Share some teacher horror stories.
I heard of a teacher horror story where the teacher was very unfair in grading. They would give good grades to their favorite students regardless of the actual work quality, and give very low grades to those they didn't like. For example, one student worked really hard on a project but got a much lower grade than another student who just did a mediocre job but was the teacher's pet. This created a lot of frustration and disappointment among the students.

One horror story is when a teacher was falsely accused of inappropriate behavior by a student who wanted to get out of trouble for not doing homework. The school launched an investigation, and during that time, the teacher was ostracized by colleagues and some parents. It was a nightmare for the teacher until the truth finally came out that the student had lied.

There was a situation where a teacher lost their temper very easily. For example, if a student asked a simple question, the teacher would shout and make the student feel stupid. This created a very tense and negative learning environment for all the students in the class. In addition, the teacher would also give extremely harsh punishments for minor infractions, like writing lines hundreds of times. It was really a nightmare for the students.

In some urban schools, there are issues of lack of resources. A teacher might have horror stories related to this. There was a teacher who had to teach a science class with almost no proper equipment. They had to make do with broken test tubes and expired chemicals. It was a horror for the teacher as they couldn't provide a proper learning experience to the students and were constantly worried about safety issues.

I knew of a teacher who was extremely unfair in grading. She favored certain students and would give them high marks even when their work was mediocre. Meanwhile, other students who worked hard got much lower grades for similar quality work. This unfairness created a very negative and competitive atmosphere in the class.

One horror story is when a substitute teacher walked into a classroom full of unruly students. They completely ignored her instructions and started throwing things around. She tried to calm them down but they just laughed at her. It was a nightmare as she had no support from the school staff during that time.

Share some teacher - parent horror stories.
There was a case where a teacher lost a student's important project work. The parent had spent a lot of time helping the child with it. When the parent asked the teacher about it, the teacher blamed the student for not handing it in properly. The parent knew this was untrue as they had seen the child submit it. This led to a lot of tension between the teacher and the parent, and the student was disappointed about losing the opportunity to be graded fairly.

There was a teacher who once found out that a student had been secretly recording her lessons without permission. The teacher felt violated as she didn't know what the student was planning to do with those recordings. It was a horror story for her as she worried about her privacy and how it could be misused. Imagine teaching and suddenly realizing you might be being filmed without your knowledge.

There was a teacher who used to publicly shame students who didn't do their homework. He would make them stand in front of the class and announce their names and the fact that they were lazy. It was really a horrible experience for those students and made them dread going to school. This kind of behavior can have a long - term negative impact on a student's self - esteem.
