February TC Challenge Day 1

1.) What is one trait you found in your TC(s) that you find irreplacable, and why?

- the way she speaks and carries herself is so unlike anyone i have ever met or spoken to. She’s always in a suit and she dresses so much better and more formally than all the other teachers and the way she pronounces things (for example her slight lisp and the way she pronounces “s” sounds is so uniquely beautiful.) and her hair i love it sm she’s so blonde and amazing

why does a fucking teacher need to look so hot

we had a test today and i was slightly late and she made me sit right at the front. and we can wear our own clothes tomorrow because it’s the last day of term- someone please tell me what to wear because I have her class

Physically I’m here, but mentally I’m in a small classroom at a liberal arts college in Vermont maybe in the ‘80s studying Classics and toasting to living forever

first time seeing j back at school after easter and

i spent all lunch in her room and it just . felt like home

my sister just agreed w me that j is hot idk how to feel

.

imagine …

your tc marking an essay or test and smiling softly at the doodles and drawings you did out of boredom

choosing to mark your work first, so you get it earlier, or last, just to annoy you

your tc immediately recognising your handwriting and admiring it because it’s just so you

being SO. PROUD. when you get a good grade if you were struggling, even in another subjects

hearing you defend him/her in passing conversation with friends, and defending you if another teacher complains about you

your tc understanding stress and being chill about it, extending due dates etc because they want you to focus on your health

your tc admiring you while you’re in your element (besides their subject) like singing/art/etc

your tc looking at you with a smile and fighting the urge to wave as you pass their classroom without realising

noticing when you get a haircut or when you wear a new outfit/accessory to school

him/her letting you off with a warning about dress codes bc you kinda just rock it

your tc cheering just a little louder when you receive an award or achievement

a small part of him/her hoping its you visiting their office when they hear the familiar knock at the door

your tc giving you That look when people are being dumb and not paying attention in class because they kinda just wanna sit and teach you

yr welcome ( ♥︎ω♥︎)੭ꠥ⁾⁾˚ ⁺˳✧༚
