Damn...ANYONE can be a teacher nowadays...
LOL Hopefully you'll morph into that teacher who everyone thought was mean and crazy before we had his class, then after, realized how great of a teacher the guy was.
Another thing that struck me is that teachers don't like talking dialect/slang to their students OUTSIDE of school hours. I don't have a single problem with that. In school we talk normal Dutch to each other, but if I see them at a shop for instance, there's no way in hell I'll be like: "hey, I'm still your teacher. Watch your language". The thing about it is, some teachers underestimate their students. These kids know their limits: last week I met a student at the swimming pool and we started talking. At first he talked "normal/formal" Dutch to me but I quickly made it clear that it was okay for him to use dialect/slang.
In school, he's a teacher wit the suit and he's respectful as hell. Out of school, he's wearing jeans and air forces and he's still respectful.
