wow... All I can say is you are a true inspiration to me and I'm really glad that you shared your story it is amazing how your adversities helped you become an amazing nurse... I hope I have the guts to pull off what you did someday.

wow... very eloquently put thanks

I am having a similar problem with my clinical instructor... She is very difficult to talk to and it seems that she singled me out from the very beginning to "red flag" me as a student that has problems... I cannot believe that anyone would yell at you on the floor that is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard. I will say she has never done this to me. She gets angry and yells in class generally, but never on the floor. She just writes me up for things that in my opinion are petty- questions I ask, "behaviors" that she hasn't seen because she isn't in the room with me so I don't understand that, general accusations ie I don't take accountability for my actions...etc. The thing is I tied to talk to her but she just talks and cannot listen. She has no tangible way to "help me" when I ask her how I can improve and just says that it would be a waste of her time and asks me why I am in nursing school at all. I am getting As in my other classes. Its so frustrating. I withdrew from this class and am afraid of encountering her again- I would also like to comment on the original message. I have no problem with teachers being "hard" and having expectations. However, it is only fair that I have an expectation of the teacher/ instructor- that is to teach me the skills necessary to succeed at my profession nursing! It is unfair for an instructor to refuse to help me and just assume I will fail because I have made mistakes- I'm only human harry... I need advice what do I do if I have to encounter this teacher again? should I risk saying anything to anyone else? I considered writing an anonymous letter when I graduate is this a good idea?

I am in Nursing school right now and my clinical teacher was horrible... I withdrew from my class but I am still very angry with her attitude and was wondering what I can do about it. I thought about writing an anonymous letter when I graduate. I am afraid however, that I will get her as a clinical instructor again and am not sure how to handle the situation. What should I do any advice from anyone who has experienced this?
