Your gateway to endless inspiration
9. does your tc drink or smoke?
He drinks :) there’s a pub down the road from my school and on some Friday nights (before lockdown) he would go with his friends to the pub and drink. Others have seen him there a couple of times as well haha
9. Has your tc ever told you about their personal life?
Yup bits and bobs.
I’m indecisive so I’m doing q8 from both July challenges 😂 @baeby-tc @sheisthesweetest-tc for the questions :))
8. would you be willing to become a teacher and teach your tc’s subject if it meant you two could be together?
No no no no no no x 10. I could never be a teacher. I do not have the patience to be a teacher. I would probably be fired within the first week anyway even if I were to be one..
I’ve thought about this a lot and the only year group I’d be willing to teach is Reception/Year 1 because those kids are so cute and some what tolerable but even then they’re crazy and super energetic and I just don’t think I’m cut out to be a teacher.
Also I had to tutor both my younger siblings for the 11+ and yeh no I could just never be a teacher lmao.
But subject wise I have no problems with English itself it’s one of my favourite subjects :))
8. Has your tc ever helped you with personal problems?
No it’s weird though cause he’s always like you can talk to me if you ever need to ladida every time I talk to him - I just don’t have enough gusto to actually do that. And also more generally because of the type of person I am (I don’t like talking about my problems with other people) I just haven’t ever taken him up on that offer.
But it’s super sweet that he lets me know he’s there yk. If any of your teachers ever say that to you and you genuinely have a problem go to them because they’ll actually care about what you have to say and will be there for you.
7. name one song that reminds you of your tc and explain why that song reminds you of them.
I’ve been thinking about this because I saw the question earlier and I don’t have a specific song that reminds me of him in particular.
But a song that I feel like most tcc involved people will relate to is the song Jealous by Labrinth. If you haven’t heard it just glance at the lyrics it’ll all make sense.
Also I really like how the song portrays a different perspective of what jealous means. It’s not always spiteful and malicious.
Question from @baeby-tc
Firstly, sorry for how deadly silent I’ve been. A lot has happened and there was a period of time I wasn’t really feeling my tc BUT ever since I saw him not too long ago during qrntn (my school re-opened) things have changed haha. For better or worse idk??
Also because I’m kinda late here are the answers for the first six days :))
1. What was your first impression of your tc?
This is going to be really hard to explain without going in depth about how I first met him. But to explain it briefly he came off as a very bold, friendly person ofc he was gorgeous too. But he also seemed like one of those teachers who’s genuinely invested in their students which was nice because I haven’t had many of those :)
2. Is your tc single or taken? or are you unsure? and are you single or taken?
I’m pretty sure he’s taken and that his gf is another teacher. They arrive at and leave school together. I’ve seen them twice now. Around twice before qrntn and once more during the time lockdown was kind of lifted and I was at school. Which obviously means they were like together during qrntn because no mixing with other households (as we knoW). Also some of my friends have seen him and her together at other times as well haha. Eventhough reason would suggest he’s taken it’s not something I know for sure. So maybe he just has a female roommate?? Haha okay no. That sounds stupid.
3. How long have you had feelings for them, and what made you realize that you did?
I’m not sure tbh towards the start I definitely did but then it kinda started to be an on and off thing (hence my absence on here). I realised I did when I started to really care about what they had to say about my work and I started to care about how I was coming across to them. It was also when I started having conversations with them outside of the classroom that I really gained some insight on what he’s like as a person rather than just a teacher yk??
4. Have you kept in touch with them during quarantine/online learning?
During online learning I was kinda slacking off so no BUT THEN my school reopened and when I went in and had him for actual lessons it was fucking great. And I actually ended up having a really good conversation with him during the middle of the week in his office. I wasn’t supposed to see him but he wanted to give me back a grade or something and asked me to like come in - so I did. And then he kinda like turned it into a conversation but yeh the energy was gooood.
5. Is your tc more of the athletic type, the nerdy type or the artsy type?
Athletic type! As well as being an English teacher he’s also a coach for one of the sports teams at my school. I’ve seen him a couple of times because of that near the school field or lugging around sports gear haha.
Also he’s definitely nerdy about his subject. He loves to use big words that no one understands and we have to get him to give the definition of and he just seems like a very learned person haha
6. If you and your tc were in high school together, do you think you’d be friends?
That’s a really good question and the truth is idk. We’re quite similar but we’re also quite different. We’d probably be taking the same subjects and playing the same sports so I’d at the very least be acquaintances with him but friends? Ns. Maybe a better answer is I don’t see why we wouldn’t be :)
I got these questions from @baeby-tc and @sheisthesweetest-tc . Then I kinda mixed and matched them like @honeydewloveme :)
