What does a professor do?
A professor is someone who instructs students in a wide variety of academic and vocational subjects beyond the high school level. They also conduct research and publish scholarly papers and books.
How do you know if a professor is a good friend?
1. They treat you as a friend, not just a student. The difference between feeling like a mere annoyance talking to a seemingly-superior professor that talks to you like a machine on a phone, and talking to one that you can relate to and feel comfortable talking about anything with, is tremendous.
How do you feel when a professor makes you feel incompetent?
When a professor makes you feel as if you are incompetent because you didn’t catch a certain phrase or reminder in a series of hundreds of other things said, it’s a horrible feeling. It’s also not so pleasant when a teacher always calls on the Hermione Granger of the class, without giving shyer students that raise their hand a chance to speak.
Do professors really care about your success?
Professors don’t always offer the best assistance, so appreciate when they go out of their way because they care about your success in class. If you ever feel annoyed at a professor reminding you about an assignment, you’ll miss it when you come across the professor that expects you to remember it all.
Do You Like professors with a good sense of humor?
I love professors that have a sense of humor, especially if they’re able to create humor out of a very bland topic to teach. Of course, being too humorous isn’t always good when it’s tied to a hard-to-grasp subject. Humor can be great to a degree, otherwise.
