i'm in 11th grade and at my school there is this teacher who doesn't even teach me but he acts really wierd with me. Hes like the strictest teacher in the school to everyone but me. Once he took a photo of me and started going on about how much he LIKED it, i mean it was just a pic of me playing with my hair. Another time i was in his room for some reason and he just came out with 'fancy a job rosa' and winked at me, then a few days later he was shouting at some kids and came up to me after and said 'i'm not mean, well i'm not mean to you because i know you like and i'm nice to you, you've seen my nice side ' and winked at me yet again. Whenever i walk past he has to have some degree of eye contact with me and whenever i talk to him he always touches me on the arm or shoulder. Its only me hes like this with, why am i been singled out like this? and now hes asking for me to do lunchbreak catch up sessions with him and asked noone else who hes doesn't teach only me. is he infatuated?

yeah I'd check up online and see if he is a registered sex offender. If you're a girl and he's a guy I'd have little alarm bells going off in my head and big signs flashing WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! SEX ADDICTED PREDATOR ON THE LOOSE! WARNING! WARNING!
I'd be *very* careful hun. VERY.

It might be in your best interest to have a talk with your Mom, or someone else that you trust about the situation.
Lunch break catch up? Why should you need to use your lunch break, in a teachers classroom, that isn't your teacher?
Could be perfectly innocent, but just to be on the safe side, don't go anywhere alone with him.
If he doesn't take no for an answer, make sure your Mom knows. Let her get involved and talk to the principal or councilor.
You are obviously an intelligent young lady.

Rosa, for the love of all that is holy, please report this to the authorities rather than strangers on the Internet. You've been posting questions about this teacher for 2 weeks now. If this is really going on, then you need to tell someone who can actually do something about it. Your teacher is completely out of line and needs to, at the very least, be reprimanded severely. Why wait until you see him on Dateline's To Catch a Predator when you can stop him from molesting a child now?

It could be a lot of things. Maybe you remind him of his daughter or sister. Maybe he's into you. Maybe he realizes you're one of the good kids. If he's been teaching for a while he could be jaded by kids your age because of the behavior and attitude that seems to be a major part of the younger generation these days. It really could be anything. If the touching is not inappropriate (any touching that makes you feel uncomfortable should be considered inappropriate) and he hasn't made any lewd remarks then I think you should ignore it. If he crosses any lines then you tell someone immediately. If you're wrong about what you perceive to be his intentions you could ruin his career by telling someone that he's sexually harrassing you. Even if you make it clear that he hasn't "done" anything yet. Remember; guilt or innocence is completely about public opinion, not justice. Keep your eyes open and good luck.

Hell!
I was in a similar situation once, But I never came anywhere near him after the one year he taught me.
Mind you, I stayed as far away from him as possible, and being a guy, it was slightly embarrassing, cos the teacher was male too. I empathize with you, it was weird for me, especially when friends started teasing me abt it ( But actually, if this had happened when I and they were old enough to understand it, i would have been teased mercilessly. Children can be unfeeling lil vasturds some times, but thankfully , nothing happened and I never heard abt it again).
BUT can you call it harrassment till he actually touches you in a bad way? With me, I didn'tknow the difference between god and bad touching.

on your first sentence, you stated that, "there is this instructor who would not even coach me." I would desire to ask, "If he replace into no longer your instructor then why have been you in his room?". possibly he meant that the image got here out incredibly super and which you will desire to evaluate modeling. Is he a photographer for something? a grin and a wink isn't a come-on. that's basically being friendly. besides the undeniable fact that, instructors are there to coach and handbook you. they have no corporation touching you in any way that makes you sense uncomfortable. in the event that they do, circulate with your thoughts. get away and tell somebody.

It certainly seems he's into you. From what you said it doesn't look like he's done anything blantantly innappropriate yet, but even so if his excessive attention makes you feel uncomfortable you should consider going to the principal and reporting it. Don't accuse him of sexual harrassment tho unless it really comes to that because that could really destroy the guy's reputation and possibly even cost him his job. But if it DOES turn into sexual harrassment then you shouldn't hesitate to report it. If you don't feel his attention is bad enough to report it then maybe confronting him and telling him his excessive attention isn't comfortable to you and you'd prefer that he treated you no differently than any other student.

You should be concerned. If he is making you feel uncomfortable ask if you can switch classes. If that doesn't work contact your counselor. An administrator should come to that class. If he acts normal around the administrator ask your counselor if you have permission to bring your phone in class. If your phone takes video you could take a video of him doing this. If he is nice to only you he won't take the phone away. Capture evidence and show it do some one important.

It seems that the teacher has a crush on you, because when he took that pic of you and when he talks about you that means he has a cush on you. Don't worry about this because that, but this is wrong when a teacher has a crush on a student and it is also wrong when it's the student has a crush on the teacher. This is against the law, so just don't worry about it. Just keep walking by and act like you don't even know he is doing it. But if he touchs you one more time then report him for child abuse.

If it really bothers you, confront him. Tell him how you are interpreting his behavior, and tell him that it makes you uncomfortable. It may be something, but then again, it may just be the way you are interpreting it. You don't want to get the guy in trouble if it is nothing, but if it gives you the creeps, you want it to stop. You may want to get someone else to be in the room when you talk with him, maybe not right beside you but close enough that if something happens you wont be in a bad situation.

You need to be very cautious around him. If there is someone at school that you trust--like principal or another teacher or school councelor, I would talk to them about this. Try to never be alone with him.
Good luck.
