Should I Leave My Skill Training Because of Constant Humiliation?

I am in my twenties and have spent more than three years learning a skill. I have gained some experience, but I still do not feel confident enough to put the skill to proper use. My biggest concern is the way the person training me treats me. He often humiliates and oppresses me at the shop, and I do not understand what I did to make him dislike me so much. The environment has become unbearable. I am considering leaving to learn another skill or starting again with someone else. Would that be a wise decision, or should I endure and complete my training where I am?

What would make you feel ready to use the skill independently: more practice, a different mentor, or clearer feedback?

How do you know the training environment, rather than the skill itself, is the main reason you want to leave?

After more than three years, the lack of confidence may be tied to the training environment, not simply your ability.

Leaving immediately may not solve everything; confidence can still take time even under a kinder trainer.

Start documenting what you can do, practise small jobs independently, and quietly explore other trainers before making a final decision.
