teacher horror stories

There was a story of a strict teacher in a boarding school. He was known for his harsh punishments. One day, a group of students played a prank on him. After that, strange things started to happen. Their books would disappear, and they would hear his angry voice in the empty hallways at night. It turned out that the teacher had a heart attack due to the prank and his spirit was angry at the students.

One teacher horror story could be a teacher who constantly yells at students for no good reason. For example, a student asks a simple question to clarify a point in the lesson, and the teacher snaps and starts shouting, making the student feel humiliated and afraid to participate in class again.

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.

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.

One horror story is when a parent blames the teacher for their child's bad grades without realizing the child never does homework. The parent yells at the teacher in front of the whole class, making the teacher feel humiliated and the students uncomfortable.

There was a case where a preschool teacher had a child with severe behavioral issues. The child would constantly throw tantrums, hitting and biting other kids. The teacher tried every method she knew to control the situation, but it was really a horror for her as she was constantly worried about the safety of the other children and the emotional well - being of this troubled child. It took a long time and a lot of cooperation with the parents to start seeing some improvement.

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.

Another horror story could be when a new teacher has to deal with over - involved parents. They constantly question the teacher's methods and decisions, and even try to interfere in the classroom management. For instance, a parent might demand that their child be given special treatment, like always sitting in the front row, regardless of the teacher's seating plan based on academic needs.
