Language arts/English comp/etc. I hated that we had like...nonstop oral presentations. I've largely overcome my fear of public speaking now, but I nearly had a heart attack before all my presentations then. It seems unreasonable looking back on it though. My classmates were the same people I interacted with daily, but speaking in front of them was like hell.
I loved English at school but dreaded the times a presentation came up, thankfully it was not a lot. I was, well still, the same as you. I didn't have a problem with anyone in the class either. I remember when the oral presentation for the exam came up and I couldn't stop shaking and so on, horrible horrible. Got a B+ for the presentation, so was not all bad considering. How I felt when it was over was just bliss lol.
12-14.. ish?
We had to do most of the main subjects(English, all Science, Maths) until school finished at 16(GCSE exams) with the other choices we decided to continue with - Geography or History for example. I decided on Geography, wish I did History lol.

BASIC II the second semester of 10th grade was just horrible. I had fun in BASIC I so decided to take the second term of the class, and it was not only boring but so much more advanced than the first term that it ended up occupying a lot of my time. Yeah.
I hated Java programing too.

MathI was never great at it, but it all depended on what teacher I had.
I ranged from getting A's in classes to flat out failing.
Some teachers were cool, and were very helpful teaching you the best way to understand, and then there was always the 'I'm gonna make this class a living hell' teacher
馃憜 I was exactly the same.....in fact because of the crappy school i went to most of the teachers would let you pass if they liked you......but math still sucked because if i had questions or needed help and asked the teacher took me for not paying attention........once i got so fed up i was standing at my teachers desk and i shouted F**K YOU at my teacher then threw my pass book across the room and just left the room.
math i hated math in high school.. only did algebra then after that took some basic college math which sucked b/c i had to relearn everything i didnt want to learn in the 1st place and then some.. like geometry/ trigonometry, geology and chemistry... felt like a retard still do since i only learned it enough to pass test and exams and then throw it right out the window..
had the company i worked for higher student aids to teach me and my crew.. which was weird b/c we were all dumb as dirt but some how we seem to be collectively smarter then the students in class since we held the curve for our test.. must be real world applications and not just pencil and paper scribbling knowledge..

i died a little from reading that
History. All of my history teachers were fossils who merely regurgitated text book jargon. Also, I already knew more history than I was to be taught.
All through high school we had a woman in her late 20s for History. I think I was blessed with teachers for the majority of my school life, the French one I mentioned is the only one really that I dreaded.
It's college that was quite rubbish for teachers, we had two teachers for one course and one of them was terrible, and we were all sure HE wore thongs. Anyway, any of us could have taught the class better than him.
