are teachers supposed to be angry at students when they are unable to answer the questions?

That depends... if the students hadn't done their homework or weren't paying attention and this is why they didnt know it, then the teacher might easily become upset.

If an educator is not seeking continued professional growth then that must be a personal decision they have made.  In my opinion if they are not seeking continued professional growth, then they are in the wrong field.  Alot of times it is just not the teachers fault that they have low studednt achievement!!  This could be an either/or situation.  It could be either the teacher is really not putting their all into teaching or the student refuses to learn.  So I feel that both the students and teachers are at fault.  Who can really say.  Do you understand??  I hope this helps you.

There are a lot of rules in school. Fortunately, the teachers don't know them all. Play by the rules, make them regret they even considered a detention. For instance, if you are really good at one object, make the teacher ask you questions about the class insted of detention. Then, if you answer corectly, you win the battle in front of you r colleagues. After that, the teacher can't give you a detention because he/she would look bad in front of the rest of the class.

I think these days, teachers are being forced to "teach towards the test" only.  In my state specifically, being an intellectually well-rounded student means nothing as long as your state test scores look good.  Previously, students were learning to successfully function in society, as well as to do well on tests, but the inverse seems to be in practice today.  No one is teaching courtesy, chivalry, or common sense to kids these days, which I think are imperative to becoming good citizens.  Teachers, in my opinion, are really getting a raw deal now.  Reproaching students by calling parents or punishing them doesn't seem to be working either.  OK, getting back to the teaching topic... one excellent teaching technique is to become as personable with students as possible.  That, in turn, will give students an initiative to learn.  I have had some horrible experiences with teachers that just don't care and have expressed this to students.  I definitely think that teachers these days are on the defensive and this a stark contrast from 20 years ago when the teacher acted more like a second mother to students than a disciplinarian only.

yes the teachers and the parents are to blame for that one. But the teachers should have known that they couldn't read but these days they just let them pass to the next grade for the next teacher to deal with.

No!  Take my hubby for example...last semester, he had a teacher that he absolutely hated.  If given the right to he would've evaluated this teacher horribly.  Then, the teacher "retained him".  He couldn't go ahead with the program until he re-took this teachers class and passed it (he only missed passing by about 2 pts).  Hubby hated this teacher.\n\nNow, he's re-taking the class.  He's doing great and has come to realize that this is an awesome teacher that only wants his students to know and study the material.  This teacher has become a great mentor.\n\nAll I'm saying is that if you pay based on student evaluations, where's the checks & balances system in that?  Shouldn't it be based on our work and not potentially open to personal opinions?  It seems to me that something of the sort could happen.  There's plenty of awesome teachers that are just "hard" but sometimes the teachers some students can't get along with are the best.

I had a math teacher, I actually felt sorry for him. He could not control the class at all. He would write on the board and there would be spit wads all over the board and in his hair. It was impossible to learn anything in his class. Some people just don't belong in the teaching profession.

You can give it another try.  In some cases, the teacher is the problem.  Maybe with any luck the new teacher will help her out, instead of working against her

My son's first experience in school in Kindergarten got him one of those teachers.  We butted heads all the time.  She labeled him a trouble maker because he didn't stay on task and wanted to move faster than the class did.  I told her that she was wrong so I was the demanding parent.\n\nTeachers come in all types and some are just not good or have worn out their welcome.  Some fear change.  Some are threatened easily and when there is a smart student they feel it and react badly.\n\nIf there is an issue that she is wrong about (or any teacher in the future too) bring in proof that you are right in writing.  I did and, yes it made my teacher MAD, but the other students then started to question her and she was forced to prove herself the rest of the way through.  You may not be the favorite in class with that teacher but you will be respected by your fellow students.  If the teacher threatens to fail you for speaking up (like mine did) go higher up (principal, dean, etc) with the proof.\n\nYou're an A+ student.  Let her know it!

" I'm sorry, teacher, I am irresponsible and I did not complete my homework. "

While I agree with you remember teachers are on a schedule and have guidelines that they are expected to follow too. The pressure is on them and you.\nThey in general (I know there are some exceptions to the rule) want you to succeed. And they will do whatever they can to help you. But they have someone they need to answer to too.\n\nWho wants someone to fail in life? And besides that if your scores are low what does that say about their teaching?

Teachers are there to help you - I asked my health teacher about a problem with one of my friends, and she pointed me in the right direction, so don't be scared to talk to them!\n\n**I mean my friend was having a personal problem - so I asked the teacher.... I wasn't talking like a cat fight with one of them, it was something different....

talk to your mom and have her speak to the teacher...this teacher may need some anger-management classes or something.\n\nor, you could write a friendly little letter to her and leave it in her mailbox...:\n\ndear ms. -----\n\ni understand that teaching must be a very hard job and i hope that i am not causing you any more stress or further problems.  i have to tell you that i am a bit concerned because you seem to scold me a great deal.  i am not even sure what i am doing wrong.  could we please sit down and talk to each other about what i am doing that might be bothering you?  i really don't want to bother you and it makes me upset when you scold me.\n\nthank you -

I've dealt with a lot of mean teachers and I know they can't get fired for that. My Freshman science teacher was mean to only Freshman. Now, whenever she sees me, she's always extremely nice. Some teachers are just mean because they don't like their jobs. Nonetheless, if your teacher wasn't teaching properly or was beating the kids, that would be a good ticket out of there. But just "being mean" could be a  matter of perspective and I don't think there's anything you can do.
