RE: A teacher is just a teacher, a teacher is not God!

I had such an experience in my second year in college. At the end of the year he failed me because I was not present on the day I was giving my final grades even though I had delivered all my evaluations (my dad was in surgery and the teacher knew it). I went to the university authorities and they did nothing, but wasn't about leaving things alone. Finally it was my uncle the one who helped me, they where friends. He told him to rectify the mistake or he would take it as an offense towards him. The guy was very scared of my big uncle and finally agreed to give me the grade that I had from the beginning. At the end he was just a petty fellow who had been allowed to abuse his power by everyone, until someone bigger and stronger stood up to him.
Omg that sounds like a horrible teacher. There are teachers that misuse their power. And what makes it worse is that the authorities don't do anything about it. 😒
That is true! The only thing we can do is speak up and not do what they do when it is our turn to teach.
@rebeysa85 Yes, I try to do that everyday. It's just very difficult to fight a whole system that is like this for years. But I am not giving up. 😅
