Awesome teachersTeachers 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)

On the other hand..There is a point buried in 'self-directed learning' - there are many things where there is no way to teach it: the best a teacher can do is provide opportunity, and assist motivation, to learn.
With that in mind, the problem I had in university (aside from excessive laziness) was the poor feedback loop. If there are two weeks between me doing some work, and getting information on my weaknesses in that work, then a) I have forgotten what I was thinking at the time and b) I have done two weeks' work based on this flawed approach.
