I was late to music class and being teased by my teacher...
When I stepped into the classroom, my teacher, Mr. K., was giving back the whole class the previous assignment. After I found a seat, I asked Mr. K. to return me my assignment. He asked, "what's your name?" I told him my name with my language accent. From what I observed, he felt funny and looked like he was tolerating his laughter. Soon, he told me to go over to the piano. So I walked and stopped in front of the piano and stared at him. Then he said, "bring your assignment with you." I went back to my seat and brought my assignment, thinking that he wanted to collect it. I got it and went back to the piano again. The teacher said, "sit down (in front of the piano)." I then sat down and placed my assignment on the piano rack. Since I was a bit late to class, I did not hear what he said when the lecture started: He required each of us to play a melody from our assignment. I think that I was like a robot because I listened and acted to his every word. Then I heard some noices, but not loud, coming from classmates. I paused and tried to figure out what happened to myself. Mr. K. asked me, "What's the first note?" I was confused about what he meant by the first note (why didn't I ask him right away??!! =.=). I didn't know what I was doing...I hit the middle C, thinking that it was the first note. Then, I looked at my assignment on the piano rack and looked at Mr. K. again. I chose one melody from my assignment, first hit the G note as the first note and played the melody on the piano. Then he chuckled and spoke to the class, "haha, look at her..." There were noices coming from the classmates again. After I played the melody, I went back to my seat feeling humiliated. My face blushed, and my tears almost came out. I stared at him angrily throughout the class session, and he noticed how I felt.
After class, most of the classmates left the classroom. Without counting myself, there were Mr. K. and 2 other classmates. A classmate asked Mr. K something and Mr. K. played some melodies on the piano to answer his question. I walked close to the piano, Mr. K. stared at me emotionlessly, which made me embarrassed. I don't think that his attitude is strictly towards Asian students because there were 2 Asian students in this class and he never teased them. From that moment on, I accumulated my hate on him. After the 2 classmates left, I put on a smile, and questioned Mr. K. about the mistakes I made on the assignment. After he explained, I smiled and glibly left the classroom. I felt I was so fake. After I went home, I cried.
I told my parents about this. While telling, I had a rush to report the guy immediately, but I felt anxious when I picked up the phone and finally didn't call the school... After this incident, he smiled to me when he saw me, I became soft-hearted--I smiled back to him, thinking that he wouldn't tease me anymore... During the semester, Mr. K. sometimes picked on me whenever there was quiet moment. Since I always talked with my accent and had no facial expression (because I tried to hide my anxiety), that caught everyone's eyes, made Mr. K. burst out his laughter--He didn't say "(haha), look at her~" by mouth, but tried to tell the classmates the message this way!! I so wish that I really was thinking too much...
I'm sorry if my story bothers you.
