Victoria,
I'd love to SLUG your teacher! You may have "tendonitis", which is
a catch-all phrase for a variety of problems associated with tendons,
cartilage, etc., or you might have Carpal Tunnel syndrome. Did your doctor
rule it out? Assuming he did, have you talked to a sports medicine
specialist or a hand specialist? I strongly recommend it. Your average GP
knows diddly about how to deal with tendonitis and this is your career
here.
