I have been feeling anxious since I got here from Canada. I am the youngest teacher at my school, it is my first time teaching abroad. The lady that I am currently working with is bullying me and I am just sitting there and taking it. I am feeling scared and anxious every time I get to the school. I haven't signed a contract yet but in the beginning i was at one campus and I switched to a new school because I thought it would be better for me. It turns out it's not and I feel like I'm in over my head. The lady that is supervising me is making my job really hard, she is rude and tries to intimidate me by saying that they are hiring someone new for the position and she said that she is going to say some bad things to be and I just look at her blankly. I feel like I can't do my job because shd is putting me under a lot of stress and i'm just sitting there and taking it. I haven't been sleeping well and have been feeling depressed. She is a bully and I haven't been speaking out or clarifying because I've been so anxious. I don't know what to do. I've been here for 3 weeks and it has already been so hard for me. I don't know what to do.

If you are afraid to get fired, then don't, they don't usually do that especially to European or American employees. If she said bad things about you, they should interview first to ask about those things and then you can tell them what she did to you, so they might keep you with her or they might assign someone else for you to work with. Maybe because of you still young, so you still haven't enough experience with the work environment and such bullying people, they are everywhere, just have the courage and reply back to here, don't let her think you are weak, you are young and have nothing to lose (I believe).
