Dear reader,
It makes me really sad to read your question, because I also had a teacher like that who embarrassed me for no reason, and I suffered because of her, so I know how unpleasant it is.
I don’t have a lot of advice, because my mom tried to talk to her and the teacher ignored it, so it didn’t help.
What helped me was knowing the year would end soon, and meanwhile studying as well as I could. Do your homework and don’t give her chances to embarrass you. For example, I was very careful to do my homework and keep a neat notebook. I was also very careful not to talk to the girl next to me in her lessons. I didn’t even raise my hand to answer, even when I knew the answers – I just listened like a good student.
That really helped me. The teacher picked on me less, I knew the material really well and passed the test.
I hope I helped you
Good luck

I’m shocked! You have to tell your mom. She should set up a meeting with the principal, the school counselor and your homeroom teacher. You can also make a complaint to the school authorities. Don’t just suffer. A teacher must not treat students badly – it’s really not okay.

Dear reader,
I think you should get advice about this from someone older than you.
Adults know a lot more than kids, and some of them may have been through something similar.
For example: think about telling your mom. Your mom can try to find out from the teacher what’s going on, and hopefully it will work out.
Good luck

Go to the teacher and talk to him face to face. I went to my teacher and sorted it out with him in a few minutes. He apologized, told me I’m a good kid, said it wasn’t on purpose and that next time he’d try to pay more attention. Since then he treats me really well and sends me on errands. He even said sorry to me again later, and of course I forgave him. I suggest you do the same – it might be a misunderstanding. We’re all human.

Dear reader,
What you’re going through is awful! I had a teacher like that – I came home crying every day she taught me. I’ll write you what my mom told me to comfort me: every teacher is only human. Maybe she doesn’t notice that she treats me less well, maybe she just connects more with other girls – not because she’s mean.
By the way, my mom spoke to the teacher once, and the teacher said she didn’t understand what I was talking about and that she only corrects me when I’m not behaving properly.
I can promise you I behaved well, much better than most girls in the class. Still, every time she heard talking while her back was turned, she told me to leave the room. Even my friends told her, “Teacher, it wasn’t her,” and a few times the girl who was talking said, “Teacher, it was me.” She still told me to leave. It was often at the start of the lesson, so I missed a lot of material. After my mom talked to the teacher, things got worse. I waited and waited for the year to end. That was the only solution.
My answer isn’t very helpful, because it doesn’t have advice about what to do, but I wrote it anyway so you’ll know that there are other kids with this problem too, and it doesn’t mean they aren’t good, smart students – it’s only about the teacher.
Sending you a hug 🤗

Sometimes teachers don’t notice! Talk to her. If you’re shy, ask your mom to come to school and talk to her together. She might be very surprised by how you feel. Don’t forget there are at least thirty other kids in the class, or even more, besides you.
Lots and lots of luck 🥰
