Yeah that's true, I mean I don't really get so worked up about how other people do, some of my friends did better than me but I only care about my own results.
I hated English lessons, one of my teachers was really boring and the other one was a weirdo (like I said before). I would be late for lessons on Monday as I had a violin lesson during lunch and she would always get angry, she would always ask me questions in class too. I couldn't not pay attention in lessons as I knew she would ask me something, but in the long run it helped me get a good grade.
I quite like Chemistry, I really liked unit 2 and 3 stuff. Biology is cool, but some stuff is boring as ****, like photosynthesis and plants, ughhhh so dull... I didn't really give up on any subjects myself but I didn't really revise for English. I did some in the Easter (poem stuff for lit and a little on An Inspector calls) but I mostly went in blind and hoped it all went well, and somehow it did even though I expected Bs
Yeah, she just chatted loads of bullcrap, one time she said that one of her students robbed her car or something and she knew it was him yet did nothing about it....
I was just the quiet person in class who wouldn't really be hated by many teachers, but my chem teacher always asked me questions because I would get them wrong, he was one of those teachers that when they ask you a question you panic and say anything. But in like year 11 I kinda 'became smart' in peoples eyes so he started to ask other people. Your idea of teaching reminds me of my chem teacher, towards the end of year 11, when exams were starting, he kicked some people out of his class and told them to never go back to his lessons
