Teacher that doesn't teach


Question Posted Monday October 22 2007, 10:51 pm

Hello there, I have a big problem. I take Biology honors, and I learn by seeing and hearing. But the thing is that my teacher doesn't really teach...I don't know how to study for her tests, and her tests have so much information on them. I really need help knowing on how to study for her test. I have exams coming up in 3 weeks...and I really need some help.

Thank you in advance, and any advice will so be helpfull...

Your teacher doesn't know what she is doing wrong... so you have to be there to help her realize that. Right now, she is probably thinking... "oh my students learned so much in class today." but in reality... you are sitting there, looking at your homework and thinking what the heck are they asking me to do? am I right??

When you have time, (like an open hour, or during breaks, after/before school) go up to her and tell her that you are having trouble and you want extra help from her. What people in my school normally do is come in before or after school and stay for about an hour and have the teacher help you with things that you don't understand. If she says she has no time... then just straight out tell her that "you talk about these things in class, but you don't explain them good enough for me to fully understand what it means."

If you cannot get contact of her during breaks or whatever, then see if she has an email address and write her one. (don't forget to tell her who you are and when you have her class. oh and also your email address so she can respond to)
She might have a voicemail or phone number, you could try calling her.

If none of these solutions work, then try searching for a tutor. Maybe an online tutor or from a book?? My mom also bought me this CD for your computer that you install and it helps you. The one I have is ACT and SAT prep. So maybe theres something out there for biology.

You just need to do a little digging around and you'll find help.

You need to talk to the teacher. Say to her, you never tell us what we need to know. It can not hurt to ask, let the teacher realize what shwe is doing wrong, maybe others will back you up.
Belive me this works. If that doesnt work,just
tell your mom or dad to call the school. But if your mom or dad doesnt want to do that, just tell your princibel your self, if you cant tell your princibel, then your not going to get help, then your really screwed!!!!

HOPE I HELPED!!!!
