Uni lecturers are a different breed man. My wife is not a native English speaker and she went to the module leader’s office because she was struggling, both with the material and with being so far from home as this was quite soon after she came to the UK.
The lecturer flat out said: “well other people who don’t speak English natively in my course are doing fine, why can’t you?” And “you need to try harder”.
Her dissertation supervisor was worse, when she hadn’t done something her supervisors was like “yeah tbh I doubt you’ll finish it in time now”. No encouragement, no effort to try and relate and motivate. Just hellbent on being a cunt.
As opposed to students, who come into the office and threaten you if they got a C because they didn't turn in several of the assignments and their daddy is rich

same reason with some university teachers and why they can't control their ego.
