Was this teacher right?

She knows I'm shy and she keeps telling me I need to talk more. She said, "When you don't talk to people, they don't know what you're thinking. You need to talk!" She even mocked me in front of the whole school and said, "Sometimes I just want to slap her because she just stares!" 

Was she being helpful at all by repeatedly telling me I need to talk? Or could she just have left me alone and let me be the way I want to be?

    Report her.  She needs to be fired.  She has no business teaching kids if this is how insensitive she is

    Respect introverts' introversion. Don't try to make them into extroverts. Of course, shy and introverted aren't the same thing but you should speak up when you're ready IMO. I'd feel uncomfortable too.
