How to deal with a bad teacher?

"What have I gotten myself into?"

You state you have a bad science teacher. OK. These are the reasons why:

1. All she does is assign us pages to read in our books and notebook pages to go with them. She assigns WAY WAY WAY too much homework. I'm talking 3-4 hours a night.

Reality: Americans are far behind most other countries in Math and Science. This means students everywhere else know more than you, even in very poor countries. This means in the future your job may be outsourced to another country.

2. She assigns WAY WAY WAY too much homework. I'm talking 3-4 hours a night.

Reality: Work is your ticket to tomorrow. It provides you with additional practice and makes you a more productive reader. Kids who do their Home Work tend to be brighter and score better on tests than those who don't.

3. All she does is assign us pages to read in our books and notebook pages to go with them

Reality: There are not enough hours in the school day for your teacher to cover everything. Information doubles every 4 years. She has to teach but since they are not enough hours to cover everything in the classroom, she assigns pages to read so you can catch up with the rest of the world.

4. As for the crossword puzzle, I agree with you on that. How could you have known.

5. She loses everything and I have an A in every single class except for her's where I have a D+.

Reality: She is probably overworked, disorganized, and tired and doesn't have time to grade all those papers. If she has for example 4 classes and 120 students in total, and she collects HW everyday. Suppose it takes her 5 min to grade each paper = 600 min / 60=10 hours a day just to grade. It is impossible for any teacher to spend 10 hours a day grading.

Solutions:

A. Make 2 copies of every assignment you hand in to her including Home Work. Therefore when the end of the marking period comes and she can't find much for you, you have a copy to give her.

B. Don't have your mom email her anymore. It is a waste of time!

C. Write a polite note to the teacher and give it to her personally. See below:

Dear Ms._____.

Please don't yell at me in class as I find it difficult to participate or concentrate when you do so.

Sincerely,

Your Name

D. Show her your report card and ask her how you can improve in her class. (This is for her to see that you are a straight A student and realize she has not been fair in her grading. Come report card time she will remember your grades!)

6. She is also the only science teacher for the grade so I cannot switch. What should you do?

Reality: Stick with the class. Be polite to her always. Offer to help her grade student papers during your lunch time. You can also offer to collect students homework at the start of class and check off on a list who gave theirs in and who didn't. (This is to make her work load easier.)
