I have one teacher I do adore, he’s amazing and very nice but nice to the point where you could have a student yelling loudly and cussing while he is teaching and the most he will do is joke about it and try to quiet the student down like they are a 4th grader and not a sophomore in highschool.

For our first test, I did great, the rest of the class did so bad our class average was horrible. He said he wouldn’t put the grades in, however that is a slap in the face for the students who studied and tried. I was proud and he praised me but He let the other kids off to easy. He was being too nice.

In class, he apologizes for everything, he apologizes for “long lectures” when in reality he only talked for 10 minutes, he apologizes for “too much work” however all we did today was one worksheet WITH a CHEATSHEET and we never get homework.
(i might be a bit biased because i enjoy the subject he teaches and wouldn’t mind more work, but still)

It’s gets annoying, he lets the students walk all over him, they don’t care if he’s lecturing or teaching they talk over him and joke about things that has nothing to do with the subjects. He lets them..

Maybe he isn’t too nice, maybe he’s a PEOPLE PLEASER and is too DESPERATE to be the students favorite teacher but it’s so annoying, he has no backbone, it’s hard to concentrate with the nonsense, and with a STRICTER teacher the class sure does listen better. - which i think that’s why i always loved the “mean” teachers” and everyone else hated them. They had boundaries, they prioritized teaching and not being everyone’s favorite.

Am i over reacting? He lets everything slide. is takes away the effort the students who try put in.

AND ALSO, Letting the kids “bad grades” slide does more than disservice the ones who’s studied, it doesn’t teach them to take studying more seriously, it lets them think that all they need to do is whine to the teacher and it gets the grade taken out, they don’t learn anything. They don’t do better.

Am i over reacting?

I have read Tender is the Flesh , the discomfort of evening , and Sharp Objects which i think is my most disturbing read… so don’t hold back! These are what i consider my most disturbing reads so far.
I’m looking for underground artists , that preferably can still be found on Amazon to purchase, or books that aren’t recommended enough.
Nothing like Then She Was Gone or A Good Girls Guide to Murder , LOVED THOSE BOOKS but they are already hyped up, give me some hidden gems!

so far i have added The Eyes are The Best Part to purchase .. I am. doing a little challenge to stay off my phone for a week and i love to read but i need more books!

EDIT: i have added all your books to a very extensive list on my notes app. I am still kind of broke but i did splurge on 5 books that i saw was recommended most-
The Wasp Factory
Haunted
Baby Teeth
Victorian Psycho
The Eyes are the Best Part

these books made the cut! very excited
