Today, my English teacher used the word "interpretate" again. This isn't the only mistake she's made though; I've been so frustrated that I've started a list of them. It's over a page long. I'm meant to be learning things from this woman. FML

'interpretate' is a perfectly cromulent word.

I once had a teacher tell us about how, “pon-ti-is pee-lot had like, totally conspired against Jesus with Jonas" needless to say we had her fired

I had to fill out one of those sheets myself. My issue was the teacher incorrectly used the word "impact" all throughout the course.

I had a manager that would say "hective" instead of "hectic." I would always smirk and see if anyone noticed but I guess you can't just shrug it off when it's your education.

Is her name Mrs. Arnold? My English teacher junior year of high school pronounced so many things wrong. She pronounced 'gesture' as "guess-chur", 'labyrinth' as "lab-eye-renth', and sepulchre as "Sep-el-shay'. I know your pain.

I'm not sure if I could contain myself if I heard that pronunciation of "gesture". There was a guest lecturer in my class once who pronounced "femme fatale" like "FEM-mi FAY-tel", but she seemed brilliant other than that.

I hate having teachers like that. Just shows how much these school care about our education. They don't. So therefore they don't even take the time to find teachers that actually know what they're going. It's better in places like Finland

No kidding. I had an English teacher in high school who told us about a class she had "teached", along with many other errors, and she hated me for the entire year because I corrected her once. She actually tried to fail me by conveniently losing about half of my work and then claiming I had never handed it in. If they cared about our education at all, people like this would never have even been able to become teachers.

If she's getting you to pay attention this much I'd say she's doing a perfectly fine job as a teacher.

My englishteatcher once tried to teach us the frase "Yesturday I saw TV", spelling and all. He then lowered my grade because I corrected him.

Did he also teach you to spell "phrase" with an f?

Nope, he did not. I did that all by myself.

In fairness to her, the nominal form of interpret is interpretation. So she's still wrong, but at least there's a basis for her mistake.

Hold onto that paper, OP. Then, at the very last day of school, give her all the lists you'll accumulate during the years.

I know how you feel, my admin teacher is hardly in class either due to coffee or cigarette breaks or just to talk to other teachers. I take notes of the times he comes in and out of class. The first time I took it down, he was in for 10 out of 50 minutes. The worst thing is, he's not going anywhere soon unless he fires himself or retires :/
