We all know those professors who get on our nerves, the ones who actually do their job well, and the ones who make you cry in the bathroom.

1. Professors With Tenure

These are the professors who can get away with anything, including cancelling and/or skipping classes. They can also get away with not teaching you anything and forgetting to print your tests.

2. Push-Overs

Mean-spirited students (usually freshmen) love to mess with these professors and get from them all that they can. These professors are also easily persuaded because of their insecurities.

3. Easy Graders

These professors, obviously, grade papers, sometimes even tests, a little too nicely. You are in their class, and you know that you did not deserve that good of a grade.

4. Professors Who Show Grace

This type of professor is one of the best, in my opinion. They are willing to work with you, even if you have fallen behind and skipped too many classes. They can tell which students are actually going through sh*t and want to help them in a fair way.

5. Hard-Asses

These are professors who don’t mess around, but you respect them. They may piss you off from time to time, but overall, you know you have learned a lot from them and appreciate their fair (yet tough) ways.

6. Professors Who Shut Down Students

These professors may have a special place in...well, you know where. Unlike hard-asses, they are not fair, and their teaching methods are not very effective. You have no respect for them, and in class, you may have seen a student blink away tears a couple times.

7. Cute Professors (not like that...maybe like that)

A cute professor can be a cute, little, old person who you kind of feel sorry for. They can also be on the younger side, make intense eye contact with students, or make certain people not come to class when they cannot “get ready” in enough time.

8. Actually Good Teachers

These professors can have various personality traits. However, all of them get the job done. They love teaching and their students. They show respect and have confidence.

9. Fun Professors

You may or may not get anything done in these professors’ classes. They may love showing movies (aka, they are lazy), playing games “for bonus points on the test,” cancelling class for independent field trips, or crack actually funny jokes! They may also play cool music during class.

10. Creeps

Thankfully, there are not many of these, but they usually are male. They may stare at female students in skirts, keep their legs spread wide, and give the “better looking” students mysterious curves on tests.
