Yes, you are not alone but it’s not healthy and it can influence your life a lot.
It’s like a chain, right? Everyone has the instinct to want to be accepted by the tribe. Our “surviving” depends on our acceptance. We have this in our DNA.
You showed a big compassion for understanding your dad’s behaviour.
But, you were the right one this case.
Telling someone who is learning, to do this or that faster or better is pretty egotistic and rude. Each person has his or her own pace to do stuff.
I’m not telling you that your dad had bad intentions, sure he hadn’t but the stress on the mistake, that on another side, it’s something needed and welcome when someone is learning could send the error message “ You are unable, you are not good enough, you don’t do things well”.
Yes, another perfectionist here who takes things personally.

I don’t know what to tell you for you to feel better. You and I, have to break these chains.
