teacher jokes

Educator's comedic material

Teacher jokes are humor about or characteristic of schoolteachers, typically featuring corny puns, groan-worthy wordplay, and wholesome setups.

The term captures a specific comedic register—earnest, clean, and slightly embarrassing: My math teacher's constant teacher jokes make the class roll their eyes.

The jokes are often genuinely enjoyed despite (or because of) their predictable lameness.
