Depressed student..have u ever?

Question

a) have u ever had a maths teacher (or any teacher for that matter) that was just so vile that u feel everytime she comes into your class everyone drops dead silent because there is somewhat some bad omen conjuring over the classroom/

b) have you ever sat an examination particularly mathematics that somehow after it has finished everyone else seem not to have a bloody problem but except for you. and anxiety engulfs you that you might die in the hands of the teacher?

3) have u ever felt so depressed you want to hurt yourself but always refrain to do so?

well, here it goes, i'm 16. i live in malaysia, a small country i dont think you even notice on the map. i go to a premier school that seems to have some superstitious standard that everyone must excel. the school's principle is 'you fail one subject you fail all'

this has really depressed me ever since i enrolled in that school 4 years ago. and unfortunately this year my maths teacher is mrs horror. she calls students stupid and idiots which i very much oppose. because i think the fact that we are in school makes us not stupid you know? so i just took this maths test and all my classmates thought it was a breeze. i didnt. now i fear that when we get the results mrs horror would embarass me with her profanities in front of the class.

how do i handle this sit?

Answer 1

This sounds very exaggerated.

Answer 2

i agree that teachers dont have to yell or tell the class about your level of stupidity. that's simple barbaric. if you feel insulted, defend yourself. i tell you you're gonna be proud of what you will do after contemplating about it in the future.

second, it looks like you're not that gifted in math. my suggestion, look for a study partner. math can be fun when you have someone to help you. if a study partner doesnt work, allot a portion of your evening/early morning studying. during these periods your brain is like a sponge. just practice those formulas, oki?

ps

dont let other people turn you down. even if they're your teacher. boost your ego. goodluck!

Answer 3

Get a tutor.

Answer 4

Wow. That is terrible. I know how you feel though. Math is my worst subject EVER. Maannn it sucks. But no teacher should ever have the right to make you feel that way. They should encourage you and make you feel like you have accomplished something no matter what. And if that teacher does decise to embarrass you in front of the class like that. Or even on a one on one level...stand up to her. Speak your mind. Let her know how she makes you feel and tell her how horrible she is. Just embarras her right back. You should never let anyone put you down ever because you are wonderful in your own ways. Maybe in only ways you can see or your closest friends can see. And it just so happens that math isn't your thing...so what not a big deal. Math is nothing...well to me its not. And if your worried about getting in trouble for speaking out against your teacher...don't be..letting the teacher make you feel like sh*t is a lot more damaging than any kind of punishment they could ever give you.

I really hate when people down talk others because its a lot more hurtful than they might think.

Answer 5

Wow that is really tough, well i never had a math teacher like that, but i had a science teacher! he was so mean! he lost my work all the time and picked on me because I was a teachers daughter. He barley passed me in the course in the end.

He was mean and was rude to my brothers too, called them g*y.

You really need to tell an adult. Not teacher has a right to call their students stupid. they obviously were called that in their past. I would tell an adult you can trust, because that teacher needs to be spoken to.

No one can just block mean words out like that. Please tell someone, its for the best.

I told the principle and he had a good talk with my science teacher. So far things have gotten better from what i have heard.
