My problems were at home, so probably not a lot haha!

My least favourite teacher was a math/PE teacher because he would very obviously favour the jocks/sporty boys and ignore the nerdy boys, and then was super creepy to the pretty girls, and ignored the normal looking girls. He was fired after I graduated for inappropriateness with the girls, go figure.

My favourite teacher was an English/Lit teacher. She was no nonsense, wasn't afraid to give the class a piece of her mind if we were acting up. She had such a commanding voice, for such a short woman ๐Ÿ˜‚. BUT, if we asked how her adult daughters were, she could go on and on about them. She taught the curriculum wonderfully, provided context for what it meant, and explained what we needed to do for each task/test.

Another favourite teacher was the science/physics teacher. He made every class fun, he was funny and never discriminated against any student for their gender. It was interactive, and he loved showing us concepts with physical objects/chemicals. He was easy to talk to and ask questions, because he never gave off the vibe that he thought we were dumb.
