50 Hilarious Teacher Memes Every Educator Should Relate To

I teach English as a foreign languge. The assignment says in big bold letters it should be done in English. "Do I need to write English?" The assignment says it counts towards their final result. "What do you mean, this mark counts?" Rinse and repeat.

"Time spent on reconnaissance is seldom wasted..."

We had one that, around Halloween set up a field trip to a former psychiatric hospital which has been turned into a commons with living spaces and shopping/dining. There is a maze of tunnels beneath the buildings. She somehow conned them into a tour of the tunnels, spooky for sure.

But it was educational.

Oh I am dying laughing over this... I will now triple check beaches for further field trips to avoid this.

I was just sharing with my 20 year-old granddaughter -- a manager at a boutique cookie bakery -- how difficult it can be for some people to respect and work under someone who might be much younger than they are. And... how closed minded they must be. Unable to see the big picture -- including education and struggles that the youthful boss endured to get there -- they often act childish and refuse to acknowledge the authority. I am 58yo and am the oldest in the medical/surgery clinic where I work. Frankly, I would rather be a warrior and not the chief. Thus, I am content to follow those who have book knowledge -- that likely exceeds my own -- more than experience. I also know full well that there are many things I can teach them too.

Some of them might have been thinking it but too polite / scared to say it out loud ?

I should try this! 😂

OK that's optimistic. I swear they come up with new ways to forget or lose their things

I'd say Jurassic Park captures it pretty accurately. There's a lot of chaos. The person in charge clearly shouldn't be. The competent people are doing all the actual work while those theoretically in charge just keep cheerleading the utterly outrageous ideas. The expectation is that lack of resources, excessive hazards, and unsafe conditions should have no bearing on the outcome...yup checks out.

You're not "covering up" anything. All you're doing is drawing attention to the comment by making sure people go look for it. Please do NOT this! Just downvote and report it. It will get hidden by downvotes anyway.

Opossums are cool, ignorance is not

Spoken like a true MAGA

That's the funniest thing ever. "Lazy people end up as well paid civil servants or sneak into other countries"...? Doesn't sound very lazy to me. Or logical

Wow...I RARELY downvote even on things I don't agree with but this? Yeah s***w you Tom.

Upvoted your own comment I see.

Believe me, exams in the UIK work like that. Especially at 'A' level - if the marker can't read your scrawl, they send it to a second marker. If the second marker can't read it, ... you're the loser ...

Honestly if we can't read it how on earth are we supposed to know if you answered correctly

To a degree I get this, I don't agree with it, but I get it. Some (not all) people just write sloppy to be done quickly and could, if they slowed down, write more legibly. I have horrible handwriting, which would improve if I slowed down and really concentrated, but I had a teacher ask me very politely if I would please type all my assignments.

My teacher used to ask us to read it ourselves in front of the class

I had a teacher who did that to me I later learned I have fine motor apraxia and I’ll basically never be able to write neatly. So s***w that teacher who ended up being an abilist jerk when I tried to get accommodations.

and the Head of Department 'sitting in' on one of them

It is. That's until someone from exec walks past the room.

There's also making exasperated comments. Sample comment ( we are on chapter 15 of To K**l a Mockingbird) " Ok we have been reading this for 5 weeks. Scout is a girl.

Got 'talked to' once as there was a couple students in house after dismissal and I, the custodian, called them on it, which triggered them to take off running. "Aw HELL no!" was my infraction.

Good role model... or bad? ;)

I can't say crac.ked?

Hey we love you. We appreciate that you want to talk to us and it makes us feel like at least one kid doesn't hate us.

Yup

He should go on a break.

Well I think it boils down to do I care more if the kids learn to follow rules or do I care more that they learn the material in my class.
