DSS is scared of his teacher

Just looking on some advice on the best way to approach this.
My DSS is 8 and he has expressed a few times that he doesn't like his teacher since he started in his new class but ever since Christmas break he has been saying that he is scared of her because she shouts so much and he now doesn't want to go and crying before he goes in.

I've tried to get some more detail on why he doesn't like her or why he thinks she's scary but he just says he doesn't know.

I've spoken to his dad (my DH) and told him I think he should contact the school but we don't have any specifics in order to make a complaint or start any kind of discussion.

What do people think the next steps should be

He lives with us so anything to do with him is also important to me.

Leave it to his parents.
