The Coolest Teacher.
<div class="IPBDescription">EVER.</div> In 9th and 10th grade, I had the privelege of having this guy as my history teacher. Now let's compare him with other teachers.
1) Most teachers that keep a stack of magazines in the room have stuff like Popular Science, Gamepro, and other stuff like it.
This guy, had the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues, Biking mags, Hotrod Magazine, and Air Combat.
2) Most teachers would refrain from telling students, which girls in the grade they found attractive.
This guy, would tell you who he thought had the nice curves. (note: this was 10th grade, he found Freshmen nauseating. Most of us do)
3) Most teachers go to places like the Grand Canyon and Washington DC for vacations.
This guy, went to Russia and went partying with Russian Armed Forces members. He told me one time he was in a drinking contest with a Spetznaz. He said he won. I don't know.
4) Most teachers drive mini-vans, coupes, and other family vehicles.
This guy, drove a Harley Davidson Fatboy XL.
5) Should a teacher have a disability, they never mention it.
This guy had a prosthetic leg and joked about it. He was riding his Honda Shadow one night, and a drunk guy slammed into him and ran his leg over, so it had to be amputated. He got enough money from the lawsuit to not only purchase his prosthetic one, but his Harley Davidson. On the day before Christmas break, he took off his leg and started doing a jig with one leg. One time, I was being a smartalek in class, he threatened to beat me with his fake leg.
6) Most teachers that play music in class, play Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach.
This guy, played AC/DC, Metallica, Van Halen, and Ozzy Ozbourne.
7) Teachers RARELY let you play games in class.
This guy let us have LAN tourneys of Counter-Strike, Operation Flashpoint, Ghost Recon, Black Thorn, Soldier of Fortune, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein. We used the school LAN, and since my school was HUGE, (5000+) we had an abundance of PCs. Oh man. Flashpoint was so fun. I played the game since release, it was so fun sniping my fellow class mates with the SVD or M21. This guy even JOINED us. And he is was the only guy to out snipe me in OFP. If we were together on a sniper team, we would totally rock!
This is NO joke. This guy really did this stuff, and he is still the coolest guy ever to live. And if you don't believe it (Many people I told this to still don't) well.. that is YOUR problem. I wish I still lived in Texas...

dude that's an awesome story. it's cool to have had a teacher like that, ever.
i mean...
OPERATION FLASHPOINT!!!!!
AIEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
i wish i could have lived in texas then, too.
Not likely. The one thing I've never been able to do was to drink a Russian Spetznaz under the table. You'd swear their mothers put vodka in their bottles instead of milk.

can't blame em fer havin that kinda endurance. the closest thing to milk they could get woulda been irish cream.
I wish teachers would be more open-minded about something other than school syllabus >:\
Damned, beat me to it.

Umm, most teachers don't want to end up in prison for perving on their students!
Yeah, fun and games is all good but if you learn nothing, that's worse than having a strict teacher.
I had 1 teacher back in school who was "cool", i learnt nothing and he got fired for teaching nobody anything, good riddance to him i say.

That has to be the most stupid thing a teacher has done since Mr Acs went on the Year 9 camping trip to France wearing denim shorts that were 2 inches long and a woolly jumper.
You might think its cool, wait till you screw up your exams, drop out of college and end up cleaning urinals for a living.
Well i can't wait to see him get fired and unable to teach again for doing nothing.
Even GREAT TEACHER ONIZUKA (Yes, it is necessary for it to be in capitals <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->) tought morals and the occasional lesson. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
i'd say i got a good Math Teacher, first of all he is good at teaching - and he is also a nice guy....
a Good teacher is one who:
- Listens to his Students, and understands their problems(be it school or personal)
- has respect for his/her students (this is the basic "rule")
- can connect to the students, very connected to the "listens..." thingy...
but then a good student is one who:
- is active in the lessons - dont just sit a lesson over, get that finger up in the air and add to the lesson, better for you and the other students.
- is prepared for the lessons - read the texts you have to, if you don't the lesson will just be ruined, and often as a backup the teacher switches to Grammar or similar...
- has respect for other Students and the teachers - listen to your teachers and other students, give them both a helping hand if you can.
- has energy for a lesson/doesnt have "prejudice" towards a specific class(ex. German) - since the more negative you think about a class the worse it will be, think positive think of it as a challenge that will help you in the future - you are here to learn not to *sigh*.
- doesnt expect the teacher to do everything for them(some students expect the teacher to just give them a "Math-potion +3")
yea i just had about "what is a good X" in school....
Other AP teachers would want you to figure out a problem on your own, so would he, but he'd help you with it, give you a hint as to which equation to use, but he never gave out answers (you don't learn anything that way).
He always had interesting physics related stories (well, maybe all of them weren't interesting but knowing how much torque it takes to nail a spike in for a railway tie is...uhh, useful or something).
He took his own time to teach light, nuclear physics and quantum mechanics in early morning sessions so that students would have the information for the AP Physics test.
He always wanted to be efficient with the lesson scheduling...he despised breaks and snow days... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> .
He was also one of the football coaches.
I guess there are reasons you win the golden apple award. He loves his physics...a lot...
The teacher I was talking about Drives a Harley as well.
This guy, played AC/DC, Metallica, Van Halen, and Ozzy Ozbourne. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
