The Classification of the ‘Teacher Race’

The teaching profession has the same basic outline, to inform and inspire. There is more to it though! Teachers come in all different personalities, from strict to over-lenient, from temperamental to calm, and from good humored to ill-tempered.

Firstly, strict teachers have traits like: ONE bathroom pass the entire trimester, no water on the desk when you take tests, or the ‘You’d better be dying if you even think of missing a test’ attitude. On the other side, (the extreme opposite of the above) is the over-lenient teachers. They have traits like: the tendency to put kids at a computer and leave them there the entire trimester, easily swayable by the students into things like using notes on tests, when it was not planned, or the ‘Hey man, it’s your grade’ attitude.

Other personalities include the temperamental and calm teachers. Temperamental teachers will throw staplers at students when they are in the way of the T.V., slam the door and scream ‘SHUT UP!!!’ when the student talk too much, and by the end of the hour, half or more of their class has been sent to the principal or are sitting in the hall. Calm teachers are those who sit and wait patiently as students scream and throw books at each other, read a book when the fist fight starts, and smiles politely as the super-intendent ends up in the room pulling one student off the other. They also don’t get too mad at students who disrupt the class in a normal way either.

The last example is the good-humored and the ill-tempered educationalists. The good-humored one will laugh when a student complains (about reading the book Candide, of course) for the twenty-hundredth time. He or she will tell their students that a test is worth thirty thousand points in a desperate attempt to make them do their homework. She will also sigh and give a defeated laugh as the power-point she had worked on for the ENTIRE weekend is shot down by just about every student in the ELECTIVE class. On the other hand, are the ill-tempered teachers. They will grab a student’s headphones and pull the students along with them as they try and take the distraction away. These teachers are a lot like the temperamental personality, the only difference being the random acts of anger instead of the small reasons the temperamental teachers may have.

It can be said that there are many, many personality traits that I have not reviewed in this essay, all in their own way different and frightening. But they are all needed in shaping our future and the future of the children ahead of us. And we all… or at least most of us… appreciate the sacrifices these people make in there home and social lives.

The End
