Nostalgia just hit me or rather hateful memories. Now don't get me wrong I enjoyed high school very much and miss it too. However there was something or rather someone I can't forget. This was a history teacher who I will mention as Ms. A. Now junior year is an important year that most colleges if not all colleges look. During my freshmen and sophomore years I manage to pull off some okay grades. However has god forsaken me to be stuck with this teacher for my most important year.
It would seem I'm being over dramatic but this is the type of teacher who has colleagues that know very well how she treats her students. She argues with parents during parent teacher conferences and even parents who fail to believe their son or daughter sees for themselves how terrifying this teacher is. She gives out quizzes if we answered or are unable to answer her questions. If we can't answer her questions she would write the answer in large font herself in our notebooks filling up a whole page full of notes. She even made a student cry. Now each class is 45 minutes long it takes 5 minutes for her to give out her exams and we have to give in our exams 5 minutes before class is over thus giving us a total of 35 minutes to take an exam with 35 multiple choice and an essay.
I only managed to pass her class barely every marking period and she failed practically 55% of her students. There were some instances when someone tried to push her down the stairs. There was also a time when one of her old students popped into the classroom and cursed at her then ran off. She chased him down the hallway and had security guards track him however the guards couldn't even take her seriously. She became extra strict that day but it was worth it. High school were the days and there were some ups and downs but I hope one day I can go back and reenact that same moment.
