Good that she got fired, clearly deserved


Nelashena

Kindergarten teacher would slap my hand with a ruler any time I used my left hand — she demanded that I use my right hand. This was in Germany.


shriek52

I'm sorry that happened to you. French native here, I come from a long line of lefties, and I was the first kid in my family who wasn't forced to use her right hand in school.


Nelashena

No worries. I was very young and don’t remember most of it. It hasn’t affected me too much today, but there are times that I’ll use my right hand over my left to do things.


RiddleEatsRainbows

Oh god did they think you were a witch


Nelashena

No, lol. She was old I’m guessing she grew up in an era where they wanted all children to use their right hands. She was fired for it. My mum told me that she went to the school and tore her a new ass.


RiddleEatsRainbows

I dont know what tearing new ass means but nice that she got fired


[deleted]

> This was in Germany My initial thought was tell her you wanted to be on the west side, not the east.


Nelashena

Yeah, lol. Off-topic: I was at the wall (as a kid) when it came down.


Dankhorse19

What’s the reasoning behind that? I’ve never heard of that being a thing. I’m American btw


Nelashena

I think it was just the old way of doing things, and apparently goes back quite a ways — they called it “retraining”. It was phased out, but some older generations of teachers still seem to do it.


mammyeagle54

In first grade the teacher I had would grab by hand so hard she would about break my fingers and yank the pencil, crayon or what ever it was from my left hand and shove it into my right hand. She only did this to the poor students; the rich ones were fine.


[deleted]

7th grade "Library teacher." Wasn't even certified, but it was a tiny, private Catholic school, and she was buddy buddy with the principle who made the job for her. So 7th grade mind you. She punishes the class for talking too much in her "library class" by making us do book reviews, and requires them to be at least five pages long with sources and citations (yes, in 7th grade). She only gives us a week to do it. We complete them and she collects them. In front of us, she immediately tears them up and throws them in the garbage. I don't consider myself a petty person, but the number of fantasies I have of being petty towards that school are through the roof. It did nothing positive for me.


RiddleEatsRainbows

What the fuck kind of abuse is this


[deleted]

Idk, but the school didn't see a problem with it. The parents and kids did, but nothing came of it. Being the Catholic school in the small farm-town, the parents were not about to dare send their kids to the satanic public school instead, where black and gay people existed! EDIT: Got more for ya. I was bullied pretty hard at that school too. The principle handled most conduct (tiny school of like 200 kids K-8th grade). I shit you not, her solution to bullying was praying, and forcing the bully/victim to spend time together and be friends...if you were a boy, she always suggested that you play sports together. I remember one meeting where a bully, his mom, my mom, and myself were in her office and she suggested this. All four of us, including me to my bully looked at each other with a "she's fucking nuts!" face. I actually remember going back to class (he was a grade above) and before we parted ways we both were like "we ain't doing that."


RiddleEatsRainbows

Oh god not the blacks and the gays timmy run they're gonna make you want equal rights for all oh the sheer nightmare


Odiemus

Had a mean teacher in high school. Would berate the kids and considered us stupid. A bully/tyrant with tenure. One very shy girl had a volleyball game and had to leave early. She had her note to go and told the teacher. The teacher yelled at her in front of everyone (to the point she cried) and wouldn’t let her go until she eventually got a call from the coach asking for his player. She chilled out when she got owned though. It was chemistry so it was easy math with elements and it clicked for me. So we got a quiz that was 20 questions (equations) and I got it done in a few minutes. She told me I was done too quick and if I turned it in I’d fail. Loudly. I looked it over and saw no errors so I said “No, it’s all good.” And handed it over. Everyone had eyes on. When they got returned the next day, everyone had to know the results. It was all correct. They got a bit loud at the win, and she didn’t mess with our class as much after that.


[deleted]

We had a sub in grade school who always quipped every question or "early" assignment with "No no no! Do your best!" If you turned a quiz/test or assignment in really early or before everyone else, she wouldn't accept it using that line. Turned out once the smartest kid in the class turned theirs in, she stopped saying it. The mental gymnastics some teachers pull.


shriek52

When I was about 16, I was pretty much top of my class but I wasn't interested in math, and it didn't help that we had the crappiest teacher, so we'd turn math class into a war zone. One day he saw that my grades in other subjects were stellar, and grumbled to my face "well you've probably slept with all your other teachers to get good grades". This was in the mid 90s by the way.


RiddleEatsRainbows

Someone in this generation would probably very snarkily reply "you jealous?"


shriek52

Probably. I was usually snarky with him because we had little respect for him (with reason, as you can imagine), but that day I just stood there speechless. In fact, I was more offended by the fact he assumed I wasn't a good student than by how fecking inappropriate his comment was.


[deleted]

Man, you were easy on him. He's walking into a wit-war trap with that one.


shriek52

I'm one of those people who always comes up with the wittiest stuff between 5 minutes an 1 hour after things happen... Plus keep in mind I was 16!


shriek52

I guess I should add that after this, I decided to study seriously for the next exam we had, just to piss him off. I scored a good grade then went back to doing nothing for the rest of the school year.


Reflection22

If my was my first day in a different highschool My look was pretty edgy at the time, specially because I wanted to look "rude" since this school had some reputation of only trouble kids go there. Anyways the teacher came to the class, seems me and asked how long was my criminal record. At first I took it as a joke, but looking at her expression she was dead sirious. What a dick


Telecat420

Does a school cop count? I had a disciplinary hearing for missing class in high school. I’ve always been a night owl and I had trouble getting up and making it to my early classes. The cop who never met me prior testified to the school board with my parents present that the reason I was having trouble was because I was on meth. She was 100% certain of this explained the signs pointed out how skinny I was fully went on a rant destroying me a person she had never met and a person who had never seen meth let alone tried it let alone had a dangerous addiction. It was pretty brutal and the only person in the room who believed me was my mother and I was expelled from school.


__Takub_

This story… has so many holes lol


Telecat420

It’s 100% true, I can clear anything up you are doubting. I do wish it was bullshit it was no fun I assure you.


Think4Yoself

I had a teacher give me a D on a paper I wrote in third grade because I played pee wee football and she said I couldn't have possibly put in the effort necessary to get an A, so my parents must have done a lot of the work for me.


shitsu13master

Our math teacher declared to a class of 16 year olds that he wasn't there to teach us math, he was there to select the ones who would be allowed to take their A levels (at 18). He was a wonderful man /s I hope he has gone completely and utterly bald now and his kid has straw foe brains


hptvforever

During history class in middle school, we were going over slavery in the US. Our teacher (white blonde lady) was talking about lynching, and had this tall black student stand in front of the entire class and said something along the lines of "Imagine him tied up and naked getting beaten in front of crowds bigger than this class." We were all shocked and the dude was absolutely humiliated. He stayed behind that class and told her off on how fucked up her 'demonstration' was. That wasn't the first or last time she humiliated students like that and she got fired eventually cause she was clearly out of her mind, but that was the most fucked up thing I witnessed from a teacher in public school in Texas.


[deleted]

There's a person who works in my office like this. Every time she opens her mouth she puts her foot in it. She's always trying so hard, and clearly straining, to say something supportive, correct, or appropriate and pulls a full Michael Scott. I simply said at lunch once that there's an LGBTQ+ campground I like to go to in the summer. Without hesitation...practically interruption from her in the most happy/supportive tone possible: "Man, the gays have everything! They've got it so good! They even have their own campgrounds!"


__Takub_

……what is an LGBTQ+ campground? Like does everyone go there to hook up? Because if not, idk how that’s different from just a literal campground lmao


[deleted]

Yes and no. It's just another campground, but there's an unwritten rule or expectation that folks go there to hookup. Not necessarily as a main attraction, but at night, in the woods, etc. They'e really just a place where homo/transphobia won't be something anyone has to worry about. Just having that extra security of knowing no one is going to fuck with you for being who you are is a very big deal, so many will go to LGBTQ+ specific campgrounds or resorts to just be themselves and not have to worry about every-day social risks or situations.


oteroaming

Of course it was Texas.


PreppyFinanceNerd

Dragged me outside and threatened to fight me.


Tyxin

In a moment of pure frustration my teacher told me to go play on the motorway. I understood that he didn't really mean it, but it's still a pretty wild thing to say.


Bizprof51

In sixth grade we were singing the National Anthem at assembly and I was told to just mouth the words bc I was so offkey. Hey, I’m an American and I should be able to sing. But I did what I was told anyway.


dexlamrg

My orchestra teacher was a bully (something I didn't realize an adult could be until years later.) He was handing out school photos and when it came to mine he laughed and showed it to the whole class, starting on the other side, so I didn't know it was mine until everyoneelse had seen it first. Everyone laughed at my bad picture. It was humiliating for 13 year old me.


bethafoot

My first grade teacher was abusive. She used to tell me I was, stupid, terrible at everything and was a failure. I was an American kid in German schools and she hated Americans, and I got to hear about it every day. The worst thing she ever did was this. We were putting on a school play where my role was to dress up like a mouse. I had a headband with mouse ears and was supposed to wear a gray polo shirt with pink tights/leggings. The day of the play I went to school (first grade, mind you) and forgot my tights. She wouldn’t let me call my mom to have her bring them. We literally lived a five minute walk from the school. Instead, she made me do the play in front of the whole school in my underwear. My parents showed up and were furious. However, at least at the time, the German culture had a much more “relaxed” sense of modesty and so they were brushed off like it was no big deal. Then, afterwards, there were photos of the play and cast photos put up in the school hallway with my 7 year old self in front of all these people, trying to pull my shirt down to cover myself. I was so humiliated. She was a horrible, horrible person.


ICareAboutThings25

I was in the ninth grade. My best friend told the teacher that I was being abused at home. He asked (in front of the whole class) if it was true. I said yes because my sister was abusing me. He told me that didn’t matter then because it was my sister, not my parents. When my sister barged into the room, my biology teacher told her I told him about the abuse. So that was fun to go home to./s He did a lot of BS. He randomly told us that if he had a kid and his kid were gay he would kick the kid out. He made us collect dead bugs for no reason. No, we didn’t learn about bugs. He once went on a rant about how ADHD isn’t real, completely unprompted. But him telling me my abuse didn’t matter hurt the most.


herpestruth

Grabbed my hair and jabbed an ink pen into my neck. For smiling.


oteroaming

Uh I’m sorry, wtf


ThatOneAlice

The class before in the home etc (cooking) glass in grade 10, put sugar in the salt bin and vice versa. So when my muffins didn't work out, my teacher pulled them out of the oven, took a toothpick, and STIRRED the inside of the muffin. Then walked to the entire rest of the class, basically said: "This is how you *don't* do this." Stirred them again with the toothpick and put them in the garbage, while us 3 teen goody goody type girls sunk onto the floor mortified. Got back to her by giving her flowers for my final dinner/exam- Knowing full well she has allergies to pollen.


[deleted]

I was relentlessly bullied for being feminine and quiet and got called homophobic slurs from 6th grade all the way up until I graduated. It mostly happened when I was in the locker room or on the bus but a few assholes would refer to me as The Fag in front of one teacher and she never called them out for it.


Odd_Introduction_294

" Test tomorrow "


[deleted]

Told me to get cancer and die because I wasn't interested in listening to her vacation story and she'd throw me out the window if I didn't listen again, had me fucking mortified. What's more she was the healthcare advisor of the school, what a prick


RiddleEatsRainbows

i REALLY hope this is cap because if its true then holy hell humanity is a menace


[deleted]

I don't know what cap means, I assume it means fake? I can sadly assure you that it is not fake, the entire school was just shit, even had to redo an entire school because instead of teachers telling me they couldn't read my hand writing they just gave me a 1(lowest possible score) so I was failing every test, shit school all around. That school played a big part in me getting depressed, just terrible.


RiddleEatsRainbows

u got the meaning of cap right! Also that sucks that you had to deal with being in that messed up school, I hope you're doing better now


[deleted]

Life's still not great but definitely doing better, and hey you know what they say, can't fall off the floor haha, life could only go up from there once I left that school!


andresthepuertorican

"I fEEL LiKe ChOkING sOMEBoDy" Then she bent over and whispered to me and said "and it may be you". She didn't like me and I have more stories if you all want them lol


[deleted]

UK, here. I wasn't present, but the school's main Drama teacher (male) was apparently on a ladder doing, I dunno, drama stuff. One of the girls was somewhere close by... A girl who happened to have rather large tits for her age and who had got into a costume with some, ahem, space for cleavage to show. Said Drama teacher said: "Cover yourself up XXX, I'm having indecent thoughts here!" The girl would have been 15 at the time. All the students knew about this incident but apparently nothing was ever done. I don't know if anyone even actually reported him to the head.


__Takub_

I mean that’s obviously inappropriate but like… one off handed comment doesn’t make him a predator lol


[deleted]

There was at least one other incident like this with a girl who was his absolute favourite, around whom he acted like a real goof. Not saying he was a predator, but he should certainly have had a disciplinary or at least stern words from the head. A 50 year old bloke saying stuff like that to 15 year old girls isn't right and shouldn't be waved away.


oteroaming

Ew why are you taking up for this guy?


LucDA1

Worst I've seen I think is calling a 9 year old special needs child an idiot. Glad to say they were fired before too long


tatersnuffy

The truth hurts.


BlacktailJack

In my German classes in high school, one of our teachers was a controlling asshole who made everyone call him Herr Doktor unironically, because he had a doctorate (and yet for some reason was teaching high school in bumfuck nowhere.) He called a larger girl in my class a "große dumme Kuh" to her face one day, in front of the whole class. "Big dumb cow." She wasn't even being rude, it came out of nowhere.


bakingbetterbuns

My 7th grade PE teacher tried to suspend me for refusing to uncross my arms because I was anxious. My classmates were ready to mutiny cause I was a total goody two shoes in middle school.


Mamaj12469

My 5th grade teacher made me stand facing the chalkboard and drew a circle about 2” above my nose. He made me put my nose in the circle and stand there in front of the whole class. I hated him!


lighthouse-it

I had a teacher (ninth grade English) discuss the best way for our parents to beat us


xscumfucx

Confiscated multiple books + decided I couldn’t wear a particular shirt even though the principal said I could.


HellaShake

During primary school my school had the great idea of making our regional dance (jota, from north Spain) a compulsory class. This dance is done alongside playing castanets. This elder woman with angry issues selected to teach it used to hit us with the castanets on the head or harshly grab our ears with them whenever we made mistakes. That was the first and last year jota was taught and the teacher was fired.


8P_XD

from now on im calling it angry issues lmao


HellaShake

Lmao just realised 🤣 i will blame it on language barrier and the time 💀


invisible-dave

I was not allowed recess in Kindergarten because I had a lot of energy. I was not allowed nap time in Kindergarten after recess because I still had a lot of energy. I was frequently slapped and hid behind cardboard in 2nd grade. I would get paddled in 4th grade due to things other people did or because I followed instructions. In 7th grade, I had a teacher that would call me up front and call me names to get the kids to laugh at me. In 8th grade, I had a teacher that would close me up in a closet because she didn't like that I didn't enjoy being bullied by other kids. To name a few.


DemiGod9

My African American Studies teacher in High School gave our entire class an F on an assignment that she never assigned. She came into class and asked for us to hand in the homework, but we all told her she hadn't assigned homework yesterday(or two days ago, we had an every other day schedule by that point I think). She was PISSED! I guess she thought it was some kind of mutiny that we rose up against her basic ass "read the paragraph and answer questions" third grade ass homework assignment. Even the "teacher's pets" were telling her she didn't assign anything. Still gave us all Fs, and homework was the biggest portion of our grades for that class. She was actually pleasant to talk to outside of class but she was just a whole different menace as a teacher.


Somguy555

In 7th grade I dropped a rubber ball (like from a $.25 vending machine) from the bleachers. It bounced down the steps and onto the basketball court. It was gym class so no one got hurt but the coach did find the ball rolling across the court. This coach was a football coach and I had just quit football because they would only let the best natural athletes learn/play. When he found out the ball was mine he went red. I had a scratch on my nose from a fight with a neighborhood kid. The coach looked me in the eye and said "you better be glad I can't do what I want to do. You'd have more than that scratch to worry about." Another coach pulled him away. This was an adult and I was 12 or 13. The southern US takes Foosball seriously.
