… and then one parent complained, and the admin micromanaged the teacher for the rest of the year.
It was college, not elementary school.
Happens there too
all good then
My senior class in high school, the French and History teachers got together to plan a senior trip to Canada post-graduation, with stops in Montreal and Quebec. They let us have beers (on our own dime) if we wanted since the drinking age up there was 18, and one of my history teachers even offered a few of us Cuban cigars the last night of the trip since there was no embargo in Canada but we couldn’t cross back into the US with them. Was a pretty good time.
We were warned the Quebecois could be kinda douchey to non-native speakers, but I found the whole trip was pretty chill, and as long as you were at least trying to speak French to them, they were more than accommodating for directions and help. Was a really memorable trip, 20+ years later still a very fond memory. Good teachers are great.
That’s wholesome!
I generally have a pessimistic opinion of these sorts of things being entirely made up for the likes/upvotes/shares, but some of them I at least wish/hope that they are true.
This is one of them.
Don’t make me dance
Dude, wake up! You shit the bed.
And then everyone clapped/applauded?
Edit: okay I’m just not familiar with thise kind of nice & funny things. I grew up in Sweden. We don’t step out of bound there. Like at all. Good for you though! Cheers!
Only if you’ve never been to small-class-size college. “College professor takes a lesson to do something eccentric instead of the class curriculum” happened in at least one class at least once a semester. You uh, learn a lot about your professors.
I grew up in sweden, no jokes in school there.
Which is a shame ofc 🙍🏼♀️.
The name of the teacher? Saddam Hussein

My Russian professor one year had an after-semester dinner party at her own house, complete with some of her family and friends showing up to play traditional music and teach us about the foods they made and stuff. There was indeed dancing and instruction of such, as well. And yes, everyone clapped, because that’s a traditional way to keep beat with music, especially music meant for movement.
It was a really small class, but all the same, that sort of thing does happen, especially with language teachers in my experience, because they also want to teach culture. Those were most of my coolest (other than my very wacky physics prof).

I’ve never had anything this extreme happen, but I did once have a professor who realized that the lesson he was teaching was difficult and boring and, at the end of it, said that he was going to cancel the quiz and to not study hard this weekend because, “if you study too hard, your brain will explode and you’ll die.”
I had a lot of trouble understanding your accent, Dr. Tran, and math is super hard for me, but much respect for that.
Brother, this never happened…
I had a high school friend who’s dad was an Arabic language professor. He apparently once read a text to class so boring that he fell asleep while doing it.
I hope your teachers just doesn’t dump a list of vocab that you must learn without any context. This isn’t an effective method to learn new words.
