I was in 3rd grade in english language class (Bulgaria) and I corrected my teacher about a sentence she said in a completely wrong way. She then proceeded to passively aggressively scold me and say what she said was correct and that i was wrong, and then made fun of me in a subtle way making me look like a retard. The whole class laughed at me. Time stood still for a bit during the laughter. It was like in slow motion waiting for it and the embarrassment to end. I was made to look and subsequently feel and behave socially awkward throught 3rd up until 11th grade and was never the same after that incident.. My entire school years social life ruined by a braindead, doused in personal issues woman.. This memory will haunt me all life. Thankfully I've understood it well enough to not give a fuck about it. But from that incident up until 11th grade i was socially awkward, couldn't speak out my mind.. Unlike before the incident where I was social, smart kid.. All that turned on its head in an instant and ofc I was a kid and couldn't understand whatvwas happening..... This shit ruined my confidence. Now she's burning in hell and drowning in problems 13 years later (i was 10 then, now 23). What my life could've been if this shit didnt happen..

I have a lecturer who probably has bad performance anxiety or something.
He's actually a good teacher all-in-all, but his dialect goes something like this

Was a TA for a professor. Guy had early signs of dementia despite being in his 50s. The previous year he received extremely bad student reviews and he developed a paranoia about this. Basically anytime a student complained about anything he would hand it off to me. I'd make a judgement call and then he would soften the blow to make the student feel better.

The worst was for their final project. I caught 4 students cheating. They must have gotten their projects from students who took the class the previous year, but the assignment had changed enough that it was obvious. I got the previous years projects and ran a diff program and showed conclusive matches.

The professor tried to make it a good cop bad cop with me as the bad cop. Long story short he ended up giving them all the worst grade possible that still let them pass the class. Complete pussy.

You have no idea how imaginative this guy was at stablishing physic problems with sexual subtext. Kind of hard to put into words in english since it involved a lot of slang in my mother tongue but this was happening all the time. Sometimes he used to walk past by us and touch our hands while we were writing answers at our desks. He also like to make us feel embarrased, which was easy because I come from an absurdly homophobic place (which makes this all the more ironic) but we didn´t say anything because this fucking guy was not only our physics but also geometry teacher and the volleyball coach. There is one instance that really makes me mad know, and I just catch wind of this until after I graduated but he once, very "concerned" about something, asked one of my partners to come to his classroom while we were at another one right beside his. Turns out he had "found" a guy in a gay porn that looked too much like a friend of this guy, and he wasn´t sure, so he wanted to ask him if that was our partner. This fucker was a huge pervert and I hate that I didn´t do shit about this back then.
