Terror professors are the people mostly hated by students. Maybe because of their nagging, overloaded seatworks and homeworks, and of course their extremely ultra mega hard quizzes. Well for me that’s very true and I think that other students would agree to me. I know that it’s harder to understand what they teach also because of that unexplained creepy aura that surrounds them that makes their students’ hearts stop and especially if the subjects they teach are your weaknesses. They give the students the fear and hatred that they won’t forget for a long time. But as you read this article, maybe you can get some ideas on how to make yourself invisible to them or how to avoid those locked flaming red eyes of your professors unto you.
> First one is to be quiet. Being quiet can make an impression that you are always listening to them. Make sure that you always look at them and act like you are really listening. Nodding of your head can work. Please, please, please, I know what you are thinking, but guys it is wrong! Remember that being quiet doesn’t mean sleeping in the class.
> Second is to be punctual. Don't be absent or late because every meeting is important. Your professors will always recognize you if you will continue being late or absent. By the time you attend their class, be ready for the big explosion that they will drop on you.
> Next is to be a teacher’s pet. This is very simple and I think most of the students know that. I know you hate them to the bones but just make a little effort in carrying their stuff, greeting them always, following what they say, erasing the board for them and giving them compliments. Keep in mind that giving compliments have limitations, don’t exaggerate it because they will find out that you are only faking everything nice you have done for them.
> Fourth is to be patient. Patient when it comes to their attitude. They are really mean and rude to students because they are terror professors, duh? Of course, those are their signature characteristics. You should not look gloomy and angry in class because that will only trigger their senses to punish you more.
> Another one is to be diligent to do the assigned seatworks, homeworks and projects. In that way, they will not get mad at you because you will be ready when you come to class. Some of the students copy their seat works and home works and I think it is normally practiced. I know it’s bad but what can a student do if he/she doesn't really get the lesson. :D Just don’t do it
> Next, don’t get caught saying bad things to them. I know some of the students always tell their never ending complaints for the whole day about their terror professors but never ever do that in public areas or near the faculty room because you already know what will be the consequences. (YOU’LL DIE!!!) * Extra Tip: use nicknames so they would not have the idea that you are talking about them. Just make sure that you won’t describe them detail by detail. Again, if they caught you doing that… you know what will happen.
> Lastly, if all else fails, students must be responsible enough about their actions. This is like the summary of all I said in the previous tips. Do their requirements, study hard, try to pass their exams, listen to them, be active in class and respect them. Think of the reasons why they are like that. Do not always think about yourself first. Maybe they have reasons why they are acting like that. Just do your best in your class and be always positive so that it will make good reactions to the both of you.
Yes, they are witches, devils, piece of hell in earth, your gigantic heavy cross or so whatever, but….a big BUT..they are still our professors and we should always respect them. Just kill them with your nice attitude and always have a clear and smiling face whenever the going gets tougher and tougher. Oh, one more thing, make them as your inspiration to strive harder than you are doing right now. They just want their students to excel and when you excel, they will never bother you again. If there is a chance that they will still bother you, you’ll be confident enough because you know what to do. Or someday you can brag about yourself to them when you really score big time in your future career. Study, study, study. It is hard; tell me about it, but surely it will pay off nicely.

it was nicely written. i'm sure every student can relate to this :)
TumugonBurahinThis is something which I can relate to :)
TumugonBurahinIn my opinion, this is true.. to some extent. But some terror professors often want to bring out the best in every student and mediocrity isn't the best solution to being "invisible" to them. This article is very enlightening. I hope that you would write more about students like me :D
