My English teacher is a bitch. How dare she debate with me about meaning of definition in the morning before I've had my coffee. She was wrong, by the way. The only reason I stopped talking was because she confused me due to my lack of understanding what's going on. She misunderstood everything I said. I told her I was lacking sleep, and she went on about how I need an English tutor...

UPDATED Thu Sep 4 2008 18:23:28 My English teacher happens to be slightly insane. We are only allowed to speak while we are in possession of "The Talking Stick", which is actually a blue frisbee. We put up our hands, and then he just tosses the thing right accross the room, expecting us to catch it. I swear half the time he's secretly aiming for our heads... Anyways, today we...

Hey all. I'm not sure if this should go here, in "school," or in "general," so I'm plopping it here. Mod(s), if this is in the incorrect section, feel free to move it. I was just wondering if anyone here has done alternate certification in order to become an English teacher. Though I'm in Charlottesville now, I'm planning on moving to Austin and hopefully going that route. I was just curious...

We've solved the mystery! I know. This was only my second day back, too. I can't imagine what else he's going to come up with. This is going to be a long year... *sigh* Having fun isn't hard when you have a library card!

I have a few of those. I also have some Alex Ross and Jim Lee statues. Key chains, cups. steering wheel covers, and thousands of comics And my grooms cake was a huge two layer superman symbol! "I dont *beep* goats, I make love to them " - Mister Rictus (WANTED)

In the zpirit of theze mezzagez, fuck you. It's the English, Aussies are just convicted Brits, that can't even pronounce what they spell! It's miliTARY not "miliTREE" , sKedule not sHedule. Go back to shool!

xbrat-I do laugh at him. I was 'coughing' the whole time and he told me to get some water. slipperykitty- My friend said he looked like a pornstar too. Bad mental images. Sherriff on Rathbone: I googled. I saw. I came

What was the definition? I'm curious.

Ah, my apologies, I meant English as a subject (i.e., grammar, literature, and the sort).

To OP, I am very much livid for you and your teacher has no right to be in a teaching position. No teacher ever has a right to discourage pupils enthusiasm, no matter what their opinions may be. I would question, not knowing how old you are, maybe he thought it inappropriate for someone in your age. But that should bring questions of very much mixed issues of an age, education, art...
