One of the things
that drive more crazy students is when you have been waiting the teacher for 5 or 10 minutes and when
he/she opens the door after trying it with all his/her keys he/she says “It
isn’t so difficult to start on time! Come on you are so slow!”
Then the teacher
keeps in silence till everybody stops talking and sits on the chair crossing
legs and arms and says: “Ok, I see that you don’t know how to be in silence so
now we are going to practice it. We are going to keep 5 minutes without talking;
if anyone talks, we are going to start again!” After 5 minutes in silence, the
teacher says “Can we start now?” asking it as if we could answer him/her.
The teacher stands up
and starts explaining the new lesson exactly the same way that is in the book,
even the same examples! It represents that if you are a teacher, you know what
you are explaining and you have an idea of the examples that you can give!
The problem comes
when he/she starts writing something on the board and he/she writes like a
doctor. Then you have a problem because if you ask the teacher, he/she will
answer that you were not listening to him/her and if you don’t ask it, you will
not have all the notes completed.
When it’s about 5 minutes to finish, the teacher says
“Ok, now you have to do page 5 and page 6. You have time to do it now. If you
don’t finish it, it’s homework for tomorrow”. And you are thinking: do you want
us to do two pages in 5 minutes? We are not superwomen!!
