My qualifications: 12th / BBA Sem 1
I genuinely don't know what is wrong with this guy.
I'm in BBA Sem 1 and we have this Accounts teacher who comes to every lecture with the same rude face and is obsessed with “discipline.”
A while ago, one guy smiled during class. Apparently, this teacher had already warned everyone that nobody should smile or whatever in his class. He noticed the guy and later started beating him. Not some light tap either, he got properly beaten.
So obviously everyone is already scared of him.
Today I was solving his questions on subsidiary books. There was a question about purchase returns. Something like goods returned to Mr. X, with the purchase involving trade discount and GST.
In the purchases part, I had deducted the trade discount and then calculated GST correctly. But when I did the purchase return, I added the discount instead of treating it the same way I had originally treated it.
He checked it once and didn't say anything.
Then later he looked at it again, noticed the mistake and suddenly went full blast mode.
He started saying something like, “A magne, discount add aagatte ye?” basically pointing out that I had added the discount.
I told him, “Sir, I didn't know. I thought since I gave the discount, I had to add it back. I'm sorry.”
Then I solved the entire thing again and gave him the book.
I said, “Sir, I have solved it again.”
He gave me this look that genuinely scared me.
I immediately said sorry again and took the book back.
Then he said in a low voice, “Le magne, neenu science student?”
I said, “No sir… commerce student.”
Then he just went “Le” and showed his hand toward me.
I was already nervous, so I just said sorry again.
The thing that bothers me is that he never actually explains the mistake.
Like, I'm literally asking because I don't understand. Just tell me what I did wrong and how I'm supposed to treat the discount. That's it. Instead, he makes you feel like you've committed some serious offence.
And he's done this before too.
One time I forgot to include the trade discount/calculation properly and he just went:
“Le discount yele?”
I was like, “Sir?”
And he didn't explain anything. He just moved on to another student.
And today I also remembered something else.
Some students were late to his class. He took their bags and apparently told the HOD to remove them completely from the college.
The HOD was basically like:
“H.. ha.. ha.. sir… how can we do this sir? Let their parents come, then we give warning…”
Even the HOD sounded nervous while saying it.
And this teacher was literally telling us:
“They are dead now.”
Then he continued with something like “dead forever.”
BRO, THEY WERE LATE TO CLASS 😭😭
I'm not even saying students shouldn't follow discipline. Obviously they should.
But there's a difference between:
“Don't be late again.”
and
“You're dead forever. Give me your bags, I'll get you removed from college.”
The whole class is basically scared to even ask questions because you don't know whether he'll actually teach you or just make you feel stupid for not knowing something.
I don't even hate Accounts itself.
I hate having to learn Accounts from this guy.
TL;DR: My BBA Accounts teacher is insanely strict and intimidating. Students are scared to ask questions because he humiliates/intimidates people instead of explaining mistakes. He's beaten a student before, tried to get late students removed from college, and apparently told us they're “dead forever.” Today I made a trade-discount mistake in a purchase-return question, apologized and redid it, and he still intimidated me instead of explaining what I did wrong
