Your Weirdest TeacherThe strangest teacher at my school used to practice his lessons at night. We'd watch through the classroom windows as he did his entire lesson, complete with questions to the class and telling off misbehaving students.
Were your teachers as strange? Of course they were...

R.E. TeacherWhy is it that these 'professionals' are usually certifiable??
Anyhow, Mr. Howe. He was a true-to-life foaming mouth nut case. In one lesson (famously about "the occult"), I remember him having a total divorce from reality and spazzing out, accusing one of the more "intellectually challenged" members of my class of being possessed!
He also used to speak in tongues, which was wierd, though on reflection he may have been having seizures.
The worst thing though related to a tragedy in his personal life. The death of his son (his son was knocked off his horse and died). Various members of my class used to take great delight in winding him up by making horse noises while he was speaking, to the point where he'd turn bright red, incandescent with rage banging desks and chairs and screaming like a loon about the "evil spirits" in the room.
What a wacko.
