In order to teach effectively, one must not only be aware of which behaviours constitute “good” teaching behaviours, but also avoid those behaviours which are perceived as “poor” teaching behaviours. The present study investigates students’ and faculty’s perception of ineffective teaching behaviours. We asked both groups to identify which teaching behaviours they perceived as the worst behaviours. We also asked which behaviours they experienced the most in their current program/place of employment. In general, students and faculty agree about which behaviours are the worst, and which are the most and least frequently occurring at the institution. We also compare the perceptions of our samples to the American and Chinese student samples previously published by Liu et al. (2020). Results are discussed in relation to the scholarship of teaching and learning and the possible effects of the pandemic on the perceptions of teaching. Future directions are also proposed in this context.
