To The English Teacher Suspended For Threatening A Fellow Student

Don't be a teacher if you aren't willing to do more than the bare minimum.

To The English Teacher Suspended For Threatening A Fellow Student

Dear anonymous,

Not only are you the worst English teacher I have ever had, you are the worst teacher I have ever had. PERIOD.

My experience in your classroom was by far the worst I have ever participated in. May I add, I was an AP student all my 4 years in high school, and this was my first regular English class...so my expectations for my teachers are extremely high. Let's begin with your attitude. You act like teaching your students is a chore, and you don't even pretend to enjoy your job.

Do you realize that your attitude impacts your students? You continuously choose to be a negative influence on every student you teach. You always wondered why your students constantly disrespect you, skip your class, and don't do your homework. Why would they show any effort if you won't?

Secondly, let's discuss your teaching style, which is close to none. Rarely did you ever go in front of the class and teach. Most days consisted of you sitting in your chair while we did worksheets. STUDENTS CANNOT LEARN THROUGH WORKSHEETS! We need lectures, notes, and interaction with each other. But no.

I mean, I know this was a regular class and it shouldn't have a giant workload like an honors or AP class, but you did the bare minimum (if not that, less) to make sure you still had a job. I didn't learn a single thing while taking your class because you were too lazy to teach more than what you were required to. Is this what all regular classes are like? Only teaching students basics to barely get by?

Not to mention, you always yelled at us if you ever saw a sign of life in your classroom. A key part of learning in any classroom environment is student-to-student interaction. What did you find so wrong about that?

Thirdly and finally, you weren't even a likable person to be around. You're barely a person at all, you just seem like a shell. At some points, I thought that you were a sociopath because you have no remorse for any of the hurtful things you say to students regarding a disability, their physical appearance, their thoughts and opinions, their hobbies, etc.

Remember that one time when you threatened a student and got suspended for three weeks? Yeah, you should have been terminated from the school. I have no idea how you're still teaching. If you're not gonna apply yourself to make school a nice experience for your students, then you shouldn't be a teacher at all. You should be ashamed for all that you've done, and you have not done. I hope one day it hits you, but it probably won't.

Sincerely,

Vashti

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
