I found it the other way round
I found most teachers prissy, anal-retentive, boring arseholes. Most of the kids were funny and interesting, even the ones who were nuisances. At the end of a year trying to teach a disinterested troublemaking 16 year-old, we shook hands and I said, "You have been a worthy adversary".
