Stupid English Teachers!!

I really feel privileged to have studied in Kendriya Vidyalayas!! And i feel even more lucky to have studied English from some of the best teachers! Mrs. Usha Swaran and Mrs. Veena Vasudev are responsible for my interest in English and also for my vocabulary! ( Well, my brother and mom helped equally as well! :P)

But, the kind of English tutors i have come across now in my 'professional' college is really scary! Most of them (barring Mrs. Fatima Mary) make more mistakes than even we students do! Sample this, a teacher who is supposed to teach phonetics and communication skills to 3rd year engg students, uses the word 'individuality' where one is supposed to use 'individual'.

A first year English teacher says," catch your friends hand and help him walk"! Yeah, RITE!!! Break his hand, fling it in the air and 'catch' it! SICK!! The only saving grace being, Mrs. Fatima Mary, who is reasonably good at English and also conducts herself well.

Now, why am i writing all this?? What triggered this fire in me today? Aaj kya hua? Well, i started of writing this blog to vent my ire out on the two people i HATE the most right now! 1. Mrs. Indrani, Asst Prof in English H&S dept, Cmrcet. 2. Ritesha Jairaj (student- infact, my junior's junior!! Hyperactive, arrogant and vicious). REASONS- Target no-1: For judging a competition without knowing what it is all about and what to look forward to. Target no-2: For trying to be over smart!

When a person who is supposed to judge and chose the best candidate in a PPT competition, one expects her to atleast know the basic criteria on which one needs to decide the abilities of a candidate! But, Madam Indrani ( What a divine name for a fool like her!), doesnt even know the difference between a 'technical' and a 'non-technical' topic! Not to mention her funny pronunciations and grammar skills! And choosing someone just because he is her student does not give him any merit, whatsoever! To rub salt on my wounds, she picked the over-smart and high-attitude girl, Ritesha, over more talented students like me!

Should i have created a ruckus?? Should i have differed with her judgement? I wish i could... But ye 'CMR' hai, where the lecturers try to pull you down by blackmailing you with the 25 marks that they have in their hands! whats worse? Even if the lecturer does nt teach you, you still have to behave well with them as ' impression' is the key! :@

Well, ab jo hua, usse kaun taal sakta hai. Probably i was being too immature by sulking over such a small thing. But its is an undeniable fact that there were better candidates than the people she chose (only Tanuj, Alok, Poornima deserved being selected). And probably i am being even more immature by cursing a poorly educated 'teacher', who is doing the job to earn her bread and butter. But, i still feel my hatred towards that girl is justified! :D :P And i am fortunate again, that all my life, i was always judged without any bias in all the competitions i took part in, and never did the judges show any kind of favouritism! But, i will definitely settle scores with both the targets on my current hit-list! Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost....
