Those teachers //Rant

That act all high and mighty, and when you ask them something they feel the need to be rude.
I dont get it, this is what you do to make a living , how hard is it to show some respect... how hard is it to explain something when someone doesn't understand.
I'm really glad this class will be over in a month because its really taking a lot not to lash out. Then i'd look like the rude one.
Luckily I am passing,So I dont have to deal with this again. I just hope I dont get another teacher like her.

why would you go into a profession where the entire point is to help people learn and then act like it's audacious for people to expect you to help them learn or know your material?
though i tend not to hold back unless i have a really good reason like i respect their position in the <insert their class's topic> community.
when professors refuse to explain things to me, or intentionally give the same explanation/a vague one, i shrug and tell them something minimizing like, "It's okay if you don't know/know how," or "It's probably not that important anyway."
or, like, if you're an english professor who misuses words (do not misuse 'taxonomy' in front of a biology student) and misunderstands tone. i'm going to tell them they used taxonomy wrong. i'm paying a lot of money for a good education and it's paying their salary.
fortunately at my college i've only met one or two really bad ones SORRY I GOT OFF ON A RANT THERE.
have you been to sites like http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ ? they're a lifeeesaaaverrr
I like that "It's okay if you don't know"
Sometimes I really feel like she doesn't, but then she grades it, what I was confused and asked about, is now negatively effecting my grade.
This is my first semester so I didn't know about those sites until it was too late, and of course she has a terrible rating.
I have an idea of what classes i'm going to take next semester, and most of the teachers have alright ratings, but one of the teachers isn't even listed, it just says "staff" . I'll be asking about that in a couple of days though. I just hope that isn't some way to hide a shitty teacher.Especially since the second semester we only get 3 days to change our classes.
