[coolkitty1934]

round like a month or so ago i did an opening shift for the pool on saturday and was late making a class have to wait to start and the teacher ended up yelling and like scolding me for being late and i broke down crying.yesterday i was doing my lifegaurd shift and that same person came in and i know there is no reason to but it made me tense and nervous with her being there thinking she would yell or point out something else i did wrong i feel weak i mean it was one little moment that honestly wasnt really bad but it still made me this nervous not to mention when she came in i saw she was in a cast and it made me a bit happy why would that make me happy?i feel just weak and a horrible person

You can't let others actions or opinions define who you are or who you should be. Everyone is fighting their own battles and maybe she was having a difficult time, which made her lash out on you. You could always try being direct, tell them you don't appreciate the way they are treating you. If they have any semblance of morality, it could open up a conversation that would benefit you both. If it goes sideways, you may not be the problem here

i dont think so..i was not rude in any way and she got on to me before the class which didnt make me break down but when i tried to walk around the outside of the pool to avoid confronting her after her class was over but she chased after me telling me to stop then got onto me again despite me obviously being nervous and saying i was sorry she still didnt stop thats when i broke down.it was not just once if it was just her having a difficult time she would not chase after me to yell a second time.my thooughts is she was thinking i was a typical rude teen whos behaviour needed her to "fix"

I'm sorry... I think it's time to go up the chain of command and mention how her inappropriate behavior is affecting you to someone other than her.

"the teacher ended up yelling and like scolding me for being late"

I guess every teacher is different. (not that I agree with it)

.

Here.. Back when I was in college, it was (usually) a pretty simple rule by most teachers.

They took attendance, and it factored into your final grade.

Some were cool that if you were late, that you could see them after class, give your name and you got credit for showing up.
