50 Teachers Who Surprised Students With Their Sense Of Humor

Even though sometimes teachers may not show it, most of them actually have a sense of humor – it’s just that they have an “authority figure” facade to keep.

Students are sharing all the instances their teachers surprised them with their sense of humor and they’ll make you wish yours would loosen up a bit. Witty t-shirts, funny slides and creative “punishments” – check out the hilariously creative teachers in the gallery below! After all, who said teachers have no sense of humor?

#19 A Series Of Unfortunate Events

“Professor Hendel, I am writing this email very embarrassingly. As I began writing my paper, I wrote out the template. Unfortunately, I could not remember your last name, so I filled it with something completely unprofessional. It was my intention to change the name before submission, but it completely slipped my mind. I attempted to resubmit the assignment but was unable to. I am so very sorry for the lack of respect that was used and again I apologize for this mistake. I hope that this does not reflect what you think of me and that the next assignment I can address by the correct name. Thank you again and I am so sorry. Thank you, Zoey”
