Hi AntiGuv-

We even learned how to conduct a self-Heimlich using a plain deskchair in the event you found yourself choking without assistance nearby. I'd imagine it would be difficult to maintain composure when you feel your air being restricted. The experts even advise curling your fist into your gut and pumping rapidly with all your strength. At that point, you have nothing to lose.

the teacher needs to be charged criminally for this at the very least for reckless disregard for human life and possible involuntary manslaughter

That happened to me one time. "Maintaining composure" was really hard when I was choking to death. I knew I was dying. I prayed. It came into my head to use my desk chair. The food I was choking on FLEW out.

My words here do not even come close to describing the incident. But I guarantee I have been more careful since then.

Choking to death is a horrible and painful way to die. I hope that teacher suffers severe punishment.
