I've only ever had one or two bad English teachers (both the same year! In seventh grade, we went through three different English teachers because they just got fed up with the students for that year and quit). One was an arrogant, snotty lady who just did the "Read the story in the book and write about it!" thing and played Solitaire on her computer. The next teacher could barely even speak English so I guess they just hired her as an emergency replacement. And the one who followed her was actually a really good English teacher.

For the most part, I get along with English teachers. But college professors are a bit different from school teachers because they're sort of allowed to do whatever they like. They can take forever to grade your papers, set the grading scale, determine what we should read or write about, determine the style of the writing. Considering that it's my first semester at this college and I'm still trying to get on my feet, I don't want to be stuck with a professor that makes everything difficult. :/
