or see a doctor to help with the noises in your head. Or explore if you have gender confusion issues. Just don't become violent. That would be the worst choice of all...

Answer 4

While it is true that everyone has their own level of tolerance, we cannot live life in a secluded sanctuary for long because human's are by nature, social beings.
I have encountered my share of disruption and turmoil and it does get to your nerves. I can understand what you are going through. This is what I had to learn from my own time: that it is not practical to go controlling everyone's space so that I can have a peaceful environment.
So to take a break from all the noise, I used to take a walk and adjust my schedules in such a way that I did everything outside my bedroom and when I returned back, I was too tired to stay awake.
Deep Breathing exercises can also calm one down from getting to the 'boiling point'.

Answer 5

If the lecturer can't control the class, you should make a complaint to the head of department, in writing. Your education shouldn't suffer because you have some morons in the class. If that fails, just revert to your original plan.

Answer 6

As a teacher myself I can fully appreciate your complaint .... your teacher/lecturer has a triple-fold responsibility - one to you - for your learning, two to your parents - who have, through the school, entrusted your education to him/her and three to the school's head teacher and board of Governors - as a responsible and suitably qualified educationalist ..... you, and your parents, have at least two avenues open to you ..... you must write a letter of complaint to the head teacher - with a copy to the board of Governors, your parents must also write to the head teacher with a copy to the board of governors .... and both letters must make the threat of complaining to the education department and the Minister for Education - if nothing is done to address this situation - and fast ......
YOU have a RIGHT to the BEST EDUCATION that that SCHOOL/COLLEGE CAN OFFER .... it's no good (no matter how stressed the teacher is - and teaching is extremely stressful - I know) for the teacher/lecturer trying to make excuses for not controlling the class - they should either have those disruptive students removed .... refuse to teach those disruptive students .... or insist on the school offering more and better back up to their calls for assistance in dealing with those disruptive students - and./or make a complaint themselves to the board of Governors and/or the education department .... education has got nothing to do with how 'tolerant' of disruptive behaviour a teacher is - not when your education is suffering ..... both you and your parents should remind the school/college of this.....
I certainly would not tolerate such behaviour in my classes -those students who chanced their arm with me got short shift and thrown out of my classes until they learned to behave properly and respectfully to both myself and my classes - my reputation is one of being 'strict but fair' (I quote my students themselves) ..... yet all my students think I'm one of the best teachers they've had - because I won't take such stuff as a teacher .....
Don't either you or your parents feel guilty about complaining - that teacher/lecturer took on that job knowing full well their responsibilities - make them carry that responsibility .....
Best wishes and
Good Luck

Answer 8

Approach the most annoying one, smash his chair, and hit him very, very hard with the leg.

Silence will ensue.

Say in a loud, clear authoritive voice

"Sit down, shut the **** up, and turn the phones OFF".

Better now?
