What's the worst thing a teacher has ever told you?
I'll go first: My professor told me I'd be a good housewife because I couldn't answer a question he asked me... uhm, I'm literally in engineering class
(Not the worst thing someone has said to me, but it definitely hit my self-esteem.)
You gotta have thick skin as a woman in engineering. It is one of the most chauvinistic, sexist, machoistic majors out there. It's getting better and I'm seeing more women in the field, but it's still got a long way to go. reply

Since I wasn't that...... reply
I took a long time off school once to take care of both my parents, whose health conditions got worse. When I came back, I had to go to the staff member in charge of attendance since my attendance was very low. She lectured me about how school is important and that I should focus on that since it's my life, not my parents that they will die anyway ...... 1 reply
think it had to be when my Chinese teacher told me I had the face of a native but the tongue of a foreigner like mind you I'm not even fully Chinese and don't even speak it at home so I don't know what he was expecting

Not to me specifically but once we were going to watch Forrest Gump in class and the teacher confidently explained to us that "he's a r******, which means he's kind of dumb." Which, beyond being uninformed, is a really bad analysis of the movie lol. Mind you that teacher was like in his 30s? Not old enough not to know better reply
