Okay, orchestra (and other genres of music) teacher here. Hold onto your rosin.
What I do with my ensembles is to tape (either audio or visual, but I prefer audio so my students don't get all caught up on so-and-so's hair, but the visual tape helps me as a teacher to improve my conducting skills) all our concerts and performances. After it is all said and done, I ask each class that participated what did they think of the performance, and what they think could improve. After that, I show the tape for them to re-live the experience. I encourage discussion during the video, and I personally take notes of what the students say to improve my teaching techniques. After it ends, we continue discussion as to how we can improve for next performance.
At the end of the year, I take the recording of the Winter Concert and play it after the Spring Concert and let the students compare how well they did from the middle of the year to the end. It's good to let you guys note how well you have improved during the year, and also to give me pointers on how to improve my teaching for the next season.
Bad performance? Meh. Those happen. Big deal. Just know there is still time to improve, and it'll give everyone something to work on for next time.

Yeah, maybe you could've done something better, maybe if someone around you didn't mess up, you wouldn't have heard it and done the same, but oh well. That's life I guess. And about what your teacher said: anything can always be better. Nothing in life is 100% perfect. domokun
