That happened to me in high school. I was in "advanced" freshman bio. Teacher gave me a B. When my parents inquired during a parent-teacher conference, she said I looked like I wasn't paying attention.

Fast forward ten years and the therapist I was seeing for seemingly unrelated reasons diagnoses me with ADHD...

I had a teacher the exact opposite. Completely ruthless about you doing the work, but patient and kind as long as it got done- And very pleasent.

That was my 8th & 9th grade Latin teacher. Failure was not an option. I can still decline nouns and demonstratives 50 years later.

I realized that 20 years after my last Latin class, I can sight read it pretty well, until I hit the word “ut” then everything falls apart.
