Would pull stupid faces when he thought no one was looking. Wore bow ties. Liked Jazz. He let us listen to French rap and when we finished the syllabus 4 months early he taught us A2 level grammar.

Mr Dutton, my Maths teacher in years 8-9He wasn't fun, his lessons weren't fun, you got your head down, and you worked damn hard. But he was superb. He had an aura about him that made kids want to work. He was very strict, but never unfair. His main rule was simple - No talking.
He'd only repeat what he said if someone had been coughing/sneezing, etc. As far as he was concerned, if you didn't hear him, you weren't listening.
When he taught me, I was the top of the year at Maths, the lad I sat next to 2nd, (We pretty much swapped between those two). The next year I was put with a useless fucker, and ended up near the bottom of the set.
His idea of 'fun' lessons included crossword puzzles. His lesson plan was always the same -
1. Do work on board
2. Do sheet handed out
3. Do 5 pages in textbook
4. If you finish those 5, carry on. If you reached a section you hadn't done before, it was an opportunity to get ahead.
He was fucking awesome.

My 6th form tutor once strolled into our common room, announced "boys, boys, everyone is looking for the land of the golden fuck, let me tell you it doesn't exist" and walked out. Next day he brought his 16 year old daughter in. I've no idea if the two events were meant to be connected. Perhaps he was warning us that his daughter was rubbish in bed.

A tie between two teachersMr Treby - English teacher who seemed to be so addicted to coffee it's surprising he didnt have an IV drip of the stuff. But it was always funny to hear him pointing out errors in all the shite novels we had to read for GCSE.
And Miss Dean - The ginger Physics teacher who had a mouth like a megaphone, yet was extra kind to the kids who were bound to get an A (i.e. me and a couple of friends). Secret jelly babies whenever we had a test.
Alt Q: Begins with a little rhyme thingy really, still working on it.
"This woman was red. This woman was dead. This woman walked through the woman none knew."
