I had a French teacher who targeted me like this. She would call on me multiple times per lesson when I didn't know the answer and she would give me a detention if I didn't put my hand up at least twice per lesson and correctly answer.
She claimed that she was doing this because she liked me and that I had a French last name but the other dumb kid with a French last name didn't get the same treatment. I went from getting 50% in exams to 90% by the end of the year and I dropped French straight after that. Which sucked because I liked French but I couldn't risk getting stuck with her for another year. In total she must have caused me to spend at least 150 hours in detention
Oh noo a teacher was effective teaching me something, better drop the subject.
Dude. They saw potential in you, in your language intelligence and got you into a place where you were doing great with it.
If a teaching method causes a student to stop learning, it's a bad method
But the entire meme is that point. The teacher needs to ensure the dumb shy kid so they can come out of their shell, grow and become a functional adult. The kid killing school isn't going to need as much of a hand.
