  • When they complain about homework: me making the "I don't care" meme

  • Reminding them of the "3 Universal Laws for a Chill Classroom"

    • I don't want to meet your parents
    • You don't want me to meet your parents
    • Your parents do not want to meet me
  • Watch them copy each other completely wrong answers because I made different exam models and they haven't noticed.

  • "I left my phone home" Then why do I get a "StudentName's IPhone" when I turn the Bluetooth of my phone on??

  • Student fails exam, demands being allowed to take a different model to prove how her first one was extremely hard and the other students got easier questions. Fails again. (Questions were the same but in different order).

  • "I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS ACTIVITY" Student hadn't bothered reading the question.

  • "I don't want to work today" We are on the same boat, buddy.

  • Student didn't do the assignment because grandma had died. Somehow, with the next assignment, said grandma was dead again, for a different reason.

  • "You are weird" 8 months in and you just noticed????

  • "You are so short, I'm way taller than you!" Yeah, so is everyone else, you are not special.

  • (Around Christmas time) "Remember, kids, some of you are one email to your parents away from having a very sad Christmas.

  • Me having to remind them that if they want to cheat, for the love of God, do it properly.

  • Student submitted an essay written with two different pens, different handwriting and grammar well beyond their skills. " Did you write this?" "Yes" "Wanna try answering that again?"

  • "Phone stays with me if you want to go to the toilet" "Why?" "Because I know what you do when you have it. Uploading photos only for your best friends is not a good idea when said friends are in my class".

  • "What do you mean, we have to do the whole page???"

  • "Stop biting that pencil. See the marks? You ain't the first one doing this"

  • Student touching a gooey substance a previous kid had coughed up I beg you, tell me how did you get to the conclusion of that touching that was a good idea.

  • Student asked me if I had a job.

  • I had an hilarious meeting with two students that had copied each other's work, mistakes and all, and denied it. The parents were deeply embarrassed.

  • Gave an F to a student. Parent came choleric, demanding explanations. His kid works super hard and I was trying to "sabotage his expedient". I showed him the exam, blank, with only the name of the student filled and the date, not even correct. Fastest meeting ever.

  • "I DON'T OBEY WOMEN" Cool, have you informed your mum about this policy change of yours? If not, I'll do it for you! "NO NO NO DON'T TELL HER I SAID THAT I'M SORRY"

  • Student got handed a broom to clean the class after littering "You are a monster" "Perhaps, but you behave like a pig and sweep like a wet noodle"
