For a teacher you don't like
Wipe the tears away quickly. If a classmate asks you if you are crying, just say you yawned or that you have bad allergies.
If the teacher comes over to you and asks why you are crying, don't give them much information. Just say nothing. That will make them walk away.
Say that you don't want to talk about it. They may send you to the guidance office because they don't want to deal with it. If this happens, you can go to the guidance counselor if you need to talk to someone. Or you can hide in the bathroom until the end of the period.
Act like nothing happened the next day. The teacher won't bring it up.
For a teacher you like
Expect assistance. If they like you, then they will most likely come over and ask what's wrong.
If you want to play it cool, then use the steps in the previous method.
Explain the situation. If you feel comfortable crying in front of them, then tell them what's wrong. They will likely try to make you feel better. Just go along with it.
For a male teacher
Act like you aren't crying if he asks. Say you yawned, sneezed, or have allergies. Or, you can pretend you don't know what he's talking about.
Ask to use the bathroom. Get your crying done there.
For a female teacher
When the teacher asks what's up, tell them what's wrong.
If you want sympathy, start crying more. People tend to try to comfort you if you cover your eyes with your hands and act shy about it. For sympathy, say something like, "This is so embarrassing," or, "Oh my gosh, I'm really sorry. I don't want to bother you with my crying." This will most likely get you a hug. If you don't like hugs, then don't lay it on thick.
Act very quiet for the rest of class when you've finished crying. You don't want to seem like you faked it all. That will irritate people.
Act a bit shy the next day if you want more sympathy. If you want to keep it normal, act like nothing happened. If you act that way, then the teacher will too.
