Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
Look, this girl is obviously a bit over dramatic which, as you continue in your theatrical career, you will see over and over and over again. So many people I've worked with over the years have been this way. My best advice: ignore it. Be professional. Work with her when you have to and only when you have to and be as nice as possible when you do. Kill her with kindness. People tend to feel much worse about mistreating people who are nice to them as opposed to those who are rude and mean.
As far as your talent level, just keep working at it. Get as involved as you can as often as you can. You've gotta work from the bottom up. My first role was as an extra (a "Dinner Guest/Soldier for Macbeth) and I have since earned featured, supporting and even lead roles. Of course, I still receive an occassional "extra" role, but sometimes I find that those are the most fun. No stress, just fun.

Okay when she does it to you or one of your friends either ignore it or lean over and say well you arent as good as you think either.

Don't become good enough for her, Like me I wanted to live up to someone and everytime I would say to myself "I won't listen to her" Or "just Ignore her" I would still want to try.
But just Ignore her When she says something. And If she says something about you ignoring her just say "Yeah, I herd you"
Hope that helps

Say, "Great, you seem to know so much when it comes to critiquing me, so I'm excpecting you to have a flawless performance!" Make her aware that she's being a snob by that phrase and if it's starts conflict-then;that's life..Defend yourself

Call her out. Tell her to stop, and that you dont need her help

Okay, I would advise you to practice with friends or in front of a member just to perfect it. Also, you should confront her before you get really mad and blow up, I've been in a situation like that and it got out of control. So just confront her and say how you feel about it, if she still gets and attitude then you get one back. She might be jealous of you and the other actors,actresses so she tries to judge you badly, but don't worry about her. But if you have any other questions, dont forget to *Ask Ashley*

Tell her she's not the teacher, and she should just focus on how she's doing, and how she's performing. Other people should be none of her concern. If the teacher's concerned, the teacher will say something. But until then, she should just keep shut! Hope I helped. =]
