Nowadays, everybody's a critic. Because of this, students are becoming increasingly harder to fool. I'm not that old, but I've been told by more than one old geezer that it was totally different back when they were in school.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, I was taken ill on Monday, and Mr Rockefellar stood in for me. This afternoon I received some rather colourful feedback from the class.
"His jeans are torn all over!"
"How torn were they? I mean, could you see his bum?"
"Well no, but they were ripped up pretty badly."
"Is it true that when he reads something, he pushes the paper so close it touches his nose?"
"Ya lor, ya lor!"
"What else?"
"His jokes are not funny at all, and even Gaymond is better."
"You got to be kidding."
"I'm not!"
So for all you teachers or tutors who are trying to make a quick buck, two things:
1. Teaching is not a walk in the park. You need to work harder than your students.
2. You can fool some of them some of the time, and all of them some of the time, but you can never fool all of them all of the time. (Abe Lincoln said this first)
