16 Teachers Who Deserve An A+

Sometimes there's more to teaching than just spewing out facts and hoping some students have spongy enough brains to soak it all in. With a little humor and fun, a lesson is brought to life and can actually have such a positive effect on a class. My aunt was one of those teachers who liked to mess with her students from time to time. She told me of a "pop-quiz" test that she handed out on April 1st that included ridiculous questions like, "there were 7,000 Greek soldiers in the Battle of Thermopylae, name them!" Well, you can imagine the surprised and horrified look on the students' faces. According to my aunt, it was priceless. 

Following in the tradition of hilarious teachers, we've compiled some of our favorites from all around and want to give them a big ole "A+" in the humor department. So pick up your #2 pencils and take some notes, these are a few brilliant people that anyone can learn from!
