question
what’s your opinion on making kids do oral presentations?
Here are some other posts I’ve made on presentations:
Re tricky exam questions: It can be argued both ways. I don’t think the majority of the test should have tricky questions; however, one or two should be. Standardized tests will have tricky questions, and so will life. If the tricky questions are meant to challenge and make the students think, that’s a good thing. If, however, it’s simply meant to defeat them, then the teacher’s being an asshole.
In Ontario, we only have one standardized test that counts for graduation – the Grade 10 Literacy Test, which we go over greatly in school. I feel I can challenge students on assignments, but don’t do so on tests because of the stress that comes along with it. I rarely give tests, honestly.

So sometimes when I’m the center of attention in class (I’m a highschool student) I get red, sometimes extremely red and one of my teachers make fun of my every time. This isn’t just light joking, it’s full on rude remarks and laughing in my face, one time she even called me a tomato (and cue the rest of the class laughing at me because of her comment). What are your thoughts on teachers who do that, and what can I do about it?😩
Try talking to the teacher privately to explain how you feel and that you don’t appreciate it. Always be polite. If this doesn’t work, please talk to a guidance counsellor and/or administrator because this is bullying.

So my Biology 2 teacher doesn’t give us a study guide for our test and half the stuff on the test isn’t in the book and when we tell her she acts like we are lieing. I know being a teacher is hard sometimes but it gets kinda stressful when we ask for help and she doesn’t. Do you think she is being fair and do you have any advice?
Have you asked your teacher for help privately? Explain how you’re feeling and that you wish for some extra help in order to be successful. If this doesn’t work, you can talk to a guidance counsellor or other close teacher for some advice. Good luck!

I read through this blog when I’m angry at my teachers, to help me settle down. It’s easy to forget sometimes that you guys are real people with flaws and feelings, and not just evil homework assigning machines!
I tried to find a robot gif to go along with this, but to no avail. Yes, we are people too! We also like to hear your perspectives, so make sure you share with your teachers when you’re feeling stressed!
