Emily Gibson is the most annoying teacher I have ever had. It's like watching a small child play school. She looks like she's about 16 and acts like she's about 16. Her vocabulary consists of "um" and "essentially". I tally mark her use of "essentially" in class because there is nothing better to do, and she averages about 15 uses of that word in a 55 minute class period. Not only does she use it incorrectly half the time, but the other half of the time it isn't even needed. She begins every sentence with the sound, "um" and pauses in the middle of every sentence to say it again. Her "teaching" method is to basically read our textbook to us in class. She stands and reads from a peice of paper. That's it. Because of this, she gets tongue tied every 5 minutes because she's pretending that she isn't reading and she actually knows what she's saying. And the fact that she knows what she is reading is incredibly doubtful... since she obviously needs to read it to say it.
Honestly, the class isn't even that hard, It's listening to her "teach" that makes me want to smash my head against the wall as I walk out of that classroom. I feel like this woman should have actually completed puberty and showed signs of intelligence and maturity before she was just let loose in a room.
