I'm sure all of us had a mean teacher once during our school days, the kind that made you just wanna poison their apple. I had one back in third grade (Mrs. Mullen) who was a real witch. I remember having problems with math and asking her for help, she told me that she already explained it once to me and that she wasn't going to do it again. Tell us about some of your mean teachers.

I have mean teachers. My grade 1 teacher made sure we all wrote with our RIGHT hand. If you were a southpaw and you were caught that mighty ruler would wack your hand.

OK!

Mr. Tessell...Speech and Drama class 8th grade...


This guy was the biggest jerk and had no reason teaching...All of his handouts were handwritten and then copied...he never referenced any manuals...

he would make us read his handwritten rants while he played guitar in the back of the class..

all of us spoiled trouble makers would complain and the principle never did a thing about it...

it escalated to the point that Jennifer Gauger (who indeed up being our senior class validictorian) lead a walk out of the entire class...we stormed the principles office and protested (i swear this is all true)...

nothing was ever done and we all suffered an entire year of pain in that class...

but too bad u had a jerk of a principal, too

I do some work with schools, and I can tell you that just about half the teachers I know are idiots. Scary!

Hey I'm a mean teacher


Naw I'm not but I think that teachers like that. The teachers kids really hate, have reached burnout and need to find a new job. My

My meanest teacher was my fifth grade teacher MRS. WERTZ, who once gave me detention for smirking in gym class. She looked like that old drunk puppet bitch who owned the museum on Mr. Rogers Neighborhood and I HATED HER.

My second meanest teacher was MRS. NAY in 3rd grade, who once made me wear my coat in class all day because I wouldn't wear my coat during recess. CAN I HELP IT I GENERATE MORE HEAT THAN MOST PEOPLE?!? Bee-hive wearing old biddy...

Paisley, that's terrible! What a mean thing for a teacher to do to a student who just needed a little extra help.

Mrs. Mullen

Hey my cousin's doin her rounds..she's studying to be a primary skool teacher
Hmmm..mean teachers..i remember my kindergarten teacher...i remember my mum used go "oh! Miss Anna LOVES you!" and i was like "huh?" cause like she always used to tell me she was gonna growl at me and dat made me and scared...cause she was so BIG!

My Gym teacher was a sadistic cow. She would humilate everyone who wasn't good at sports. Everyone hated her.

Mrs Hartley was the cows name We all thought she was really a man.

It's late edit

I had an 8th grade english teacher, Mrs. Hardey, who was just COLD. I was up at the chalkboard to diagram a sentence and did not know how to do it. She took the chalk outta my hand and told me to sit down. Of course the popular girls were in there, enjoying the whole thing. When my dad got sick with cancer, I was really having a difficult time, and was at the counselors office a lot, and I went to class one day in tears..Mrs. Hardey took me out in the hall and told me "You have one minute to get your act together and get back in that room". I left, and never went to her class again.. about 5 years ago, I saw her in a restaurant. She obviously had a debilitating illness, I am guessing a stroke had occurred or, like my dad, brain cancer...I didn't approach her, but I did think "what goes around comes around..."

I had a very emotionally abusive physics teacher my senior year of high school. He had a PhD in psychology so he really knew how to fuck with kids. I dreaded going to class because he would humiliate you any chance he got in front of the whole class. Once he made both me and my sister cry in the same day (she didn't even have him - she's 2 years younger than me!) Anyway he ended up giving me a B that semester because he knew he had fucked up big time. He was short, too, so I think he had the Napoleon complex.

I hate physics because of him.
