Proof That Teachers Are Blessed Indeed!


I have been a teacher at some point myself, so I know that one of the best times in a teacher's life is when it's time to mark test/exam scripts (provided they are not too many). It's always a great time because you get so much comic relief from reading student's amazingly creative answers. I remember thinking students either don't want to leave blank spaces on their test papers or just like to play smart with the weird answers they come up with. The answers to the questions below will definitely give you something to laugh about. Indeed, teachers are living the good life - it's humour on demand!
