I had a teacher the exact opposite. Completely ruthless about you doing the work, but patient and kind as long as it got done- And very pleasent.

That was my 8th & 9th grade Latin teacher. Failure was not an option. I can still decline nouns and demonstratives 50 years later.
I realized that 20 years after my last Latin class, I can sight read it pretty well, until I hit the word “ut” then everything falls apart.
