If you are a short/petite teacher, do you feel it made you self-conscious?


I am a teacher who is teaching at high school. Silly as it may sound, I have a bit of a complex about my height. I'm only 4'11"; I wear heels and am about 5'1" or 5'2" with heels. It's weird trying to be an authority figure (in a sense) to girls and boys who are so much taller. I just feel too small, in a lot of ways. I feel much more comfortable being a "teacher" to elementary kids or even middle school kids. But I really prefer high school (as far as the material and the age-group). Your thoughts?
