My Professor

He really does me in... He mispronounces “America” Says he has a passport from somewhere-ica Therefore thinks he’s a citizen Then, oh Lord, we begin again And, he just goes on.... He has been a poor dirt farmer from long ago A businessman twice owned An accountant is what I am looking for Since this is what I am going towards No need for presentations... He can just talk it all out and about Explain Balance sheets and Income Statements All with his hands and to his credit He does not even have to edit I’m learning very well... My scores are low My eyes are heavy, half the class is asleep I keep wondering, “What am I doing here?” Please tell me, is it him or just me? Holly P. Moore (studying for class) October 2012

Oh it's him.......whenever you feel alert and enjoying the learning it's because the delivery is engaging...clearly he isn't so interesting as a teacher to keep you from those heavy eyelids. Good Luck!
