“You’re weird, start acting your age”. These people are acting real clean, and it makes me sick and tired. You know what’s not weird? It’s coming to the class unprepared. It’s when you enunciate the initial sound F into P. It’s when you commit an obvious ungrammatical during discussions and gets pissed when the students start laughing. It’s like a stand-up comedian giving a pick-up line and expect the audience to cry. It’s when you don’t realize the infinitesimal disparity between you being a complete moron and a shallow-thinking animal. It’s when all the signs tell that your students speak better English than you. What’s not weird is when you fail to recognize the conglomerate information at your fingertips’ disposal, so you can elaborate your lesson and not solely depend on the references written in your prehistoric books. Students deserve a real discussion, and not guessing games. What’s not weird is when you demand respect, for heaven’s sake, respect. And you have a quite class, not because the students are constantly awed by the grandeur of your ideas, but because you are boring them. Because you’re ill-tempered and because you are a traditional educator… I don’t know what these teachers are doing for them to think they are special and good. I’d rather die being the weird one.
