[quote=Anonymous]Do you have parent teacher conferences? If the teacher mentions your student is quiet in class, be prepared to tactfully respond that your child is nervous to ask questions or provide incorrect answers based on the feedback to some of his classmates. You can add you hope he gets more comfortable participating as time goes on. A good teacher will be open to speak a little about it in a conference. Either way, I would not be too confrontational as yes you don't want it to backfire. You could also ask the school counselor how your child should deal with this teacher since the situation is causing anxiety. Then you are looking for a solution driven by your child, but also making sure school is aware. I assume they've heard it before. And I totally get what you are saying. I have one child that would hate that style of teacher communication and one that would like it. It does suck, but in upper school is good college/job prep to work with people like that.[/quote]
