advice
I'm trying to go on this student travel thing, it is for high schoolers, you go to a different country and do community service for a month over the summer. I need two teacher recomendations.
i'm going to ask my advisor, but i need someone else. I really want to ask my english teacher, she is awesome, she is my favorite teacher. but... I do very well in that class, i'm a good writer, but one of the questions that she would have to answer on the reccomendation sheet is the students mood, social-ness. And a lot of times I come into that class kind of quiet and i look sad. Partly it's at the end of the day, also i'm going through a lot of stuff so i'm not always in a good mood, and also i don't raelly realize i look sad even though i do, i don't notice that i'm smiling. she even commented on it a few days, shes like "you always come in to class like the world is about to end." i think she thinks i'm a good student and everything, but i'm worried about that question. should i ask another teacher that i don't like much, ask her, or ask her and be like "I know you think i'm never happy looking! but really, I am, it just doesn't seem like it sometimes, and I really to like this class and I'm worried about what you'll write, but i wanted to come to you anyway because you're my favorite teacher" ?????? so what should i do, i really want to do this student travel program!
Photocopy whatever it is that she has to fill out, and if youre not satisfied with what she wrote, ask another teacher to do it.
and two things:
1. Your teacher probably likes you because youre such a good student, so she probably wants you to go. A lot of teachers would just say that you were a generally happy person and all.
2. The recommendation does matter, I'm not going to say that it doesn't. But if there's just one thing that says that you sometimes seem a tad upset, it might not affect whether or not you get accepted if everything else is really good.
I hope that helped!
and also, in my feedback could you leave a link to the program? I'm looking to do something like that. thanks soo much!
