Algebra 2.
I'm in Alg 2, and my teacher constantly picks on me to go to the board & do problems. I didn't learn ANY Alg 1, so this is kind of confusing. Everytime I go to the board, I go up and say 'I have no idea how to do this' and my teacher just goes, 'come to tutorials'. But then she still makes me do the problem, and I get completely embarrassed. There's 43 kids in this class, we had 7 problems to do on the board, and she made me do 4 of them. I think she knows that I don't know how to do them so she just picks on me. I don't think embarrassing me is going to help me learn. What should I do?

Say "If I don't know how to do it, how the hell do you expect me to do it on the board in front of everyone? Pick someone who is smart and knows the subject."
perhaps you should go to tutorials, but if she wants to be a bitch to you, there's no reason you can't be one back.

I would suggest going to one of the tutorials so she can see that you're not just doing it to look cute for the boys... some teachers are just like that. you could talk to her about it after class and make an effort to at least look like youre really trying by being on time, having everything with you and going to tutorials/asking questions. she should stop picking on you after that. if you need anything else, let me know. i had a horrrrible algebra teacher. <3

i think you should def. confront her. math is a killer and always got me feeling dumb and frustrated hon. your teacher must know that you're having trouble. maybe she is trying to get you to come to her and ask her for advice by embarressing you. not trying to hurt your feeings though. tell her that you do need help, but not infront of the entire class. see if you can stay after for help, or get tutor classes from her. just make sure she knows it hurts your feelings, and that you're not comfortable with it. see if any of your friends get algebra 2, and maybe they can try and help explain it to you sweetie!
hope i helped you. :]
