explore my optimistic world

Since the start of the second semester, I’ve never attended this Opinion Writing class under an instructor who is at the same time an editor-publisher in one of the local newspapers.

Why would I be interested to attend this class when I know that the teacher only holds classes once in a blue moon? Another, why would I waste my time and energy when classes under him are done in his office and not inside the classroom? Third, whether you regularly attend classes, you and your classmates would still have the same grades. Just take it from the experience of the previous semester. Fourth, if in case there’s a class, the old teacher usually starts it one hour delayed. Again, take it from experience of the first semester, and because of this, students end up starving because it’s already pass 12 noon, which is supposed to be timely for lunch. Fifth, this editor-publisher is not contented of giving two or three projects, but 10 is the minimum number of requirements. During the last semester, every meeting, he gave us assignments and projects. Lastly, when we have a class, though there is a teacher-student interaction, but there are lots of interactions since the room that we’re using is his office, so concerns about his paper and publication are raised, especially if there are visitors.

So why would I give full efforts in attending his class if he’s not worthy of students’ attendance? Else if he’ll change his teaching style and attitude, then that would be the time that I’ll religiously attend his class.

Though I’m always absent, but I’m not threatened because all of us know the weakness of this man, so getting passing grades is that easy. But I only have one comment to this teacher—he’s not good enough to be given a load and handle a subject.
