I did terrible in school until grade 4.
And by terrible, I mean a C average... and I was in special classes for being overly sensitive and having dyslexia/dyscalculia.
I don't remember if I had any very good or bad teachers, as I remember very little from that far back. Just being bullied; but that continued until the end of highschool.
My teacher in grade 4 spent alot of extra time with me and discovered that I had a grade 13 reading level.
From that year onward, somehow things were so much easier - no matter what teachers I had. My average was top of the class until I became agoraphobic in grade 10 and stopped coming to school.
Teachers in highschool were wonderful. A couple old grumps but for the most part, the teachers were cool...
that may only be because they liked me, though.
I was well liked by teachers and authority figures without being a brown noser. haha-- and then disliked by everyone else.
Instructors in college were flaky to say the least.
Most of them had jobs in film and would only show up to one lecture every month to grade assignments and hand out new ones.
Attendance didn't matter, except in ONE class... the most BORING class... ughhhh...
Anyway... I found school too easy but I think I prefer things to be easy.
I've never been one who was attracted to difficult things.
I don't work well under pressure.
I don't seek challenges for fun.
I guess I'm kind of lazy.
If I had the money, I'd have finished college - horrible instructors or not... because it was easy and I knew exactly what I was doing.. and it was something I liked.
It used to be my dream.
Now I have no dream.
