I suffer from a minor short term memory issue. I'm not looking for sympathy. I love art, learning about art, everything. When I was talking to the boy that I liked, for once, I'm quite shy... my teacher found out I signed up for AP Art history.

The only art his. class. She said this was way above 'my skill' level, and I wouldn't succeed in it. She said it's a lot of memorization and she's going to have my counselour change it immediantly. I felt like crying. I really want to take this class. Is it really all that difficult?

Everything in school involves a lot of memorization. If you've made it this far and taken some kind of art class before, I don't see why you shouldn't give it a shot.

I can't believe she said that. It's horrible when a teacher discourages a student like that. It is time consuming and a lot of memorization but if you put in the effort I'm sure you will do great.

And the reason you stood there and took all of that without telling her something is what again??

I wished I had a teacher like that when I was in school.

There was one time where a teacher was calling me and I refused to answer, then I told her something and she said "Its my right to call your name" and I responded without hesitation "And its my right nor to answer you".

You need to give these teachers a taste of their own medicine or they will continue to do it to you all the time. Show them that you have no plans of letting them do this crap to you and get away with it.

You and I both know she was out of line and at this point the only thing you can really do is tell your parents and the school's Administration.

Why didn't you stick up for your self?  
 I would have bluntly told her, I respect your opinion but fuck you.

I would have bluntly told her, "I disrespect your worthless opinion, so go fuck yourself, bitch," but your method is also quite effective


I prefer to be subtle. ^ ^

Thanks again guys. Yeah, I'm thinking about talking to her. But Friday's the last day anyways. I told my dad about it.. he said he wanted to call and yell at her. But I don't want to cause unnecessary drama. It just really hurt. Not to mention everyone in the class was watching.
swtpie Posted at 5:51 am on June 12, 2008
she can't do that. After class talk to her about it. Tell her what she did upset you.
lizzieisonfire Posted at 5:50 am on June 12, 2008
Thanks everyone. I didn't really stick up for myself because I was in shock. I mumbled harshly like, "Uh huh... yeah, right.. gotcha." and shot her a bitchy glare. But there's nothing I can really say. I just hope my counselor doesn't change it is all.

she shouldn't do that infront of the class...she should have taken you aside and said it...if you really think you can do it and you're passionate, tell her to give you a chance
