I was smaller than most of the other students; had red hair and was left handed. During cursive training she would make extra certain she would scrutinize my writing more than the other kids. I guess she was so over come with distaste at my left handed writing style ; she took a wooden ruler and hit me across this hand with it one day. She made me sit in the very front of the room and I hated this and she knew it. I wanted to sit in the way back ; away from the bullies ; but she made certain I was sitting in the front of class every morning. At the end of my third grade term ; she told my parents I would never amount to much because I was too shy....and so forth... I never told my parents about the ruler incident... |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 8713004 12/05/2012 12:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'll start. Quoting: wisc_natureboy I've had a few influential teachers. In grade 10, I took a "Comparative Religions" class at a USA public high school. It was the first time it was offered at that school. One class period, the teacher, Mr. Joczwic turned off the lights, lit candles and incense, and played Ravi Shankar music for the whole class time. In retrospect, I wonder if he was cooked that day. ;-`) Are u from nj? |

| January Wolves User ID: 29084886 12/05/2012 12:27 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I had a young h.s. teacher who made my life miserable. He was really popular with the students and all the girls had a crush on him. He was nice to everybody except me! I was a good student - good grades, didn't ever get into trouble until his class. He would even lie & send me to office for things I didn't do. It really crushed me until finally my parents demanded answers. We met with the principal and the teacher and the teacher admitted that I looked just like the girl who had jilted him a few years back who he had never gotten over. They transferred me to another history class and he didn't get in trouble for it. Everyone felt sorry for him except me! Jerk! |

I Never had a teacher like that again, and always hated schools. But that's nothing special nowadays. Reverend Lovejoy: Y'ever sat down and read this thing?
