In Grade 3 our teacher gave us the opportunity to estimate the measurements of various items in the classroom - we spent quite a bit of time doing that and were then given the correct tools to compare the actual measurements with our estimations. We had so much fun and we were determined to get as close to the correct measurement as possible! I don't remember much about primary school, but this interactive session stands out.
Another element that brings back positive memories is when our teachers took us outside for lessons - there is something about being outside of the classroom that makes learning fun and easier to absorb. Because it was a traditional, conservative Afrikaans school in South Africa, anything out of the box was welcomed by us students!

One of the best and memorable experiences I had was during an acting course while I was in college. Our Professor's name was Mark Cryer and he insisted that we call him Mark. Mark was really true to himself and always had us laughing, even when the content of our monologue/scene was heavy. There is no particular moment that I recall, but I do remember that class being the one class I was always excited for. Mark always pushed you, and did not accept little effort. He moved around the class and allowed others to take lead in the class. He also gave us significant space to develop our own goals and how we would achieve them.

I believe my memorable experience was during my time at university. It was in my slavery and emancipation class. This class was specifically memorable because we were asked to create stories about the experience of the enslaved. And I found it relatable because it was the first time I felt like I was acknowledge as an African in my learning.

I once did a presentation in Uni and I got really amazing feedback from my classmates and even from the lecturer who will usually not have any encouraging thing to say to students on a normal day. I felt really good! I literally became the star student of this course!

My most memorable experiences in the classroom always involved guest speakers or in high school when we were watching a film about something. Perhaps geography lesson on the day of the tsunami in Japan, we watched the news together and discussed the topic to understand. It was a tragic day but the lesson was so relevant and well-done by the teacher. Also field trips and outside lessons!

In middle school, the most interactive classes we had were with our geography teacher Mr. Sharma. Whenever he taught a lesson, he would ask us to keep our Atlas next to us and whenever he came across the name of a place he would randomly call out and ask us to find that place on the map. There was so much beautiful chaos in the class to be the first one to spot the place. We always used to look forward to his sessions and some of us were even motivated to read the lesson in advance and find all the landmarks mentioned in it so that we could get the badge of honor in class :)

It was at Uni in an advocacy class. We held a "conference" where there were goals provided and each of us belonged to a different group of society (NGOs, business, communities, gov). it was really fun enacting how each group would act and tying to come to an agreement. each team wanted to win. it was very life-like. The teacher acted like a voice of doom always changing the dynamic and making it more realistic, it made even more fun

My favorite classes in secondary school and college were ones in which the desks were arranged in a circle, rather than the rows/columns or even small groups of tables. This promoted interaction and a leveling sense between all students; instead of all facing the front and answering the teacher, we questioned and responded to each other.

A university classmate had stage fright during a presentation - apparently because she couldn't express herself well in English - and the lecturer asked her to find a correlating concept in her Yoruba native tongue. She did so, and the lecturer got other Yoruba members of the class to validate, then gave her full marks and encouraged her to learn more of English.

It was exciting to work on a project and seeing the final tangible results. Teacher was very helpful and provided students with different design techniques.

Betting my high school English teacher that I would get a top grade in their class, and if I did then I would get their DOPE "Respect your Mother Earth" t-shirt, which did indeed happen. It was memorable because the shirt served as a constant reminder of my own personal success and recognition by the academic staff. The experience left me feeling both confident and valued, which I still remember that experience as.

My geology 101 professor took us on a hike and managed to find every different type of rock formation we had covered in class. It was a fun and tangible way to practice what we had learned in lectures. We all enjoyed being able to learn whilst being outside the formal classroom setting.

My best experience in class was when I was doing my honours degree at Rhodes University in the strategic management class. The teacher was Prof Louw and she was awesome. She made me enjoy strategic management. She made the class practical and fun. Every time, I would leave that class feeling like a business executive. She made us do practical case studies, which where very relevant and cases which we could relate to She was the best.

I remember in high school, we had to present in french class about the books we read. Many of the students had not read and so we made up stories that were no close to what the books said, funny thing it was that obvious. We all got bad grades that time......

Well i think for me what would resonate with me is my primary school science teacher who asked us to work in pairs and draw any insect. The catch was we were to draw the insects half body and. We were later asked to guess which insect this was. It was pretty hilarious.

It was memorable cz the teacher was kind and approachable. There was emotional connections with us and she could give us relatable examples to how math concepts are applicable in real life.

I felt energised when we had to present. It was a great to see that our voices were heard. She was funny and allowed us to enjoy the experience.

There is this English teach we had, she ised to those who made noise in class or came in late to go and sing. And there was this trending song that had her name in the lyrics, and one day a guy sang it and the teacher became emotional and let everybody else to go back to their seats. I like it because even though it wad a panishment, it didn't feel so and it still served the main goal of telling us that we shouldn't be late or make noise in class

During my secondary school, my chemistry teacher was really great at simplifying concepts, thus making the subject fun to learn. This really increased my interest in the subject and also I also dedicated extra hours to learn about specific topics. The chemistry class always motivated me to learn beyond what was covered in class.
