Part 2: Meet The Cast & Characters Of The Teacher’s Pet Movie

Emma Sinclair

Bright, lovable, and brilliant are three characteristics that define The Teacher’s Pet Emma. Emma Sinclair’s innocent beauty lures many male characters into the movie. As her former boyfriend, the irresistible-looking Zach is the first guy to catch her attention.

Dressing up to impress initially becomes the forefront of Emma’s mind. Zach has conditioned her to do it. After all, Zach flees after he knows Emma’s present has almost been completed.

Regardless of which, Emma’s sociability makes tiny breakups like hers with Zach’s useless to break her mentality. Emma also continues to delight in her days with people, parties, and fun games.

Ian Hayes

Ian’s model-like appearances in The Teacher’s Pet can fool other characters into thinking that he can’t be a college professor, especially in a medium-to-large-sized university like Emery University.

Yet, that’s how Ian lives his life. He is a new Literature college professor in Emma and Tiffany’s class. Tiffany is the first person to recognize Ian; that’s why, she gossips the professor’s hotness to her best friend.

Ian can never distract himself from Emma every time he locks gazes with Emma. It indicates his feelings for The Teacher’s Pet that go beyond the professional level.

Ryan Scott

Emery University students’ minds are full of Ryan Scott’s imagery whenever they think about the swimming competition. Ryan is not only a handsome and charming-looking young guy; he is also an exceptionally talented and agile swimmer.

So, the swimming pool becomes the first place to witness Emma’s meetups with Ryan. Then, Ryan invites Emma to a party with many fun games he has designed. At first, he is not aware of Ian’s presence; after all, he doesn’t include Ian in the party.

All hell breaks loose when he figures out who Ian is and what relationships he has with Emma. He could also be the deuteragonist in The Teacher’s Pet movie given his unrequited feelings for Emma.

Tiffany Mitchell

“The supportive best friend” is the role Tiffany Mitchell has consistently played through the episodes of The Teacher’s Pet. Tiffany has known Emma for a long time. Hence, it becomes a reason she can get along and keep up with Emma’s discussion and joking styles.

Talking about the hottest guys is Tiffany’s favorite thing to do when she and Emma have no classes to attend. Despite her “bestie” status, Tiffany can develop unusual attachments to one of the guys.

Coupled with Tiffany’s rather dominating appearance portions in the movie, these possibilities and characteristics make her one of the most complex characters.

Part 3: The Teacher’s Pet Full Movie Review And Alternative

Review

Emery University doesn’t only become the parody version of the real-world university. It also serves as the main place setting in The Teacher’s Pet series. It is where Emma Sinclair, the female main character, undertakes courses with Tiffany and her other friends.

Since it is a university, all Literature students call Ian Hayes “Professor”. Ian’s disheveled (yet still stylish) looks, glasses, books, and serious demeanor in class accentuate his role as the reserved (yet passionate) college professor. However, the party scenes and the romantic dynamics in the middle of the parties garble the university feels.

Some audiences might feel “The Teacher’s Pet” resembles the high school environment more than the university. The conflicts and climaxes without involving any bullies in the first few episodes are some other plus points in The Teacher’s Pet movie. Nonetheless, this movie has many inconsistencies to address.

The professor should remain as he is instead of a school teacher. Or, he could also be the school’s teacher and the university setting should be switched to the (more appropriate) high school setting.

The movie’s title might suggest the romance dynamics only involve the main character and the hottie Professor. Yet, the presence of other characters, such as Ryan and even Tiffany, can distract some audiences. Plus, the complicated love triangles after Emma’s breakup with Zach can make the title too obvious for audiences to determine which guy Emma chooses.

A ReelShort Movie Alternative

The Teacher’s Pet emphasizes the Literature subject as the college subject Ian teaches doesn’t have any university feels in it. High schoolers in the US also have AP subjects. AP Literature is one of the subjects that students can sit in.

Speaking about AP subjects, another school romance-based movie also has it. We can watch “Ms. Swan, Teach Me Love” on ReelShort’s official website and APP.

This ReelShort movie is like a gender-bending equivalent to The Teacher’s Pet. Yet, the stories’ plots feel more relatable! It tells stories of Charlotte Swan, an AP Literature teacher, and her tumultuous romantic life with Timothy Wolfe, Principal Amber Wolfe’s son.

No teachers have ever stood strong teaching in Timothy and his gang members’ class! Even Charlotte can’t escape from this bad boy’s charm. She might appear strict with applying two detentions to Timothy, yet, Timothy is more than determined to win her heart!

Meanwhile, Charlotte struggles to feed her only family with her previous job as a waitress. Now that she is using her Master’s degree to apply for a job as a teacher, she should secure her job, even if it means complying with her “wayward” student.
