Currently reading the book. I love the "schoolteacher in space" thing; not that that is all there is to the book. It's also one of the best dramatic applications of partial amnesia I've seen.

No spoilers please.

I agree, although reading the book there were many moments I thought, how can a schoolteacher know that stuff. And yeah, Andy Weir tried to make it more believable by giving the character a background in academia and a doctor in molecular science. But it still felt strange at certain points in the story, especially in the flashbacks.
