I heard that Michael Phelps said he had an English teacher who said he wouldn't achieve anything in life. ?

Question

But could you please quote him. (I mean, what were his exact words).

Answer 1

Considering that Phelps consistantly misuses the phrase "I'm at a loss of words", I'm not surprised that an English teacher would say that.

Answer 2

"Micheal Phelps you will not achieve anything in life. Amen"

Answer 3

If you go to nbcolympics.com, they have the video of his interview with Bob Costas where him and his mother both discuss the bullies and the teachers.

It's either at the halfway point, or more towards the end...but his mom was with him so you can skip the part with his coach and the swimming commentator.

It's actually a pretty interesting interview, so you might just want to watch the whole thing.

Answer 4

could you please look it up yourself?  I'm not doing your work for you.

Answer 5

I think the English teacher actually said "you aint never gonna amount to nothin"

Answer 6

Yes, he did. So what ? It was actualy good for him ! Kind of a motivation ! He should thank her.

Answer 7

It was something along the lines of " You'll never be sucessful at anything"
