Primary School Science Teacher used to torture us mentally

I was in Std.3. Do u remember those hot days in school just after lunch.

U just had lunch and were from playing football in the scorching sun.

We had one Science teacher who would torture us during his afternoon lessons.

He would walk into class and ask us to open the windows so that fresh air can enter.

He then would remove a cold half litre sprite soda. Saizo we are all thirsty and craving for that soda. As the lesson progressed he would take sips from the soda and every time he would belch and then make a sound like aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh yaani to show us vile soda imeingia vizuri.

That was mental torture to most of us. A fourty minute mental torture and if it was a double lesson that would be 80mins of torture.

Why would a fully grown man want to feelisha class 3 kids?I met him today and remembered that ordeal. I asked him why he did that and he just laughed.

kwenu std 3 walikuwa na afternoon classes? kwetu/siku zetu full day ilianza class 4…

He was those hot tempered teachers. We used to fear him. He was known to be good with the cane.

Even today when I met him he looked sick. I guess ni stress za hizo hasira zake

Kwetu ungepatikana ukila class ungekula viboko za jela

This must be one of those private school problems. Mimi sikuona Science hadi class four… class three afternoon lessons zilikuwa myths.

It is funny how teachers have a lasting effect on our lives. My all time favourite was Mrs Gitucha (RIP) who used to come to class with loads of Patcos. Whoever answered a ‘hard’ question correctly got one.
