(C) 2012 D. S. DURFEESQCOMIC.COM I RECENTLY MADE A LIST OF CHARACTERISTICS I THINK AN EXCELLENT TEACHER SHOULD HAVE. I THOUGHT I'D LET DR. INGENIO MODEL SOME OF THEM FOR YOU. #1 - THEY LOVE TO TEACH I TICKED OFF THE DEAN, SO NOW I'M STUCK TEACHING THIS AWFUL “FUNDAMENTALS OF LEARNING” COURSE. #6 - THEY KNOW THE SUBJECT I DON’T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE TOPIC. I WAS SMART ENOUGH TO GET THROUGH COLLEGE WITHOUT ANY GIMMICKS. #3 - THEY LISTEN TO THE STUDENTS WHAT THINGS DO YOU THINK WOULD HELP YOU BE BETTER STUDENTS? I GET TO CLASS EARLY, TAKE THOROUGH NOTES, AND REVIEW THEM AFTER CLASS. #4 - THEY SHOW THE STUDENTS RESPECT EXACTLY! YOU NEED TO SUCK UP JUST LIKE THAT TO GET THE TEACHER’S ATTENTION. THAT'S ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR THIS GROUP. YOU'RE NOT LIKELY TO IMPRESS ANYONE WITH YOUR INTELLIGENCE. AND I SEE YOU’VE DRESSED LIKE A PROSTITUTE. WHILE I DON'T RECOMMEND IT, IT'S ANOTHER TRICK SOME STUDENTS EMPLOY TO TRY TO STAND OUT.
