391: How to Respond When a Teacher Humiliates You in Class

18 Oct

Have you ever had a teacher who called you out in class? Did you feel humiliated?

Gretchen and Megan talk out a recent situation Gretchen encountered with a college student, including how to assess what your next actions should be when a classroom environment feels toxic to you.

Together, they brainstorm:

  • How to get a reality check about whether other students also experience the environment as toxic
  • How to advocate for yourself, both with the teacher and with other school officials
  • What options there are for next actions in this type of situation
  • How teachers can be more aware of how their attitude of frustration comes across to students
  • And more!
