Teacher Syndrome

A syndrome educators experience in which they spend so much time in their specific field that they become fixated on it and discount other schools of thought. In extreme cases to the point of ignorantly insisting all other subjects should default to theirs.

Mr. Russel is suffering from teacher syndrome, he is habitually reminding everyone in his chemistry class that everything is chemistry, books are chemistry, math is chemistry, and PE is chemistry.

Textbook Teacher

A "teacher" who doesn't actually know how to teach so he/she just has students read out of the textbook, memorize vocab words from the textbook and answer review questions from the textbook. Now many "textbook teachers" often use documentaries in place or with of the textbook. On rare cases a decent teacher will resort to a textbook teacher like teaching strategy because the class is to immature to handle anything else, but in 90% of cases the teacher is just lazy or stupid. These teachers classes are undoubtedly the most boring classes you'll have, and make an ideal period for napping, texting, and finishing work for other classes.

Steve: Wow, that chemistry experiment was so awesome, that kid who sits next to me almost lit the whole room on fire. It was sick! Did your class do it?

Joe: No we just read the directions for the experiment in the textbook in class. Mr. Smith is kind of a textbook teacher.

Steve: That sucks.

techanic

n.

Anyone who works with or has expertise in anything technical. Techanics, much like their sibling the 'mechanic', are placed in situations of similar power with regards to screwing you over monetarily without you even knowing.

Most of us have a techanic we go to that we can trust when we have questions about building a website, or buying a computer so when we go shopping we won't get gouged on the prices.

I went to best buy to purchase a new computer, but the techanic up there just kept trying to sell me features I didn't think I needed, and quoted me a $2999 on a new basic system!

Josh, my techanic, says Web 2.0 is overrated.
