* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': While she does agree to teach Luz magic, [[Characters/TheOwlHouseEdaClawthorne Eda Clawthorne]] tends to not be very motivated into giving out actual lessons. Most of what Luz learns from her is by total accident. In some fairness, up until Luz learned the light spell, Eda didn't think humans ''could'' learn magic. [[note]]Witches as a species have an extra organ that powers their magic.[[/note]] It also doesn't help that Luz's way of doing magic is so different from a normal witch that Eda had to study wild magic herself before she could teach Luz anything.

Sometimes, this person started out as a young, EnthusiasticNewbieTeacher, who got beaten down by rowdy kids and an uncaring system. There's usually one person who will find that their no-longer-gives-a-shit attitude makes them a CoolTeacher anyway, or at the very least an occasional [[TheConfidant confidant]]. They're likely to seek solace in [[DrowningMySorrows the bottom of a bottle]]. It's often implied, if not outright stated, that even their home life doesn't offer them much respite, either.
