I found it really difficult when teachers talked down to me.

I was terrified of being a teacher. To stand in front of a classroom, the responsibility is boggling. Imagine! Standing in front of people!

I remember teachers who really singled me out for their discouragement.

Teachers didn't like me very much. They thought I was just this punk kid and they always wanted to kick me out.

Most of my teachers didn't like me. I didn't get good grades because I pretty much lived at the public access studio. I tried to be the class clown, so I spent a lot of time in detention.

I was a naughty kid. Teachers did not like me much.

I've never had the patience of a teacher.

I was the bad kid in school. I was usually in trouble.

I had a number of teachers who hated me. I didn't do well in school.

Students never think it can be the teacher's fault and so I thought I was stupid. I was frustrated and would come home and cry because I couldn't do it. Then we got a new teacher who made math accessible. That made all the difference and I learned that it's how you present it that makes it scary or friendly.
