Today is Teacher Appreciation Day in the US. Do you appreciate your teacher? Probably not. But if they're good then you probably should. After, school can be kind of boring, and so it takes a very special kind of teacher to stop you from falling asleep at your desk every day.
Check out this list, compiled by Bored Panda, for our favorite examples of awesome teachers. Some of them skateboard to work every day, some of them have 'I want to marry Justin Bieber' embossed on their pencils to stop students from stealing them, and some of them confiscate their student's phones just so they can take selfies with them. Let us know which ones are your favorites, and don't forget to tell us all about your own favorite teachers in the comments below. After all, while boring teachers are never remembered, awesome teachers are remembered forever.

This would have messed me up. I would have been so confused and then convince myself I'd answered questions wrong, even though I'd also be pretty sure I got them right. Evil teacher
Bunnies are better!! 7 years ago
Same. On tests after three questions with the same letter in a row I would be convinced I was doing something wrong
Load More Replies... Bunnies are better!! 7 years ago
I don't see how this teacher is awesome, many of his students will be confused and be convinced that they are doing something wrong, even though they are perfectly correct, and perhaps flunk the class. Funny as it may seem to some people, i don't see how this teacher could be one of the awesomest teachers ever
Thomas Hollingshead 7 years ago
Even meaner is if he takes 1 to 4 of the questions and deliberately breaks the pattern, so they are never quite clear if there even is a pattern

I would make all of them B and change the very last one to C just in case a student thinks they figures it out.

I would have changed up a few to see who was really answering them.

Had a teacher made a final true or false test... all answers were false... pure hell
Faith Smith 7 years ago
But once you realized the pattern it would be easy to guess the right answers
Celeste Dugger 7 years ago
True, but for a lot of student they worry that they are doing something wrong and second guess themselves. It's like form b if you keep getting the same answer your going to think you are doing something wrong.

Not really. I've had all types of exams in college and multiple choice can be as hard as the prof want to make it...leaving short answer, fill in the blank, or T/F as your only friend. Some short answer promts/essays are impossible & while i love fill in the blank, i also know kids who hate it and kids who think that T/F will be the death of them. Just depends on how the question is asked. The great thing about a scantron though, is that you get your grade back sooner.
