Certain teachers are difficult to forget even years after you graduate. And while some might be unforgettable for all the wrong reasons, others can be someone you admire greatly and remember fondly.
Today, we’re focusing on the latter kind of teachers. The ones who would give you an extension of the deadline when the English paper doesn’t write itself on time, who would draw a funny doodle next to your own funny doodle on a test paper, or who would come up with the best possible reply to an email you might not even remember sending.
If you need proof that such teachers actually exist, scroll down to find a list of some of the best teacher-student interactions on the list below, and see for yourself, just how amazing some teachers are or just how amazing—in every sense of the word—teaching can be.

A Student Emails His Professor While Drunk. Results Are Amazing
I think it's American for 'good meter.' I could be wrong.
Load More Replies...Some teachers, whose actions often speak louder than words, are exceptional people. They can do both lend a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on, if need be, or become professional stand up comedians with their witty remarks when an opportunity arises.
Usually, it’s teachers like these that can really make a difference; and who are remembered years–sometimes even decades—after one graduates from school.
A survey commissioned by Staples and conducted by OnePoll found that out of the 2,000 surveyed Americans, more than four-in-five said that a teacher has made a meaningful impact on their lives, The New York Post reports.
This Is So Great

I am just impressed, but then I know how hard it can be to get a group of children to stay silent.
Wild
When I was in junior high, some of the class would make random noises, and otherwise disrupt the worst teacher we'd ever seen. The room was large and there were a good 32 students in it anyway, so the teacher would yell out, "Who's disturbing my class??" And other classmates would yell at [name of real student in our grade, but not our class] to stop being a jerk. The teacher would regularly yell at (invisible) him and threaten him with detention. Found out named student never even had any of her classes, which I was good, cuz he'd still be in detention.
I foresee a a bright future in politics for each and every one of them.
3 year olds????? Waaaayyyyyy 2 young to be able to come up with that. What in the world have they been watching at home?
According to said survey, as much as 77% of respondents had a favorite teacher; and the former students admitted owing a lot to them. That’s because the educators’ care wouldn’t end once the kids stepped out of the classroom – some teachers would go as far as to call their student to check in after a hard day at school or stay late to help them with homework, which shows just how much they actually care.

Of Course He Has Two Backpacks, That's How He Totes His Goat
IDK bout the city but where I'm at there's goats lambs and baby chicks and ducks that are regularly snuggled into school EDITED to say I saw the typo thought it fit and went with it😁
Load More Replies...Had an 8th grader pull out a box of a dozen donuts she had folded in half so it would fit in her backpack once.
Teacher here: See the goat inside the backpack. Say hello to said goat. Wait for the student's show and tell story. Ask the class to pet and say hello to aforementioned goat. Offer the student a place to leave the goat during the day. Carry on as usual. Say goodbye to goat. If applicable, mention the goat incident in next parents and teachers meeting (make sure to gather evidence). Note: talking from experience involving an autistic spectrum student and a *very* large emotional support bunny rabbit.
Reminds me, once at school I was in thr after school group and a kid had brought a goat to show and tell and let us pet it while we waited, it was amazing, note this kid had his mom there and the goat was in a cage so it was fine
I got in trouble in first, third and sixth grade for bringing three different pets to school. The first one was a box turtle, my mom had to come get her because I got caught. The second one was a kitten I found on the way to school, I got caught because he meowed, mom had to come get him but I got to keep him at home. The third was an almost 3 foot (almost a meter for non-us folk) iguana, my teacher thought it was cool so she stayed in class with us for the rest of the day chilling under the lamp meant for chicks later in the year.
Teacher Asked Her Students To Bring Any Pet Animal Within Reach
They certainly are. But then again, aren't we ALL animals?
Load More Replies...Had a parent/teacher meeting before my kindergartens start of school. He had to present at "show and tell" when class started. The subject he selected? His 3 yo brother that we had brought along.
Well, the 6yo does pet the 2yo now and then, I guess, so not that far away ...
OnePoll’s survey found that the things that teachers seemingly influenced the most were their students’ personal values and morals, as well as their level of education. That’s why it might come as no surprise that just shy of a third of respondents owed their college choice and major choice to a past teacher.
Totally Set Himself Up
Would have answered "there's 25 of you and only one of me, so what are the odds?"
LOL. "25 of you..." assuming it's not a US teacher
Load More Replies...Okay, I DO fart in class as I have a spastic colon. Once during exams I was standing next to the desk of a child named Tshepo (he was naughty so he sat in a single desk alone, which gave me some space to stand) and the fart just came out! So he was quite right when he told people forever after that I farted in his face. I did... but not on purpose.
To be fair, the teacher walked straight into that one. You do not outsmart third graders on the subject of fart jokes...
Next time, quote Shrek. "If it were me, you'd be dead!" Or "Better out than in, I always say." 😆
Substitute Teacher Doesn't Know What Hearing Aids Look Like
Maybe he couldn’t but she’d managed to get loud enough for him to realize she was talking to him even though he couldn’t understand her. The response still makes sense.
Load More Replies...He said "understand." Generally hearing loss isn't about volume, it's about clarity. It's difficult to understand what people are saying. People sound like they are mumbling, for example. Talking on the phone is a real challenge. I rely heavily on watching someone's lips when they are speaking in addition to my hearing aids. Let me tell you, wearing masks during COVID was a b***h for the hearing impaired.
Load More Replies...Biggest Motivator In The World. He’s Going Places
Some guy on roblox told me to kill myself and I have vowed to never die because of it
The survey revealed that even though they had an impactful teacher, some people never got around to thanking them; and they wish they did. But quite a few of respondents—close to three-quarters, if you’re wondering—noted that they keep in touch with a past teacher (and thanks to modern technology, it’s now more easier than ever), so, it’s likely that they still have a chance to say a heartfelt “thank you” in the future.
The Transformation Is Beginning
I thought it was going to be a case of chicken pox which would have been funny.
My sister thought she was a chicken for a while as a kids, because we jokingly called her one and she never got an ice cream headache/brain freeze, only what she called 'neck freeze'. The way that related to chickens is she had just learned that chicken's brains are in their neck.
That actually sounds really disappointing. Getting to be a bird would be awesome.
Depends on the bird. Budgie, no; Shoebill, great. Velociraptor, excellent.

Discussing The Psychology of Teaching in a piece for Psychology Today, a leading American cultural historian, Lawrence R. Samuel emphasized that for a teacher, few things feel better than making a difference. According to him, teachers who really love their job wouldn't trade places with the richest person in the world.
“The knowledge that they are making the world a slightly better place by making young people a little wiser each day is more satisfying than the emotional rewards from being, say, an investment banker,” Samuel wrote.
According to some sources, a teacher impacts roughly 3,000 students in the span of their career, which is definitely a number large enough to make a difference; even if only in their school or their area.
That’s Expert-Level Teaching
I said something similat when a bee flew into my classroom. I said, "Don't move or make any loud noises!" Then I grabbed my pbj from my lunch and lured the bee onto it. I carried the bee outside and dumped her into the planter, and put my sandwich away. One of the kids said, "I can't bee-lieve you're gonna still eat that." I replied, "It'll BEE fine!" 🐝 I got a round of applause.
Critical Literary Analysis
One of the highest marks I got in English lit was when I made up a load of symbolism that I'm sure the author never intended
I found the over analyzing of literature to be so stupid. Not everything has to have a hidden meaning or represent something. Gulliver's Travels is supposedly based on some politics of the time. I thought it was just a cool fantasy story about the weird places Gulliver goes.
When I wrote my first novel, I asked some of my friends to tell me what they were thinking. And one of them sent me an extract, telling me she loved how the repetition of the word "she" emphasized the gender of the character in a male world... yeah I'd have just written that part really late and was too tired to see the repetitions... but ok for me !
So Quotations Are Commas That Fly As A Team?
I don't want to know the mental picture he'd come up with for the piece of punctuation called a colon.
“Great teachers have understood that while imparting knowledge is important, setting students’ moral compass is the higher goal, as it elevates the lives of individuals and society as a whole,” Lawrence R. Samuel wrote. And indeed, quite often it’s the teacher who was a positive influence in more than just the academic field that the students tend to remember with great fondness the most.
One Of My 4th Grade Autistic Students Yelled At Me Yesterday. My Co-Teacher Told Him To Write Me An Apology Letter. This Is What He Did
Mental disorders effect those of us more strongly then the recipient so I'm sure the student felt really really bad he did that. I know with my ptsd and adhd i have had quite a few moments where i didn't know how to articulate how i felt in that moment and the frustration was on my end not being able to interact how i wanted so anger became the default.
Student Wishes His Teacher Was Pregnant

A Good Teacher Of Sorts
Cruel and unusual punishment. Not even the most brutal of courts would order this.
Jokes on him, I would regularly read the last page of the book I was reading first when I was a kid.
My fourth grade teacher (9 years old) refused to punish me for reading in class, because he didn't want to destroy my joy in reading. Mom told him to make me do my math.
In 8th grade we had a whole 20 minute section devoted to 'silent reading'. My school was great.
Wouldn't have worked on me, I always read the last chapter first to decide if the rest of the book is worth my time.

Load More Replies...For high school we have to study the entire Julius Caesar play and my classmates and I make fun of it whenever we get the chance. We’ve all theorised that Brutus and Cassius were in love because of the way they’d keep yapping about love (we know it means friendship but this interpretation was better). There was also a scene where Brutus’ wife died but he was so chill about it that we felt that he wasn’t upset because he has his Cassius.
How did so many kids even know about what those movies sound like in high school???? I guess I was just really sheltered.

My dad and his twin were born November 15th. Now THAT is a Valentine’s Day f**k.
I was born toward the end of November. That math works better. From what I was told, they were at a drive-in in my dad's Datsun, but that's a story I don't want to know about.
i was born on november 19, so i guess i was conceived around valentine's day like a few other commenters lol. *shrug*
But being born on 9/30 does say how the new year was 'rung in'. Mom denies it, but I'm sure that's the story. hehe
