I honestly didn't like history until my mid or late twenties, except for 9th year. I think it was mainly because every other teacher some about it in monotones, if at all and basically just assigned in-class silent reading and a boatload of homework that didn't even cover important things. 9th year instructor some with inflection, asked questions that prompted deep thought and critical thinking.
That's fair, history teachers can certainly get lazy. If you present the information in an engaging way it's definitely not boring.
