Ego Eram Reputo 2,327 Report post Posted January 20, 2010 Ugh. I hate doing "self-assessments" at work. At least the rough draft is done. Just change the date from last year - no one will notice Actually, I got away with that for a few years until they changed the form. Dang. I used to quote Hannibal Lecter: "You gonna dissect me with this blunt little tool?" We're presently going down the road to CPD - Continuous Professional Development. Think: audited logbook of your work. ARGH :!: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An onslaught of others: It's not f***ing sped up you idiot! Do you know how hard it would be to play it slow and speed it back up?!? _____ Wooow... Just expressing an opinion, sheesh.

yy10 5 Report post Posted January 27, 2010 Teacher asked me a math question and I couldn't answer it. Teacher asks me another math question and I couldn't answer it again. He scolds at me and says I'm so stupid and can't apply the things I've learned to those questions. He humiliated me in front of the whole class. WTF.

Turn it back on him and say, "Well, if I don't understand it, you haven't explained it properly to me. Are you saying that you're a bad teacher?" Notice that you won't be calling him a bad teacher.

I don't know about you, but in my school, such a response would only lead to things getting worse. They'll either say stop being cheeky, stop the attitude, stop the stroppiness, or things will get escalated to the level that you will be sent out of the room or get shouted at such a level, health and safety officials would classify it as a safety hazard. :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BoltBait 2,460 Report post Posted January 27, 2010 Then, you will have a chance to tell your story to the principal. This should result in the teacher getting in trouble. How is this a bad thing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vista? 1 Report post Posted January 27, 2010 Even that might not work exactly since the Principle of our school (or rather headteacher) is a "bald midget" (that is a quote, not my own words!) and to be quite honest, entering his office needs good reason if you're a student. That being said, a strong worded letter of complaint that I write and get my parents to sign would be my preferred weapon. Then assuming I get no response or inadequate response, I would take it up to the local authorities that oversee the running of schools or perhaps the relevant government department that oversees schools. :twisted: :twisted: Fortunately, I haven't needed to resort to such actions in my secondary school so far... :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vista? 1 Report post Posted January 27, 2010 You're either being sarcastic in which case I'm struggling to detect it or you're being genuine which would be quite shocking since in many exams, I tend to over complicate the question, especially in the ECDL course, my lack of common sense/logic results in me making stupid, laughable mistakes.
