1. (Teacher) (2433↑, 583↓)
A person who cares enough about abusive and ungrateful teens to work for crappy pay and long hours while hoping someday students mature enough to realize how lucky they are to have someone who gives a shit about them.

My teacher may have been a bitch sometimes, but she never gave up on me and I'm happy about that.

Good teachers are people dedicated to the education of students in their classrooms and to the institutions in which they work. (Unfortunately, many of the contributors to this term don't seem to have encountered many good teachers. However, don't give up on learning because eventually several good teachers will show up.)

If you can read this, thank a teacher.

3. (teacher) (635↑, 137↓)
Good teacher = Someone that cares about her/his students and tries there hardest to have there students leave at the end of the school year knowing something that they taught them.And get paid crap only like $35,000 an year. Bad teacher = A teacher who don't give a crap about there students and give like 4 hours of homework. And for some reason it seems like they get paid more.

Good teacher ="You know if you EVER need to talk to someone I'm always here for you." Bad teacher =" Get over yourself and get to work or you will be in detention tonight. You stupid teenager."

4. (teacher) (648↑, 242↓)
A person who works his/her butt off preparing for students and trying to help them get a head start in life. They work for little pay, and are spoken poorly about by people ignorant of their cause. As with all people, some care more than others. But they still do more than the average onlooker observes.

A teacher can be found planning lessons, grading papers, researching activities, going to meetings, calling homes, greeting people, tolerating bullcrap, rationalizing, destressing, parenting for parents who don't know how to or don't give a damn about parenting.

5. (Teacher) (277↑, 161↓)
Teachers are those people who ask you to find solutions for problems you haven't known before.

The teacher asks: Why is a parallelogram not the same as a trapezoid? -\> Is that really important??????? -\> Do we really need to know that in our future??

6. (teacher) (215↑, 126↓)
A person whose life calling is in the perpetuation of the body of knowledge and experience gained through thousands of years of civilization. Often attempts to impart said knowledge despite resistance from students who do not care, parents who do not care, administrators who care about the wrong things and other people such as religious fanatics and governments who want their own agenda satisfied. Teachers are passionate about their subject matter, and given a class of students who actually want to learn, there is no end to what can be accomplished. Your typical student nowadays do not understand the one basic fact...without education, you go no further in life. Education is the cornerstone of a civilization. If people were given this value from birth, our poor country would not be in such a sorry state today. Teachers do not give homework to punish or ruin your life. They give it so that you can gain the practice you need to master subject matter. You might not see how you can use this matter later in life, but unless you happen to have a crystal ball (and know how to use it), you really have no idea when you might need it. One of the most important things you can learn in school is time management, so that you can both get your work done AND have a social life, rather than wasting time complaining and end up with no time to do either. Teachers are not people who failed at other things, all of the teachers I know and work with chose teaching as their career outright. We are teachers FIRST, in other words. Our current educational system is not perfect, it's not even great, it needs a lot of fixing up, but until our country as a whole begins valuing education and the role it serves in boosting the economic and social well-being of the nation, it will continue to get short-shrift, and parents will not encourage their children in a positive manner to participate in the process that will ultimate lead them to their adulthood.

"Man, that teacher really sucks\!" "Well, if you shut your mouth and actually did your work, you might do well and change your mind\!"

7. (Teacher) (179↑, 116↓)
Someone who teaches students at a school, whether it be preschool or high school. Teachers can vary in niceness from the best teacher who gives almost no homework and lets you do anything to a teacher that constantly screams at the class and gives assloads of homework. Teachers, even if they seem mean, are not bad people. Yelling or other disciplines are just their way of doing things. I am not one who likes teachers yelling, but it's not their fault. If you're stuck in a class full of assholes and teeny boppers with no common sense and never shut the fuck up for 5 seconds, even the nicest teachers may lose it, maybe more frequently than others. It all depends on your classmates, and even you.

Teachers are good people that want you to learn and be able to get a good future, but if your asshole classmates fuck up class every day, that goal gets pushed farther and farther away...

8. (Teacher) (86↑, 34↓)
A man or woman who stands up in front of the classroom on the first day of school and tells you they teach "differently" than all the teachers you have had in the past. They then proceed to give you work to do from your textbook.

Teacher: I teach differently than most teachers you have had, we do a lot of fun activities in here. Now open up your books to page 267 and answer questions 1-5.

9. (teacher) (63↑, 29↓)
Someone who beleives themself to be smarter than you and usually is trying to educate younger or less intellectual people.

I hate the way most teachers arent actually as smart as their students.

10. (Teacher) (49↑, 18↓)
First of all, lets make it clear, i am talking about a GOOD teacher. Bad teacher that just hangout around in the class waiting to get paid dont deserve a Definition.And the definition is not for Kindergarden or Elementary teachers (good) teachers are a group of hard working people. They waste years of their life trying to teach teens that doesn't even give a fuck about anything that happens in school. They sometimes stay overnight just to plan their lesson for tomorrow, but whats the point when most of them don't even give a damn bout what's going on in class? But they still plan it, they hope that one day those self-centered and ignorant teens will appreciate their hard-work and learn for once. They get a low pay, with their knowledge its pretty sure they can get a better job and higher wage. But they wont, why? Because they want to educate and make the teens have a brighter future, grow up into some one useful to the society. Despite their low wage, those kind ones still buy supplies for their students with their OWN money, some students not only DON'T appreciate, they take it for granted, break all the stuff just to look "cool" or like a "bad-ass rebel", to impress his range of friends. They even get insulted at times, because they gave work for the students to do. If you dont want to do work, TELL ME WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVEN COME TO SCHOOL???\!\!\! or they simply just want to say something bad about the teacher. They talk about their looks, what they wear and everything ranging from what they eat to their lifestyle. Its not as if you look that Perfect yourself. Admit it, no one does, no one looks perfect,every one have different opinions about things. I can go on and on about things that happen to teachers, the hard working ones that never wanted much in return. They just wanted to "Give". Yes, i am not stating ALL the teens, not every teen are like this, there are also hard working ones that appreciate and give thank that thy can learn. The whole chunk of words above only apply to some. I am only 14 myself, hereby, i thank all the REAL teachers that chose this job and always was always there for us, no matter how horrible we were some times

(The begin of the year, TeacherA bought new supplies for her students) TeacherB: *knocks* i need to to talk to you TeacherA: Alright, class work on your "______" till i come back ignorantTeenA: haha i'ma gonna break all her pencils\! Rip her coloured construction paper haha, shes so dumb\! ignorantTeenB: Haha yeah, thats sick man\! get me some\! TeacherA:*comes back* who broke these? *everyone keeps quiet* ignorantTeenA: not me, i was working all the time ignorantTeenB: its that kid over there\! (Drama)

Your third parent. Although they boast a degree of education, sadly there are too many that can't even teach, and you wonder what they've been doing for 4-6 years in 'education' college, whatever crappy one it was.

A teacher is someone who attempts to teach in a [school]. These people are paid terrible amounts, which may be why some of them don't like children. There are three types of teachers - good teachers, neutral teachers and evil teachers. Features of a good teacher include (but are not limited to) - having a sense of humour, an interest in the pupils (but not sexually) and their interests, forgiving, helpful, doesn't give out a lot of homework. Features of a neutral teacher include (but are not limited to) having an okay-sense of humour, non-threatening, gives an okay amount of homework, sometimes helps, may show favouritism. Features of an evil teacher include (but are not limited to) - no sense of humour, vindictive (never forgives), gives out lots of homework, shouts a lot, helps only if required, hates school children, expects school children to understand all things taught off by heart, very strict, wishes that the good old times would come back so that they could cane you if you were naughty.

An example of a good teacher: Pupil: "Hey, sir, I didn't get the homework yesterday because I wasn't in." Sir: "Ah, okay. *Gives homework* Why weren't you in?" Pupil: "I was ill, sir." Sir: "Aww, what did you have?" Pupil: "Flu, sir." Teacher: "Poor thing. Well, at least you're better now, having the flu is hell" Pupil: "Sir, I don't understand the homework." Teacher: "Here, let me help :D" *Helps with homework* Example of a neutral teacher: Pupil: "Sir, where was Shakespere buried? It doesn't say in the book..." Sir: "It does. Look on page 64 :)" Pupil: "Sir, what does 'illiterate' mean?" Sir: "Look in the dictionary." Pupil: "It doesn't say, sir." Sir: "You haven't even opened the book yet." Pupil: "Oh. Ta, sir." Here is an example of an evil teacher. Pupil: "Sir--" Sir: "What?\!" Pupil: "I didn't do the homework becau--" Sir: "Why the hell not?\!" Pupil: "Because I wasn't in" Sir: "Well you should have got it off a friend\! Detention\!" Pupil: "That's not fair\!" Sir: "Talking back?\! For that, it's doubled\!" Pupil: "I hate you, sir." Sir: "I don't care. Now go to your seat and finish your work you stupid child\!"

A person who doesn't get respected in the real world so he resorts to making kids lives miserable. They get paid NOT to kill you. They think their job is so wonderful, so pristine, and holy that they raise themselves up to be gods. When in reality, they are a civil service worker that takes more college credits. You are not the best at something if you can teach it, that just means you can talk to yourself, as a split-personality, immature kid.

Teachers (see [pedophile]) are sluts who got divorced or married a dumbass and who can't afford to live, so they take the first job they can find and take out all their anger on the students. Let's see, how so? Let's look at an example: Kid: Mrs. Anders-- Teacher: WHAT? Kid: Oh I uh, just wanted to know if-- Teacher: Did I give you permission to get out of your seat? Kid: Well no-- Teacher: That's it, you're getting written up. Kid: But I just wanted to ask you something. Teacher: WHAT??? Kid: Can I please have yesterday's homework? Teacher: No. Now take this conduct slip and go to the office. "Hmm, well, maybe she was just having a hard day", you may be thinking. You might even be thinking it's what she teaches that matters. After all, the reason why we have school is to learn, right? If this was the case, the teachers would be able to explain everything they teach in a nice, easy-to-understand way. They would be showing it's OK to make mistakes because it's a natural part of life and they understand. And that we're all in this together, to learn how nice and fun it is to learn such wonderful things. Instead we have asshats who didn't learn fuck and are just sticking to what the book and curriculum say. They just tell you bits of information and expect you to put it all together in order. Then they give you homework and expect the homework to be what teaches you. But they didn't actually look at the homework themselves, and so the homework has what the teacher didn't cover at all because he was either lazy or procrastinated or some shit. And let's say we forget some homework. It's the natural part of life, right? We procrastinated maybe and found later we were just too tired. When we do something like this the teachers make us come up to them and they yell at us. Then they make us feel like idiots by insulting us and humiliating us in front of the class. Teachers can even take it as far as making students call their home and explain what they did. Things like teachers, school, and homework are the reason why we haven't developed time travel yet, or efficient air/solar/water powered cars. Teachers are fuckin' retarded.

Kid: Uh-oh, my computer crashed. Teacher: Well it's your fault. Kid: Why? Teacher: Don't you back-talk to me. Kid: But I wasn't\! Teacher: STOP ARGUING WITH ME. Kid: Well what do I do now? Teacher: You worthless child, you're not going to live a life with this kind of attitude. Some day someone's going to kill you and you know what, I'd be damn happy for whoever does it.
