    My biology teacher is atrocious. He just reads through the book and tells us to underline literally, and i mean literally, everything.
    And my Irish teacher reads through poems and makes us repeat. She thinks we're in 5th class.

    I'd say just do whatever you liked best in the JC!

    I was thinking about that too last year but didn't want to leave my friends!:o

    Ya it's quite small but most of my year did TY so thats why the numbers are waaay down :(

    Ya well we have only did the first chapter and it's ok. I like it but my teacher goes on about stuff that isn't revelant to the course at all :(

    What other subjects are you doing?

    Ohh right, yeah my teacher does pretty much the same thing.:rolleyes:
    I'm doing biology, history, German, LCVP and art, I want to change to home ec but it's not working very well, the principal said yes so I asked my art teacher, she said no, went and asked my principal again.."We'll see". Grrr!

    I know, my English teacher is like that in a way, she explains to us the simplest of words like we're idiots or something yet on the first day she was rambling on saying that if we weren't smart enough we'd get kicked out.:pac:

    What do you think of LCVP so far?We haven't really done much yet but some of it seems like the CSPE and religion projects!
    Anyone else on here doing it?

    I don't know why really, I'm no good compared to the others in my class.:pac:

    Today, I asked my English teacher why she was making us highlight basically every line of Hamlet. She responded "If you don't like the way I run the class, drop down to pass by all means."
    Ffs.

    After being back for a few I have realized school is really important to show how little you care about anything and probably never will.

    Jaysus, you're only in 5th year Storm?:eek:

    Repeating 5th years sucks so far.:(

    AFAIK you can do macbeth for the 2012 leaving cert, you have to do hamlet or a winter tale (if you are doing higher):D

    Ah it's alright, apart from my English teacher but I think I've ranted about her enough at this stage.:pac:

    Why did you decide to repeat if you don't mind me asking?

    Oh Jaysus, every English teacher I've had has beena major pain in the arse.:pac:

    Ah, didn't do enough last year and the summer results showed it, and my Mammy made me.:P
    Had it in me head that fifth year was a doss up until about May then though "Shít, I'm screwed."


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭_Bella_


    I think all English teachers must be shíte. My teacher just goes off topic and we never get anything done. Starting applied maths and I am kinda worried about what to expect. History is great we have just been watching videos like 'the eternal jew'.

    Really? I just got off the phone to my friend, and she had double physics on Friday and they're halfway through the first chapter already. My chemistry teacher is just sorta making us remember some JC chem to give us a foundation on which to start, we've had 3 classes and haven't used the book yet.

  • Registered Users Posts: 127 ✭✭Princessxx


    Not back 'til Wednesday. Nobody knows me here, so it's not embarrassing to say it, but I'm a bit excited for the first day! :D
    haha I know you :)

    Finally finished one poem, only took about 6 classes.:rolleyes:

    She said today that we should tell her if she's going too fast or too slow everyone said it was fine and I was just there "NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!":pac:
    I'm out numbered though.:(

    On the plus side, I got to switch to home ec.
