Have you ever noticed that most teachers have gray hair before they turn forty? After a long and extensive research process, I discovered the reason behind this fact. In one word, it's students. That's right. We, the students are the ones that cause our beloved teachers to become prematurely gray. When I sat down and actually thought about the stuff some of us put our teachers through, I cannot believe we have not had at least one teacher keel over in the middle of a lecture. Students do a lot of things that irritate a teacher. However, it always seems to be the simplest things like our attention spans, preparation for class, class attendance, and our excuses that aggravate the teachers the most. Some of these are done on purpose, but there are some things that we do that are total accidents and just happen to achieve the same goal most of us are in the class to accomplish in the first place. .
One of the most underestimated ways to send a teacher into a total frenzy is by simply doing something we have been doing since we were the age of two. Talking is something most of us do not think bothers a teacher so we feel like we must do it like we just figured out how yesterday. However, after questioning several teachers about this, I quickly began to figure out that this is something all teachers hate with a passion. Some even went to the extent of saying that sometimes they wish we still did not know how to talk. When I heard this, I was shocked. So I quickly asked the question, "Well, then, how are we supposed to answer the questions you ask us?" This seemed to seep under the teachers" skin as they all clarified their answers by saying; "I don't mind when kids talk. It is when they talk while I am talking that is the problem." This was something I do not think that I have ever heard so I asked, "Well, have you ever thought abut telling your students not to talk when you are talking because I do not think I have ever heard a teacher say that to me?" This question was not very appeasing as one teacher even responded by accusing me of talking while the teacher was explaining that they would appreciate it if we would not talk when they were talking.
