This is a question Awesome teachers

Teachers have been getting a right kicking recently and it's not fair. So, let's hear it for the teachers who've inspired you, made you laugh, or helped you to make massive explosions in the chemistry lab. (Thanks to Godwin's Lawyer for the suggestion)

Proper teacher training
I work with a professor of education who is also an ex teacher.
He told me about his first teaching job in an all boys school in the 60s.

He was given a short tour and a word of advice on his first day.

“ To gain the respect of the pupils and to maintain order in the class room you need to show the boys that you’re not to be trifled with.”

“What You do upon entering is grab the closest child and throw him forcefully to the ground, Shout at the boys to sit up and pay attention, and then introduce yourself”

Simples.

Similar idea
My sister's a teacher and she was told that if you could make the kids cry on the first day you'll have few hassles with them from then on. Apparently it's a common practise.
