In that I've had to tell my students several times, that I don't bite. I mean really, why would any student be afraid of a teacher!? I'm all for shaming them a little if they did something really wrong, but I have a lot of students who just, won't ask me for help. As in, they just won't do stuff if they don't understand. Who did they have in their past education that they are afraid to go to a teacher and get yelled at for not understanding!? Isn't that their job for them to not understand and for us to help them?
Even ok, I understand if they are embarrassed, but even so... isn't it more embarrassing to like be sitting not doing anything, or get a 0, then asking for help and getting a decent grade. When did failure become such an attractive option? Where's the try, where's the help me please? I don't bite! I'm actually quite nice without the fangs.
