5 Things Students Don't Know About Their Teachers

You rarely see a teacher and a student getting along well with each other. Perhaps this is because of the rules that professors impose upon their students; and as democratic as we all are, students dislike rules and limitations.

Teachers Know How to Listen
More often than not, students consider their teachers to have closed ears. Well, this isn't entirely true. Good teachers only close their ears when they have to. For example, if a student failed because of not doing his obligations, then the teacher is compelled to give failing marks to that student. However, if the teacher sees that there is a potential in you, they will usually wait for you to approach them and confess about your difficulty in doing and learning tasks.

Teachers Take Care of Their Students Like Their Own Child
Unknown to you, the teachers treat their students like their own child. They assign you tasks, gives you things to do, and punishes you whenever there is a need to. Do not think that a teacher gets happy when a student fails; they feel a bit of disappointment within themselves if such situation happens.

Teachers Understand You Because They Were Once Students Too
Most of the students deem that they are not understood by their teachers. However, this is not a fact. Teachers used to be students so they perfectly understand how you feel and how you react. They are just doing their jobs to make it possible for you to become better students.

Teachers Feel Every Emotion That You Feel
Teachers are very good at gauging feelings. They will know if a student is sad, depressed, happy or intimidated. They evaluate through the response of the student at academics. Students easily get affected and it shows through their grades; teachers act upon this problem as swiftly as they could.

Teachers Are Capable of Mistakes Too
Teachers are great; but they are not perfect. Like us, they commit a few mistakes from time to time. We cannot really expect them to be perfect. After all, we're all humans and we're all capable of committing mistakes.
