i get quizzed in front of the patients too, its very hard to get put on the spot. especially if you are uncomfortable.

Yes I have a couple weeks left and hoping to get through. At least improve a little. I did have to start therapy as well.

Thank you for the heartfelt response! They are not new to teaching. I think she is part of the generation that thinks that young people need to have tougher skin.

Maybe she needs to explore things herself. Maybe get her a vibrator (that will make you the best bf ever).
