Hey guys,

So i am having a hard time dealing with my physics 8a gsi. From his horrible accent to his arrogant attitude and to his impersonal/uncaring treatment toward teaching, I just felt like I am not really learning a lot from him. The two hours long discussion to me feels like a complete waste of time. I am having a hard time to find someone to switch sections with and it is also (apparently) against class policy to sit in on another sections. So basically, I am stuck with this gsi. I know i can just ditch, but i really feel very frustrated that such a terrible teacher can become a gsi!!

What should I do? Any advice/horror story on terrible gsi? Any feedback and response will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys!
