A teacher was baffled when he discovered one of his students’ answers to a writing exercise. The copy is already making the rounds on the web.
Teachers often have great stories to tell. A teacher had recently shared an image of the 1900 euros in notes that she had found on her table, coming from two students. They hoped to bribe her to get an extra point in their average. Another teacher has just revealed a funny new story about one of the schoolchildren in his class. This time, it was while reading this young student’s paper that the teacher was surprised.
The teacher had asked his primary school pupils to describe a person close to them during an exercise on paper. The goal was to respect the rules of the enumeration with the corresponding punctuation. The student, whose copy he revealed, followed the instructions perfectly, except for one detail: he chose to describe a particular person around him, his teacher. This is what the child wrote: “Victor, my teacher is: kind, smart, bald, dramatic (sometimes) and good.”
If he first noted the correct punctuation, the schoolmaster was then flattered by the first two qualifiers, which were rather nice. He was then amused by the very involuntary cruelty of the child, who obviously dwelled on his baldness problems. But it was the use of the term “dramatic” which undoubtedly surprised him the most. It’s quite an unexpected term, especially among young students. The latter, however, was not offended and, in the rest of the video, overplayed this role, pretending to cry in his bed.
It is not uncommon for exercises carried out in class to bring out children’s offbeat perceptions of their environment and the world in general. And the professor who shared his anecdote was of course amused. Victor Lopez Garrido, who teaches in Logroño, Spain, simply titled his video “They love me”. And it is being widely shared on TikTok.
The video has already garnered more than 13,000 views as of this writing. In the comments, the laughter continues. Some people raise the “sometimes” well put in parentheses when it comes to describing the “dramatic” side of the teacher.
The professor, however, did not reveal what he wrote back on the copy. For example, did he thank the student for this description, or in turn add a funny or amused comment on the copy? Some Internet users called on the teacher to award his student the maximum mark for the originality of his answer, which still respected the instructions of the exercise.
Victor Lopez Garrido, who regularly shares this type of anecdote, is very popular with his students: some time previously, he had published the video of a fake paper cake which was accompanied by a little message. It said: “For the best math and language teacher.”
