Don't worry about it too much. I'd be willing to bet that you and that other woman weren't the only ones struggling.
A lot of times, teachers will try to scare you off or intimidate you in the first few classes. I guess they're trying to get everyone who's not serious about the class to withdraw, but it always seemed a little mean and pointless to me. They usually stop it with the intimidation tactics after the first test, in my experience. Just study hard and try to focus for now. It'll get easier.
