Mr. P was one of Junior's teachers when Junior was still attending classes at an Indian high school in the book The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, but unfortunately he demonstrated what it is like to be the opposite of a great teacher. It's lazy and unprofessional. Mr. P wears pajamas to school, falls asleep during lessons, and sometimes forgets to come to class altogether. He is the type of teacher who is not motivated to be an effective teacher. He has no connection with the students, he was just there to teach. How can a person be your teacher if he doesn't behave like a role model towards you and what can you learn from such a person if he falls asleep in class and always forgets to come to class and teach. As a result, all the students who attended school on the Rez, did not receive enough knowledge, which causes the lack of education in all the reservations.
