adviceman49 answered Thursday December 6 2018, 9:11 am: Generally when someone says "you have potential" they mean they see something in you that needs nurturing to bring out the best in you. Depending in what context it is said it can have somewhat different meaning. If a teacher uses that phrase it is generally followed with but he/she is not applying themselves or he/she needs to look at advanced studies in a subject.
If a teacher has said, "you have potential" without further explanation you should ask what they meant. The one thing you do not want to waste is your potential. Take advantage of what your school has to offer in the area of potential. Should the school not have the resources then your parents need to fight for them to supply what you need.
