One horror story is about a strict teacher who always publicly shamed students for minor mistakes. There was a student who was a bit shy. Once, he got a simple math problem wrong, and the teacher made him stand in front of the class and ridiculed him for being 'stupid'. This really damaged the student's self - esteem and made him dread going to school every day.
In some cases, a teacher might play favorites blatantly. For example, they always give the best opportunities, like leading group projects or getting extra help, to a select few students. This not only makes other students feel left out but also creates an unfair learning environment. Students who are not in the 'favorite' group may start to dislike the teacher and the subject.
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.
One horror story is a teacher who had a student constantly disrupt the class. The student would talk back, throw things, and make it impossible for others to learn. The teacher tried all the disciplinary measures but got no support from the school administration.
In an old, abandoned school, a teacher was rumored to have sacrificed a student to some unknown entity. Ever since then, if you walked through the corridors at dusk, you could feel an icy cold presence.

A great teacher - student story is when a music teacher recognized a student's potential in playing the piano. The teacher gave the student extra practice sessions and motivated him to enter competitions. The student won several awards and later became a professional pianist.

Once there was a teacher named Mr. Smith and a student named Tom. Mr. Smith was very strict. One day, Tom didn't do his homework.

One horror story is about a student who took out a large loan but couldn't find a well - paying job after graduation. The loan payments were so high that they had to move back in with their parents and still struggled to make ends meet. They were constantly stressed about the debt looming over them.
Another is over - controlling behavior. Some teachers try to micromanage every aspect of a student's school life, from how they sit to what they write in their notebooks. It can be really suffocating for students. For example, a teacher might force a left - handed student to write with their right hand, which is not only uncomfortable but also against the student's natural inclination. And also, lack of respect for students' individuality is often seen. Teachers may not understand or care about students' unique interests and talents, and instead force them to conform to a one - size - fits - all model of learning.
There was a situation where a teacher's personal photos were leaked on Tumblr without her permission. These photos were taken in her private life and were meant to be just for her friends and family.

She reported it, but it was difficult to get all the copies of the photos removed from the site.

The students were initially resentful but later realized that the teacher was trying to instill good values in them.
