teacher-recommendation thing
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!

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Work/School Relationships?
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!

You should ask her, if she is a good teacher. I'm sure that she will realize this student travel thing is a good thing, and it is very good of you to want to volunteer your time for this.

i would definitely ask her if she'd fill it out for you, and tell her that you really are a happy person. maybe even explain what you jsut explained on here to her, if you feel comfortable enough.
good luck, & hope i helped :]
