The fact that "love" is just crossed out, with no feedback, says a lot about the state of mind of the teacher, I think. It would have been so easy to write something like, "Close, but, unfortunately, not."
I actually love the answer for giving an example of a risk. Just writing that is a huge risk but should also be interpreted as such. I think that is so clever and applaud their thinking outside the box.
My mom was a math teacher, who made her own computer modeling program, and wrote children's science books. She had a bachelor's in mathematics and a masters in teaching. Literally the only reason she did not have a PhD was it would cost her more than she would have made before retirement. There was nothing I couldn't ask her, even in college. I lost her in January. I miss her very much.
Thank you all. It's been very hard. Especially during the holidays, as this year was to be the first time in 18 years that I could spend it with her...
Why are history teachers always the coolest and most likable people? I had a positive experience with most if not all of my history teachers throughout high school, maybe there’s some level of dedication that history teachers have to knowledge and their students that other teachers don’t have. One way or another, keep up the great work.
My 8th grade teacher got engaged AND still managed to show us the artifacts he found from the civil war and local native Americans whilst having road trips with his fam.
I was wondering about that "Mommy should do less of this" question. Sounds like someone at that school is looking to start a witch hunt among the parents
My parents couldn't do my homework starting in 6th grade. Yes, 6th grade. Being the oldest also means I had to and still have to help my brother and sister with their homework. It's funny seeing my parents debate over what 6x8 equals when I'm helping my brother with calculus
Same, but the main problem was language barrier and cultural differences. My parents lived in Kasachstan and we moved to Germany when i was 6 years old. My father could help me with math, but the teacher was of the "We do it as i am teaching here."-type. And they wondered, why i called math monotone and unimaginative.
One of my teachers in middle school doubled as both my science and history teacher so when we would be studying prehistory in actual history class, he made sure we were doing something around fossils and radiocarbon dating in science. Best combo ever and an awesome guy all around
Last year of high school I had an economics test where they asked what measures would I take to increase the birth rate in a country. I answered that I would decrease the quality of the condoms. The teacher was not happy!
Actually most developed countries have too low of birth rates and need to improve them. By this end of this century, the qorld population will decrease for maybe the first time in history!
4:00 ... The size and pressure force of that giant red X over the answer "love" gives us more information about the teacher's love life than that entire test gives us about the student's knowledge of science.
Toughest test I ever took was 1 question. “What did you learn in my class?” I also forgot to submit a cover letter on an essay for this same teacher. I took a piece of notebook paper and wrote “cover letter” on it and submitted it. He gave me credit as I met the requirements. That was an awesome teacher and did also work around the technicalities of assignments.
This is hilarious. My philosophy teacher in HS always put an extra credit question on all test, and he had a sense of humor. If you didn't know one but did something creative, he would put: Nice one. 1/2 a point. Edit: Answering your question. My story was a little sad, my dad always review my homework, made me study math, learnt the tables up to 15, etc. He was very involved in my school life. Sadly, he died when I was 11 and my mother couldn't help me the way my father did, so I just kept doing what he taught me to do to study and to this day, if I have to study something, I still use my dad's method. In simpler terms, instead of only teaching me topics, he taught me how to study properly.
My parents haven't been able to help me since about 3rd grade. However, my husband and I are both college educated. I'm a high school math teacher so I can help throughout high school. I'm pretty sure we could help with college work too since we both did that in college.
I remember being TA in high school. The class I was TA for was full of freshmen who didn't take class seriously. The funniest responses I saw on a test was from someone who hadn't eaten breakfast, because it was a 1st period class, and was hungry. Every free response answer the student wrote said something about Subway. It was funny the first 2 questions, but by question 6 in grading free responses on that particular test, I was shaking my head. The student didn't do well the entire class and was either sleeping or texting during class. I just used the time in that class to prepare for exams, as we would be doing exam reviews on the same day I had exams in a higher level course that used similar material.
Funny story. When I was younger we had tests where we had to not only spell words but use them in sentences. I didn’t always remember the definition of the word and in those cases I wrote “____ is a word.” Technically I got it right.
My parents still help my sister with her homework and so do I and right now she's in 5th grade and I feel like I could help her out throughout high-school In most subjects except for maybe English, Spanish or any other language course. Mr. Terry you are a great teacher to all your students and you are a great youtuber, I hope you have a great rest of the year.
I'm grateful for teachers who can laugh and reward wit, since no one is expected to remember what they learned in school unless it is applicable to the task at hand, and wit provides insight into the nature of the worker and how dedicated they will be to their job.
10:11 Technically this is a ridiculously smart kid, centi means hundred (at least in the context of centimeters) so if I have 300 centimetres and take the hundred out I have 3.... so 300 centimetres minus centi equals 3 meters
Some parents help their kids with their homework? Damn, that must be nice. In elementary school, I just wasn't allowed to do anything else until it was done until I learned how to lie about doing it at school or on the bus.
My parents stopped being able to help with home work senior year of high school I then went to an Art University and Received a Bachelor of Fine Art but would ask them from time to time for some creative input if I was tapped out on a project. Thankfully my parents were super supportive of my schooling and always encouraged learning about everything you can
For those answers you wouldn't consider witty I'd agree. However, I was also a child who took everything literally. Honestly, not on purpose, that's just who I was.
My dad helped me with third year college linear algebra. But it was a one-time thing. I helped my mom in programming classes if that counts (and so did my did. Much more than me in fact). We're all programmers now.
Growing up with a split childhood (bouncing between a stable life with my grandparents and an unstable life with my dad), there were definite phases to homework questions with each: With my dad, it felt like there was a 'cut-off date' to the help I could expect from him. Being mostly in the late 1970s and early 1980s, I felt he was a (usually) reliable source for information that existed between World War II and the moon landings - anything 'newer' than that, he was "too old to know"; anything older than that, he was in the same boat I was. With my grandparents, it was an entirely different universe. They'd invested in a Time-Life library, got me Safari Cards, had a rather impressive set of (albeit older; circa 1956?) encyclopedias, etc and made a pleasurable experience of looking things up together - usually limiting their actual input to which references to use for what kind of information. Though I'm half-tempted to try looking up my 4th-grade science teacher and making him regrade my solar system project, as those encyclopedias had said that Pluto wasn't a true planet so I had left it out of my model.
Well you hit the last laugh given it’s redefining into a dwarf planet after ceres was discovered anc stopped the communities arbitrary singing out of Pluto among the other dwarf planets in the area
I think my mom was unable to help me with math from 7th grade onward, because in 6th grade I got put in advanced placement. So pretty much basic algebra and up from age ~13.
On the one hand, I did not ask my parents very often for help (as I was too lazy to do homework to begin with). On the other hand, I knew when it would be worthwhile to ask my parents for help. For instance, I asked my mother very often when it came to graphics and design, as she is a typographer by profession. I also asked my father when it came to political questions, or questions which were not part of the curriculum (like how a Zener diode actually works). But I never asked my parents for help in Math or Physics, or Languages homework or to figure out a complex question.
My dad is in Mensa, went to college on a calculus scholarship and is a published author and historian. Any homework he couldn't help me with, my teachers probably couldn't complete either... It could be a little intimidating at times. It's a lot to try and live up to. He was a good teacher as well, though so that helped a lot.
the "I think my mom should do less of this..." question to me seems like it is some sort of counseling. What do you like about mom/dad? What do you wish he/she didn't do? It's giving me therapy vibes.
With the last one my daughter didn't exactly plagarize my name but she added the option to make me a chaperone for a field trip that involved hiking in the woods like a week after I had surgery on my foot. I was a bit surprised when I got the letter back about being a chaperone. She was like well I wanted you to come with. She was 9 at the time.
To answer the question at 6:56 High School..because once math starts to decline into algebra and geometry thats when parents math skills and knowledge (or mine at least) start to tank down
Oh yes, more of the greatest stuff. By the way, my most favourite teacher ever was the 7th grade history teacher. Now give me all the virtual appreciation points
4:20 The origins of the word press are related to the initial printing. But sometimes, they take it too literally, they doesn't press the matrices to paper, but people.
6:55 depends on what homework. My mom is a high school English teacher so if she wanted to she could have helped through all of high school with English and German, but when it comes to math she was helplessly lost. But I didnt really need help past middle school. 8:30 maybe it is a teacher trying to probe for abusive households? Looking for answers like "hitting me" or something? Feels weird out of the blue, but maybe the teacher ahs reason to think some kids have it rough at home idk.
When I was in High School I got so good at writing excuses, everyone would ask me to write one for them too. I always signed them with my own name, and nobody ever caught on.
12:17 For those who don't know Spanish: Go to the kitchen Be careful Open the refrigerator Pick the cakes Heat the soup Prepare the potatoes Slice the bread.
At 15, my Dad told me he couldn't help me with my school work. But I hadn't asked him for help since 5th grade, I think he was just trying to prevent me asking him stuff he didn't know.
Really wish my middle school history teacher was like this guy, I would've definitely payed more attention and had at least a B average instead of D average
I remember when I was a little kid, there was an assignment that said "What is your mom's favorite thing to do". I thought really hard on this and decided to write down what she did the most, because I figured that meant it was her hobby. Yeah, I wrote down "Her favorite thing to do is clean the house". I showed my parents and my mom got upset, my dad framed it and put it on his work desk to laugh every morning lol. Also, I only signed my mom's name on an assignment or whatever it was once, and that's because I signed it as Mother in cursive lol. Yeah, the teacher called my parents in and I got grounded in front of the class. One of the most embarassing times when I was younger.
4:48 for the "how do you know if this number is even?" question technically the teacher is correct, but they are also wrong. The right correct answer would be "I know it's an even number, because 68 is divisible by 2, and all even numbers can be divided by 2"
I always hated the “explain how you know” questions when the problem was so straightforward. Like what do you expect of me? To just say that 8 + 2 is 10? I already said that in the answer!
dude i love history teachers except my 7th grade one bc she was a B but my current sophmore history teacher is amazing and has the best sense of humor in the school
I remember as a child we had those assignments where we traced letters and I didn't have a pencil. I kept tracing them with my finger and I kept calling the teacher over to tell her I was done, she was so confused & told me to do it again. Took her a few trips over to figure out what the issue was.
When it came to History, Geography, Math and Science I had eclipsed my parents ability to help me by Grade 4 or 5. However when it came to English, I still can't eclipse my Moms knowledge of Language studies and I still call her from time to time to assist with wording/structure for work projects. My dad taught me how to drink beer. Still do to this day.
I don't think there's a problem with your parents helping you with your homework in college. It's their job to make sure you succeed, no matter what stage in life you're in.
From google search Saturn had two wives or consort goddesses, both of whom represented two very different sides of his character. These two goddesses were Ops and Lua. Saturn was a roman god
Hah! They helped me pretty much up to when I went to uni. My mum was a geography teacher and my dad an engineer. I obviously didn't ask them all the time, but I did chemistry at A-level and so dad gave me some interesting lectures, and my mum assisted with some of my GCSE coursework. My sister is also a geography teacher, and I took politics and law at uni, so we swap notes -- she does the geographical stuff, I look at the politics of it and we trade RUclips videos :))).
For me there was no age when my parents couldn't help with my homework, because whenever I was taking too long they forced their help on me, even though it usually wasn't helpful and just made things more difficult as they got progressively more and more frustrated without letting me do anything until I was done and pushing me until I cried. The ol' trauma classic.
I never tried forging my mother's signature, 1 her handwriting was too neat, 2 her memory was too sharp, so if it was ever questioned, she'd know something was up. My dad on the other hand.... I traced his signature several times until I could replicate it on my planner whenever the teacher left notes that I did not want my parents to see. The teacher never did catch on to the forgery, but he was sharp enough to notice that mom paid more attention to what was going on academically and started specifically requesting her signature rather than a parent's signature xD Sixth grade wasn't a gand year
first time i forged my parents signature was 5th grade it was a good grade test that i just forgot to get it signed, all my dads said was you should of used your mother's name they don't know that one
I never got help with home work. My mom is German, and at the time did not know any English. Funny fact, the 1st grade teacher thought I had a learning disability because they did not recognize that my speech was a mix of German and English. My dad had the mentality that he did not get any help growing up and he graduated with a Bachelors. My grandparents were illiterate, dropping out in 4th/5th to work (1930's). My grandfather lived to see me graduate with my Bachelors, my grandmother lived to see me graduate with my 1st Masters. One of the rare occasions where I saw them both cry.
"At what age would your parents not be able to consistently help with your homework?" I think I could have asked one of my parents for help with all of my homework until sometime in college. It was just a matter of picking the right parent. My mom is good at history, art, and music, but not math and science. My dad is fantastic at math and science, no help with art. Both are pretty good in English. However, in 18 years of schooling I NEVER asked my parents for help. I would never. It shows weakness.
What if one of your parents is math professor? Then, theoretically, they would always be able to help with your math homework. Well, I say that but, I’m a masters student and I’ve seen ‘calculus 2’ questions that I had absolutely no idea how to answer… primarily from colleges that just made the content way too difficult for no good reason.
I never really needed my parents help at all but the first time they actually couldn't understand what I was doing was algebra in Middle School 7th grade
Here we don't do signatures on report cards, we have a digital system that sends it directly to the parents. And the focus on grades isn't that big until you get to final exams anyway. Anyway, back in my time, most forged signatures were from 6th grade and up, and it was most often to skip class once in a while. And we didn't do it ourselves, there were usually one or two girls with very good handwriting that could do the favour and get away with it. Then they could also earn a little extra lunch money.
I faked my father's signature once by taking something with his signature, holding it against the window and putting the thing I needed a signature on above it
The fact that "love" is just crossed out, with no feedback, says a lot about the state of mind of the teacher, I think. It would have been so easy to write something like, "Close, but, unfortunately, not."
Or maybe to say "It wasn't mend in general, it was asked for a physical force"
Totally agree with you on this… I don’t understand teachers who think this response was okay… shame on them!
I would have given him credit for that answer
Don't see any problem with just crossing it
Do teachers in the US usually really feel like they have to comment any answer?
They crossed it out because their spouse cheated on em and they been listening to depressing R&B
7:21 I think this one was one of the best actually. It shows the student clearly understoof the task and wrote it as short as humanly possible.
Teacher decided to say that works.
Is Good teacher
You could say they understood the assignment!
I actually love the answer for giving an example of a risk. Just writing that is a huge risk but should also be interpreted as such. I think that is so clever and applaud their thinking outside the box.
My mom was a math teacher, who made her own computer modeling program, and wrote children's science books. She had a bachelor's in mathematics and a masters in teaching. Literally the only reason she did not have a PhD was it would cost her more than she would have made before retirement.

6:55 depends on what homework. My mom is a high school English teacher so if she wanted to she could have helped through all of high school with English and German, but when it comes to math she was helplessly lost. But I didnt really need help past middle school.
8:30 maybe it is a teacher trying to probe for abusive households? Looking for answers like "hitting me" or something? Feels weird out of the blue, but maybe the teacher ahs reason to think some kids have it rough at home idk.
When I was in High School I got so good at writing excuses, everyone would ask me to write one for them too. I always signed them with my own name, and nobody ever caught on.
12:17 For those who don't know Spanish:
Go to the kitchen
Be careful
Open the refrigerator
Pick the cakes
Heat the soup
Prepare the potatoes
Slice the bread.
This dude seems like a very chill teacher
At 15, my Dad told me he couldn't help me with my school work. But I hadn't asked him for help since 5th grade, I think he was just trying to prevent me asking him stuff he didn't know.
Really wish my middle school history teacher was like this guy, I would've definitely payed more attention and had at least a B average instead of D average
Kids are clever. You ask a stupid question and you wonder why you don't get the answer you wanted. What we need are smarter teachers.
12:37 and he even drew the urinal. This kid is gonna be a Quality artist.
3:52 How the dude said that was smooth and funny
1:13--There is not a single thought in that dog's brain, and I love him for it
Oh my lord.. I haven’t watched you in sooooo long! You are amazing! When I discovered you 3 years ago, I didn’t expect you to be right here!
I remember when I was a little kid, there was an assignment that said "What is your mom's favorite thing to do". I thought really hard on this and decided to write down what she did the most, because I figured that meant it was her hobby. Yeah, I wrote down "Her favorite thing to do is clean the house". I showed my parents and my mom got upset, my dad framed it and put it on his work desk to laugh every morning lol.
Also, I only signed my mom's name on an assignment or whatever it was once, and that's because I signed it as Mother in cursive lol. Yeah, the teacher called my parents in and I got grounded in front of the class. One of the most embarassing times when I was younger.
15:00 A six-sided polygon is indeed a stop sign, but (I think) only in Brunei
“They gave him a discount”
Yeah, the five finger discount, lol
Kid says "because I am ALL WAYS right". LOL
5:10 I mean they aren’t wrong. I died laughing at that one.
4:48 for the "how do you know if this number is even?" question technically the teacher is correct, but they are also wrong. The right correct answer would be "I know it's an even number, because 68 is divisible by 2, and all even numbers can be divided by 2"
I always hated the “explain how you know” questions when the problem was so straightforward. Like what do you expect of me? To just say that 8 + 2 is 10? I already said that in the answer!
dude i love history teachers except my 7th grade one bc she was a B but my current sophmore history teacher is amazing and has the best sense of humor in the school
I remember as a child we had those assignments where we traced letters and I didn't have a pencil. I kept tracing them with my finger and I kept calling the teacher over to tell her I was done, she was so confused & told me to do it again. Took her a few trips over to figure out what the issue was.
When it came to History, Geography, Math and Science I had eclipsed my parents ability to help me by Grade 4 or 5. However when it came to English, I still can't eclipse my Moms knowledge of Language studies and I still call her from time to time to assist with wording/structure for work projects. My dad taught me how to drink beer. Still do to this day.
Saturn was not a single lady I'm dead 😂
7:01 my parents would stop when I graduate from school.
To me history teachers are to this day one of the most important people from my own school days. Happy to watch your content. Keep on teaching bro!
By middle school when it came to doing homework with or without help, I’m on my own…happy holidays Mr terry and all!!!
I don't think there's a problem with your parents helping you with your homework in college. It's their job to make sure you succeed, no matter what stage in life you're in.
The "get up and deal with it" kid is ahead of his peers
From google search
Saturn had two wives or consort goddesses, both of whom represented two very different sides of his character. These two goddesses were Ops and Lua.
Saturn was a roman god
I love how the teacher got the even question wrong too. Even numbers are divisible by two. Odd numbers aren't.
Hah! They helped me pretty much up to when I went to uni. My mum was a geography teacher and my dad an engineer. I obviously didn't ask them all the time, but I did chemistry at A-level and so dad gave me some interesting lectures, and my mum assisted with some of my GCSE coursework.
My sister is also a geography teacher, and I took politics and law at uni, so we swap notes -- she does the geographical stuff, I look at the politics of it and we trade RUclips videos :))).
The way I see these answers. I imagine the kids are thinking "if it's stupid but works. It isn't stupid"
I loved the one "It's all fun and games until Darth Vader comes."
For me there was no age when my parents couldn't help with my homework, because whenever I was taking too long they forced their help on me, even though it usually wasn't helpful and just made things more difficult as they got progressively more and more frustrated without letting me do anything until I was done and pushing me until I cried. The ol' trauma classic.
I never tried forging my mother's signature, 1 her handwriting was too neat, 2 her memory was too sharp, so if it was ever questioned, she'd know something was up.
My dad on the other hand.... I traced his signature several times until I could replicate it on my planner whenever the teacher left notes that I did not want my parents to see. The teacher never did catch on to the forgery, but he was sharp enough to notice that mom paid more attention to what was going on academically and started specifically requesting her signature rather than a parent's signature xD
Sixth grade wasn't a gand year
first time i forged my parents signature was 5th grade it was a good grade test that i just forgot to get it signed, all my dads said was you should of used your mother's name they don't know that one
@@dez135 lol
Mom stopped helping me at Calc. She just looked at me and laughed. She was like stop asking me this shit. 😂
I love how in thumbnail you are laughing at the answer but in the video you said it's rude
2:46 Am I the only one who finds dumptrucks pretty cool.
9:40 - Poor Bob, being the square, he probably doesn't get invited to a lot of parties.
I never got help with home work. My mom is German, and at the time did not know any English. Funny fact, the 1st grade teacher thought I had a learning disability because they did not recognize that my speech was a mix of German and English. My dad had the mentality that he did not get any help growing up and he graduated with a Bachelors. My grandparents were illiterate, dropping out in 4th/5th to work (1930's). My grandfather lived to see me graduate with my Bachelors, my grandmother lived to see me graduate with my 1st Masters. One of the rare occasions where I saw them both cry.
"At what age would your parents not be able to consistently help with your homework?"
I think I could have asked one of my parents for help with all of my homework until sometime in college. It was just a matter of picking the right parent. My mom is good at history, art, and music, but not math and science. My dad is fantastic at math and science, no help with art. Both are pretty good in English.
However, in 18 years of schooling I NEVER asked my parents for help. I would never. It shows weakness.
you had me rollin i almost peed my pants lol so hard at those answers
“My dad is Thornton Mellon, so my math homework is done for me by NASA,” said Jason Mellon.
7:20 is one of the most memorable answers.
What if one of your parents is math professor? Then, theoretically, they would always be able to help with your math homework.
Well, I say that but, I’m a masters student and I’ve seen ‘calculus 2’ questions that I had absolutely no idea how to answer… primarily from colleges that just made the content way too difficult for no good reason.
I never really needed my parents help at all but the first time they actually couldn't understand what I was doing was algebra in Middle School 7th grade
Here we don't do signatures on report cards, we have a digital system that sends it directly to the parents. And the focus on grades isn't that big until you get to final exams anyway.
Anyway, back in my time, most forged signatures were from 6th grade and up, and it was most often to skip class once in a while.
And we didn't do it ourselves, there were usually one or two girls with very good handwriting that could do the favour and get away with it. Then they could also earn a little extra lunch money.
I faked my father's signature once by taking something with his signature, holding it against the window and putting the thing I needed a signature on above it
3:59 If you just realized that, I'd be shocked. 😂
Saturn was not a single late, cuz Saturn's a dude. lol
