College classmates; fail. (18)

1 Name: Anonymous : 2009-05-14 22:01 ID:rGa4xe/P

I'm in the last year of teacher training, and, believe me, my classmates suck really hard. Most of them are childish irresponsible individuals with AD/HD, whose only interest is to develop new ways to cheat in exams. For god's sake, at least half of them will become teachers for next year, and they have no idea about the subject they will be teaching (In before "Please think of the children", because it's so true.)

Even more, they are a bunc of alcoholic bastards, i swear, they only care about the weekend binges.
And most of them are the kind of people that NEVER shuts up, even in the middle of the class. And later, they complain because the subjects are TOO HARD to understand. God, these people.

Be scared, those are the kind of people that, eventually, might be your kid's teachers.

Did i mention that some of them are only in it because it was closer to their homes?

Why are you doing it then?

I reckon you should make the difference, even if it is with just a handful of students each year.

Good luck.

i have every intention of homeschooling my child. so screw the rest of the world, my child is going to be smart and a fucking anti social dick.

>>5 I pity your kid. I'm sure you'll achieve the anti-social dick part, less certain about the smart one, at least not thanks to you.

What you fail to understand is that even more important than the teachers, school provides with socialization, which itself offers many opportunities: by meeting other kids, your child will for instance understand that all parents are not selfish bastards like you, and will perhaps have a chance to develop into something better than what you have in store for him/her.

Take comfort in that they'll probably stay as primary/elementary school teachers for the most part of their life.

Just because your parents beat you doesn't mean every parent is like that. Stop projecting.

>>10 one has to wonder who's projecting...

Actually, I wonder why you are even introducing the notion of physical violence here. That's another discussion, but you can even start a new thread on it, if that interests you.

Reminds me of when I was going for my associates. Fucking professors brags about her masters degree in Day 1. By the time day 5 rolls around, we find out that she has never opened up a computer before in her fucking life or even build her own PC.

God dammit, why is she teaching computers when she has no experience in it. Shit only proves she either cheated to get her masters or she's really really good at writing papers and taking exams.

I hate this world that revolves around a piece of paper that says you got a masters or some degree. I think people with actual experience should be making more money then those with a masters.

OP here, again. This time it has become worst than ever. Now I can't even bear to be in the same classroom than them. I've begun to skip some classes because of that. I almost hit one of them with my bag last wednesday. When I told that to a friend, she commented "Wow, you really HATE them!"
Figures, then I realized I really hated them. At some point it went beyond simple anger and despise, it was hate. I'm not going to actively try to hurt some of them, or anything like that. But, I guess this is the first time in my life I've despised someone so much.

Most of the subjects this last semester focus on grupal work, so the rest of the year will become a long and stressing journey.
They make me doubt if any effort I'll make will be worth. After all, what's the point of one teacher trying to do things right and in the right direction, if there are other thirty-two imbecilic bastards ruining their students' education?

Because THAT one teacher will be the one they respect, the one they will talk about years after, and probably the one that will make them think their trip to whatever level of school they are currently in is actually worth something.

Really, in all my education I've had, what? Let's say three of four real, good teachers. I learnt a lot from them. I respected them. I'd buy them a drink if I met them in the streets. I'd tell them what goes on in my life. They really helped put things into perspective, not only in the subject they were teaching, but also in the very concept of student/teacher and the importance of learning, and stuff. Well. The most important thing they taught me, I think, is honesty. Honesty in the work you make.

I'd be pleased to know there is one more out there.

I think these are the types of people that want to become high school teachers simply because the never wanted to graduate past high school themselves. Pathetic socialite losers that shirk responsibility. I remember those teachers well and I hate them too.

Is there some way you can get them busted for cheating without making yourself out as the rat? Think of it as a public service.

I guess it's better to think of it as more of a test of your endurance than anything. If your classmates are acting like children, remember that you're aiming to become a teacher. I bet you hands down that there will be at least one immature student within every class you end up teaching in the future, if not a class full of immature students. If you learn to tolerate and respect your uncouth classmates now, you'll be well suited for handling the difficult students you will most likely have in your future.

I hope you don't think that way about all people who want to be teachers >>15.

Well, there is a big difference with children acting like children, and teachers-to-be acting like children. I guess it's the lack of professional behaviour. Think of it like being a clean cop who ended up working in a police station where everybody else is corrupt.1
