I got a bad mark


Question Posted Friday November 4 2016, 5:13 am

I am 14 and I am usually an A student. However on this certain maths test I got the worst mark I've ever gotten in my years in middle school. I didn't fail or anything but it was still pretty bad. I was upset not only because of that but also because we have a pretty bad teacher; she confuses us, like she first says it's that then she says it's the other way around. And some of the things on that test she didn't even teach us about. I am very upset as I found this unite easy usually.
Advice appreciated.

If you have a bad teacher or a teacher who is hard to understand and won't clarify what they are saying. The time to say something is when you first feel this way; not when you get a bad grade. Doing so now is like a mechanic blaming his tools for not correcting a problem with your car.

If as you say you do have a bad teacher or one you have trouble understanding you can not fix this yourself. You need to have your parents have a conference with the school principal to plead your case. You will be part of the conference at which time you can tell the principal how you feel about this instructor and why. Your parents can ask if another class is available for you to be moved to that class or you can be removed from that class and make it up over the summer or possibly at the community college in the evening.

These are the options available though your parents need to make the request.
