Cut her loose. She's made up her mind about you, and in a VERY UNPROFESSIONAL moment she's dumped all this abuse on you. Know these things:
#1 you cannot change her mind, no matter what you do
#2 This is not your fault
#3 She is being EXTREMELY unprofessional, and should get her brain checked, or else have someone pummel a little sense into her
#4 THIS IS NOT YOUR FAULT
#5 You are not an underachieving student. She is holding it against you that you are social, and she probably was not. I was a social student, but when I became a teacher I did not hold it against my students if they were anything less than bookworms. Although I knew teachers who did. And BTW, they sucked as educators, cos they refused to try to get through to social students. It happens.
#6 Where was I?
#7 Oh, yes. It's not your fault she's deranged. Keep quiet and do your best without her. She's looking to win in this situation (she has all the power so believe me, she will) so give her a victory and stay cool. I'm speakuing from experience here, just stay cool and do your best under the circumstances. You've come in late a couple of times perhaps? Or left early? Or talked during class? Or skipped? Or let me guess, turned in an assignment late? It's a losing battle now. No matter what undeserved thing you've done to bring on her wrath, you have to deal with her now. Really, keep quiet and keep coming to class.
I'm sorry this happened to you. i've seen it and experienced it a number of times from all angles. Seriously, keep cool and keep on keeping on. It's the only way.
