But she was an overly irritating bitch anyway. I still feel bad though…

Every day in class though we would hear about how we need to be more “respectful.” We need to show her more respect? She needs to show us some respect in return. If a member of our class did something out of line even once, they’re suddenly on her shit list for all eternity.

Today we were going over the answers on the final. We felt as if one of the questions had the wrong answer. The question asked why farmers used pesticides. Her answer key said it was to “control plant disease,” but everyone in our class put it was to “increase crop yield.” She wanted evidence from the book. I brought the book to her and pointed out a sentence that said something along the lines of “Farmers use certain chemicals to ward off insects that decrease crop yield.” So naturally, we would think that the use of pesticides is to increase crop yield. She kept insisting that “certain chemicals” does not equal pesticides and that she needs to read the whole section on pesticides in order to find the answer. A classmate informed her that reading the entire section wasn’t necessary and that “certain chemicals” does refer to pesticides because the header for that section was “agricultural pesticides,” with the subheader being “reasons for use.”

Somehow she took us informing her the wrong way (like she always does) and went off on a rant about how the answer key is provided to her by corporate and that there’s a whole process she has to go to in order to correct an answer - because the answers on the answer key are always 100% correct. 9__9 She then tells us that if we have a problem, we should contact corporate about it because the classroom isn’t “like a jungle where you can do whatever you want.”

One of my classmates smiles to himself because he found her answer to be ridiculous. He didn’t laugh out loud or disrupt the class. Of course, she took his smile the wrong way as well and tells him to pack his things and get out of the class. He asks why, and she tells him it’s because he was being disrespectful. He says that he doesn’t understand how he was being disrespectful but packs his things anyway, and she just elevates her voice, repeating herself, saying that he needs to pack his things and get out for being disrespectful.

On his way out a classmate quietly asks him what he did because she didn’t see anything. “Why are you talking to him?” she asks her. “I was just asking him what he did since I didn’t understand,” she replies. The teacher then raises her voice again. “Were you not listening to our conversation? I just said it out loud. He was being disrespectful and he needs to get out of the class.”

The classmate sitting next to her comes to her defense, saying that she was just asking so there’s no need to be mad. “Are you being disrespectful too? Do you want to get of class and talk to the director as well?” Now this is the classmate she’s been picking on ever since she started teaching us and apparently this was the last straw for him.

“I think I will,” he tells her (in a surprisingly calm tone,) and stands up to leave. That’s when the teacher says that she’s had enough, tells everyone to get out of the classroom and go on a ten minute break. She goes upstairs just to find that the program director hasn’t come in to school yet. But apparently she quit.

About an hour later as we’re sitting in the classroom by ourselves she comes in saying, “I just resigned thank to you guys. I tried.” Really? Was blaming us necessary at all?

When she leaves, our first term instructor comes to talk to us and teach us for the rest of the day. We vent our concerns to her and even she was surprised at our second term instructor’s accusations because to her, we were a really great class.

Wow this is getting into a rant lol… I don’t expect anyone to read all this.

But omigoodnessIhatethatwoman. She never outright attacked me - in fact, she said that I was a really good student and she wishes the rest of the class were like me. (Hah I am not a good student… Not with her teaching.)

There were many many maaannnnyyy other incidents prior to this. Such as yesterday, when she was teaching us about IV calculations. She asked someone to answer example #2. It was worded a bit differently than example #1 so he was a little confused. She then goes off about how he needs to pay more attention because even “seven or eight year olds can figure out such a problem.” Hah yeah right.

Ugh I’d rant more but whatever. It’s over with anyway.
