Nostalgia - Types of Teachers

Hey folks, it feels good to be back in the business!
On this auspicious day of Guru Poornima, lets take some time and thank every person who knowingly or unknowingly gave us great life lessons. Exactly!! our Teachers..
Teachers are the ones who influence us in every phase of our life, be it school, college or tutions. And you might not want to admit it, but you do miss your teachers.After all, for better or for worse, they helped shape you into what you are today.  From the super cool ones to the ‘hitlers’ we’ve all seen them all. Here are a few teacher stereotypes we may have encounter at some point during our student life.

This is to bring a kind note to all my readers that  the points expressed below are  from perspective and experience of the author. None of the points given below are intended towards hurting anyone’s sentiments whatsoever. 

The Army General

They are the most strict and ruthless person you ever come across. Lovers of discipline and sincerity.
You talk  and you are punished. You don’t answer and you are still punished. They have the eagle eyes and would notice even the slightest movement.

Anything and everything that you do in their lecture only leads to you becoming an ‘outstanding’ student. Like it or not, this is one teacher you often imagine having devil horns, scaring the hell out of you.

First Love

Sigh! This teacher is a complete heart-throb! Whether or not he/she teaches wonderfully, attendance in his/her class is always 100%. Just a glimpse of his/her would make many go weak in knees and make your day *VIOLIN PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND*.

First Love for a reason.Their age is immaterial. Extremely well dressed and highly graceful, this teacher will surely keep you star struck for years!

Overtimer

You’ll always have this one teacher who continues to teach even after the damn lecture is over. This type of teacher are the real reason why students bunk their lectures.

If you try to oppose or take objection, they make you go silent just by their look.An absolute bloodsucker and a true tormentor. For lecture is long and full of terrors!!

The Slow poke

Loading… Loading… Loading and stuck at 98%. This type of teacher is always behind schedule. They’ll enter class 20 minutes late and will teach at a pace that gives you enough time to talk, draw doodles and what not!

What’s more? Once they realize that it’s the last lecture, they’ll rush through 50% of the portion in a single class. That’s 2% of understanding for you. 

The Comedian

You’ll love this teacher type for their entertaining classes which keep you glued to your seats. Best type of person in the school, fun loving and sense of humor.

Born with an epic sense of comic timing, this teacher will teach you a thing or two while you attend comedy nights! They know exactly how to find your pulse and hang on to it.

The Express Train

Faster than a jet plane, Usain Bolt and even the Light itself, blink your eyes and Zip! Zap! Zoom! And the portion is over!

Before you even understand which page they were on, this teacher has already moved on. You’ll need complete focus and dedication if you want to catch anything this teacher presents.

The Re-locator

Nightmare for the back benchers, this type of teacher would always shift the naughtiest student to the front benches.

Shifting would always lead to chaos and much needed break, while the first benchers would have time of their lives.

The Crowd Favorite

Best. Teacher. Ever.
Every time you see this teacher, you’ll have this feeling of meeting your friend. The one who actually added meaning to our schooling years & gave us some brilliant academic and life lessons which we’ll always cherish. We still remember them, miss them & have actually cried while saying goodbye to them.

NO MATTER HOW THEY WERE,  THEY BROUGHT OUT THE BEST IN  US!!
With this I sign off, leaving all my readers recollecting the very fond memories of teachers and school.

Happy Guru Poornima
