I don't know whether I am pleased or displeased to inform you that I will not be continuing to take your class. I thoroughly enjoy singing in the choir, but the environment was not conducive to learning. I wish I could have stayed, but it just wasn't right.
Yeah. ....
Umm, heeyyy, I'm done beating around the bush. Let me tell you like it is. You were one of the worst teachers I have ever had.
You're right up there with the first grade teacher that wouldn't let me take the medication that allowed me to walk. Ya. She went there.
Anyway, I expect you are wondering why I have these hard feelings towards you? Let me tell you,
Oh let me tell you.
In no particular order of importance or chronology...
1. You made children cry in class with your harsh words of criticism.
One of those children may or may not have been me.
2. After you decided to criticize, you told me that I was the best soprano. Can you make up your mind? Thanks.
3. You are a grumpus in the rumpus about people who need to pee. Yes, I agree that that one girl went to the bathroom too often. But there was no need to scowl when the innocent had to do their business.
4. The hat rule. That was dumb. Plus, knit berets are not hats. Please let me wear my "hat". Especially on a day that...
5. You randomly decide to not teach class. We can see you in your office. WE KNOW YOU ARE THERE... Please TEACHER. TEACH us. You claim that you have so much to do, but I have yet to figure out what that is. You are a choir teacher. You don't have papers to grade, let alone huge essays. Nothing. Stop playing Farmtown or whatever it is you are doing in there and be a choir teacher.
6. So, we kind of don't care about your freaking long stories about how the conversation you had as you were having lunch with some obscure acapella group. Especially when we've already heard that story. Goodbye.
7. Absent much? Why didn't you show up to class? The last few weeks were excusable with your back problem. But other 50 or so absences? Hmm? I think that Camille taught us more than you did, and she is one of us. You owe her.
In short, you drove away potentially excellent choir students. The ones that were tough enough feel like they are not enough because you are unappreciative of the talent that comes your way. You have a bad temper, you yell and have child-like tantrums on an almost daily basis (well, the days you show up, anyways...), and you don't have the right to treat students the way you do.
Please stop being lazy, or stop teaching.
Yours (NOT!) truly,
Emily Jardine :)
