I’m super scared of my teacher and idk what to do I’m getting like terrified of my Teacher and idk what to do now :( So we just wrote our final exams for my current grade and we don’t get our holidays just yet, so we have to attend school like normal. The problem is that I didn’t do well in one of my subjects and I know it and that subject is from the class I’m really scared to go to because of my teacher. I still attend classes but like both yesterday and today she kept calling me a failure like literally just me in front of the whole class and I’m already scared of her so this just makes it Soo much worse. Secondly I have a stutter and it gets way worse when I’m stressed and hence I really can’t even speak in class, my teacher knows that I stutter and she knows my situation yet she screams at me when I don’t participate in class discussions(sometimes I actually want to join). Well now after all her scoldings I really dont want to attend her classes but I can’t even do anything about it so I’m just sitting at home crying almost non-stop. I know I should tell my parents about this teacher but I really don’t want to cause anymore trouble than it already is. Does anyone have anything in regards to what I can do about this, like seriously I need to stop crying everyday but that teacher is just soo painfully rude :( and I’m powerless. I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like to talk about my emotions or my worries and stuff like that so like when I actually do talk about them it’s genuinely cause it is serious and my parents know that but I just don’t want to tell them, like our parent child relationship isn’t like the strongest like my parents are quite conservative while I’m not so like in the end I just don’t talk to them about anything that makes me seem vulnerable. I don’t want to tell them about this teacher either so now I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to skip her classes cause I’ve never skipped a class before but I also don’t want to attend her classes either. Every time I see her I want to cry and I have cried in her class multiple times to the point she called the coordinator cause I’ve been crying in class everyday, my coordinator didn’t know what to say or do so just asked me to go to the nurse office, which honestly helped cause Atleast I wasn’t in that teachers class for the day but like I still have to go to class everyday so it barely did anything. I mean I don’t cry in class everyday like I did before but I do Atleast like twice a week, which is still a lot i know and that teacher started scolding me for that also :(
