Teachers, mentors and instructors are considered to be the unsung heroes in our present time. They are the ones who mold and nurture the young minds of the future. They provided challenges and create ways to help us get a better understanding in the things we need to know. I still remember my teacher who pushed me to go further not only academically but also in being adept in the real world.
But not all teachers are the same. Some loves to terrorize their students with a pop quiz or humiliate them in front of the class. I guess there's something about being superior to the inferior that creates this fondness of terror. Whenever they mention your name in class, there's a severe chill at your spine and suddenly your mouth becomes dry. Either way, we all have our share of this kind of teachers or professors, that loves to be superior above all else.
I can vividly remember during high school days, I had this professor who taught me subject-verb agreement. I must say that I'm a pretty average student who tries to do extra curricular activities as possible. At one time, whenever I raised my hand (for some reason) she always thought that I needed to go to the bathroom. It's not that I don't participate that much in class but at one point I think she doesn't want me to be in her class at all. She keeps on giving side comments whenever I participate in the class discussion. It kinda hindered me to talk in class since then. I don't have any idea why she thinks that way. It's just frustrating when your professor thinks your dumb. The good thing is that if I messed up my grammar here, especially my subject-verb agreement, I know who to blame. Hehehe. (Just joking!)
