I would always raise my hand in 3rd grade, and my teacher would NEVER pick on me. She’d always choose the same handful of smart kids over and over again. One time there was a really challenging problem, and finally after picking all the smart kids FIRST, she called on me and was shocked I got it right. Kids pick up these signals. Why are people like this lmao

I actually tried participating in like grade 1, and the teacher would never pick me unless I didn’t know the answer and didn’t raise my hand, and I basically never tried to participate again for the next 12 years

I had a math teacher that would ridicule me and the rest of the kids in my class when she called on us and we got the answer wrong. Messed up my brain’s way of processing maths, and gave me terrible anxiety when attempting to participate in class.
