The professors in the AskReddit hot answer are really all crunches:
- The course was a required course in engineering and was notoriously difficult. He had never had feedback on homework, quizzes, exams. He gives you a score but the students won't know what they're wrong about. Many of us have miraculously got the same score.
- I met an art professor who once gave us homework to find a painting in a local gallery and evaluate it, what we like, what we don't like, what we paint with, what we use if it is. After the assignment, his feedback to us was, "that's why you're not a professional artist, and I am."
- Once there was a Latino professor who, whenever a student did not understand her question, stared at them and repeated the question again and again, as if she could hear it a few more times. When the student told her they needed help or had a question, she refused to answer.
- I once had a professor who, like many professors, asked students to buy his textbooks. But none of his books were published, just more than 400 pages of his handwritten copy!
- I once met a professor who deliberately missolved the equation in class and laughed and said, "No, it's the wrong way." Then solve it again in the right way.
There must be a lot of friends like me, just want to read every comment made by all the teachers in this class on RATEOFMYPROFESSOR.COM before selecting the class!
Notice, then, that the professor, who has the following characteristics in the commentary, hastened to make a detour. In case of carelessness choose to find out, also hurry up run!
Accent problem
English is as difficult for them as algebra is for you. If your professor is not someone who can speak fluent English or has a serious accent, then you may have a very difficult time. In particular, science, mathematics, these some difficult courses.
Lack of a complete syllabus
The syllabus is like a contract between you and the professor. With the syllabus, the professor can't suddenly put in an important test, and you can't say you misheard due date.. If you don't send a syllabus or just a profile of your down from the web, such professors may not be very reliable.
lazy
In general, professors don't talk too much on the first day, basically introduce themselves, smooth out the syllabus, and then the first lesson is over. But if you finish your class early in the first few times, you can basically think that the professor is a rookie, has no experience, will not prepare for the course, and has no good grasp of the course. There may be children's shoes think it's good to finish class early every day, but think of paying so much tuition, your heart is not dripping blood?
Holiday assignment
Professors who assign homework during spring break are easy to put on this list, though it is common. Should have been in the relaxation of the body to sleep, but to do homework to the mood is really very uncomfortable ah.
irascibility
Always angry professor, his anger on the students.
self-important
You know this type, always talking about your own things, bragging about past experiences. I don't like anything, I don't think everyone is as good as him, and I don't care about everything.
The memory is not very good.
It's pretty cute to see the main actress in the TV series lose everything, but the professor who always forgets things is not so cute. If your professor often doesn't remember where the things are, forget to bring things with you. Then you'd better prepare more than two copies of any homework.
Radical political views
It's not about whether you agree with his political views, and if the professor brings his radical political ideas into class, it's a waste of your time. This is a free country, you can believe anything you want to believe, but you don't have to spend money listening to other people's beliefs.
There's a spiritual world you don't understand.
What you can't understand, no matter how you try, how hard you try, or how you can't communicate, is the thinking of two worlds.
