30 Unnecessarily Ableist Things Students Saw Teachers Do, As Shared By Twitter

As someone who had an asthma attack and could barely run the small distance to my room before almost passing out, i gotta say this is stupid

WHY!? SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPORTED!!!

Teachers should be encouraging this. If i have a student that is a fast learner and well ahead of the others i will ask him/her to help those that are behind. This helps me out and it gives the student a sense of pride that he/she is doing something good.

I would report that if it was me ( then I would probably chicken out tho)

You should of had a word with her after class and tell her how degrading it was her acting like that.

What a rude teacher

*smacks lips* Well SHUCKS

That's disgusting.

I hope you have understanding teachers now

This teacher should be fired

My teacher yells at me for doing this too. She actually told me it was "Her time" and everyone should only be focusing on her even though she was just barely talking about random stuff to a different student.

The same thing happened to me last year. (History)

This happens more often than you think, sadly.

Disgusting

Oh my goodness! Yay! Not the only one!

That's horrible

That’s horrid. But if they trigger your gag reflex, take revenge and throw up on her.

When educators refuse to learn how to help, where can you go?

Doodling helps me focus too

That teacher needs some serious help

There is no right way to do art. And this teacher did nothing but stunt creativity and shame kids.

She need to be fired.

“Get the Cotton out of your ears” is a really old saying, I’d actually bet the teacher didn’t know or remember this kid had hearing aids.

I feel this post so much. I was diagnosed then it was ignored, my mother years later still denied me ever being diagnosed.

Wow! I didn't know that you could be paddled for that!

People think that we can control our ADHD but we really can't help it!

That's just dumb! You are a amazing artist if you are careful and you draw neatly! Teachers should be proud if their students are so neat and draw like that!

same with my teacher

Well she helped 🙃

Just because someone seems lazy doesn’t mean that there isn’t something else going on. It’s hard not to think somethings like this but that’s still no reason to publicly shame someone

how did this teacher even get the job

That is a gross and accurate description of the public school system.(In America)

Why can’t some people understand that not everyone is perfect

That’s horrible

bitching bitch

This need to be banned, teacher can't tell us when are bladders need to go.

Being ableist. Public education at its finest ladies and gentlemen.

why tf do teachers have such a problem with mental math it is an important skill to develop

Can we talk about how awesome this person's twitter handle is?

In kindergarten everyone who sat next to me tried to copy my answers. Always (unless it was my friends)

I was always yelled at for this too, i would accidentally read ahead and when they called on me to read and i asked"What paragraph" i got yelled at.

I was put out of the class to learn my lesson. "You will sit out here where you can't learn, so you learn"

I’m left handed and would be horrified if someone did this to me. It’s dumb how people will shame others based off of what hand they write with

I hold it like the left picture too :)

There is no wrong way of holding a pen as long as it works for you. Especially if you're an illustrator.

same i got yelled at when first learning to write because I held the pencil wrong I still hold the pencil the wrong way my writing just messy when I hold it the proper way

I was taught to write holding it like the left picture but have always been more comfortable holding it like the right picture. I was forced to use a rubber attachment on my pencils to force me to hold it "correctly"... I also have to turn my paper nearly 90° to write in a straight line, comfortably.

I was taught that the hold on the left is the proper one (better precision), and the hold on the right is a lazy one that leads to bad penmanship and weird finger calluses. I use the hold on the right.

oof I have muscle problems and can't hold my pencil right...I have been literrally screamed at

This! I'm a professional painter and illustrator and that never made any sense to me! I also hold paintbrushes the way that makes sense to my hand, not the way that made sense for teachers.

Were you accidentally smudging the ink with your fingers on the paper? Only reason I can think to correct it.

I hold it like in the left picture too, and my drawings are still pretty good if i do say so myself. My brother thinks ghey're really good too.

Very similar to my experience where I was suposed to hold my pen higher.

Doesnt everyone write like the left?

um... who holds a pencil like on the right... i don't.

Whatever is most stable for the user!!!
