Teaching My Teacher

Imagine you are a lecturer at SQU. You had to teach your own school teacher, who is planning to complete her/his studying, and whom you hate the most. What would you do if Fatma AL-Ajimi's dream comes to reality?

Well, I might be annoyed the first time I see her in my class, yet I would treat her fairly. She should know that I was not a careless student as I'm now a lecturer, and I would admit to her jokingly: “I didn’t really like you when I was at school, yet that does not mean I hate you now.ˮ I've grown up. Generally, young students always blame their teachers; however, as we get older, we figure out that they are only trying to help.

At the beginning, I would treat her in a gracious way, but I won't let her pass my course from her first time.  She would have to fail at least once and then repeat it again with me. However, if I hated the teacher without any clear reasons, I would fully ignore her in the class. Indeed, she would never get an "A" with me, even if she gets full-marks in the tests.

I don’t really remember detesting any of my school teachers, yet if it was so, I would forget everything that happened and start a new page with him. I would treat him respectfully as he is one of the reasons that I'm in this position now. Therefore, he would be superior to any other students in the class.
