Why Is My Teacher Doing This Help

I lied to my teacher....help?

This is a lesson of life. Sometimes you do everything right, and still fail, and sometimes you do everything wrong, and still succeed.

You teacher probably has "lost" papers before, misplaced them, perhaps threw student papers out, by mistake, and has had to make allowances for her errors before.

You can "make it up" to teacher by doing great work for the rest of the year, and thus justifying the faith the teacher had in you, that you deserved the points or grades she gave you, for nothing actually.

Do NOT tell her (I'm a former teacher, so know it's best not to) because it will make her think she was wrong in "trusting you.", and you put something over on her, taking advantage of her good nature to give you credit even though she never saw your project.

Often one project, one test, one assignment really isn't a "sink or swim" event in a whole year, normally over 160 days of class. Instead, what you do in the other 159 days determine whether you deserve a good grade or not.

I once went to a teacher and apologized for something, it's been so long ago, I forget what the problem was. But, I still remember that the teacher laughed, and said that I was one of his best students, and if he had more like me, teaching would be so much more fun or worthwhile. He said he was glad to have me, so no need to apologize for "one mistake".

You may not know this, it's a deep secret, but teachers often let "good students" slide, may even not look at their papers as closely as they look at worse students. Teachers often look for excuses to give good students better grades than those students who are discipline problems.
The idea, is to let "bad students" know they don't get away with anything. Whereas, favors often are doled out to students who make a teacher's day brighter. Now, don't tell anyone this secret!

Give up the guilt, and instead, get on with your lessons, studies, and call this a lesson well learned about what not to do in the future.

What you might have done, instead, would have been to ask for more time, or taken an "F" for one project, and then make it up with harder work after that.
But, IF you did that, you would have never learned the terrible cost of deception, and fact that she won't ever get to see what you really could have done, if you could have made the time limit.

Either way, you have learned something, call it even.

Please help! Does my teacher like me?

A young woman teacher with obvious liberal tendencies explains to her class of small children that she is an atheist. She asks her class if they are atheists too. Not really knowing what atheism is but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like fleshy fireworks. There is, however, one exception. A beautiful girl named Lucy has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I'm not an atheist." Then, asks the teacher, "What are you?" "I'm a Christian." The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Lucy why she is a Christian. "Well, I was brought up knowing and loving Jesus. My mom is a Christian, and my dad is a Christian, so I am a Christian." The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?" She paused, and smiled. "Then," says Lucy, "I'd be an atheist." ........................................... Teacher: Where is your homework? Pupil: I lost it fighting this kid who said you weren't the best teacher in the school ........................................... The teacher spent the entire hour reading to her class about the bison family. When she had finished, she said, “Name some things that are very dangerous to get near to and have horns.” Little Johnny spoke up without hesitation, “Automobiles?” ........................................... A little boy just couldn't learn. One day his teacher asked him who signed the Declaration of Independence. He didn't know. For almost a week she asked him the same question every day, but still he couldn't come up with the right answer. Finally, in desperation, she called the boy's father to her office. "Your boy won't tell me who signed the Declaration of Independence," she complained. "Come here, son, and sit down," the dad said to the boy. "Now if you signed that crazy thing, just admit it so we can get out of here!"

My teacher won't help me?

I'm a freshman in high school, and having a very difficult time in a specific class. Civics. Pardon my french, but my teacher's an ***. He never explains anything to me, and I've asked him countless times what I'm doing incorrectly and how I can fix my mistakes. I've stayed after school until 6 pm in the evening everyday for the past 4 weeks. We've had meetings before. My teacher, my mom, and I. He should understand that I'm new to this information and he expects us to remember all of this stuff without even getting help, he says, "well this person is doing pretty good in my class. AT THE MOMENT" which means only a few are barely passing. I take classes with 12th graders by the way, and he always brags to people about how they're a model pupil, how are they a model pupil if they take a class with a bunch of freshmen! he's also like, "you should be like this person, they understand this more." like no ****, they're about to graduate... So really, what I'm trying to say is that I HATE THIS CLASS. and absolutely dread it everytime I have to go. I wish that this wasn't a required course, because I am tired of being stressed over the classwork & homework. It is literally depressing. I don't know what else to do, cause if I don't bring my grade up I'll have to retake this class and that is the last thing I want to do.

You are responsible for your life and what is going on in it. Not the teachers, professors, or school administration. It is up to you how to are going to react and recover from life events.Why haven't you checked your email? Along with messages of encouragement from friends and family you are probably missing communications from your professors. Email is the primary way I contact my students outside of school. You know your grades are bad. Now what are you going to do to improve them? Do  you plan on improving them? Starting when? Is the content important enough to you to learn even if you do not get full credit for what you have missed?Now that you have decided for yourself what is important and what you are willing to do you have a base to work from when talking to each of your teachers. Present what your difficulty is, how you are putting it behind you ( if you are), your desire to work to improve your grade, and what you are willing to do. Accept each teachers answer graciously and if they give you a chance to improve your grade work to exceed each one's instructions, And do it in a timely matter. Do not lie, do not promise what you know you cannot or will not do.All of us have spots in our lives which suck. We show what our character is by how we get through it and what we do after.

Your question is broader in context as you haven’t mentioned any reason why you are scared of your teacher.I remember when I was in grade 10, my math teacher had a very strange mood. He would usually joke and laugh with us together, but sometimes, he would feel very irritated even at the slightest thing that he didn’t mind making us stand up or sending us out of the classroom.There was a time when he refused to let me enter the classroom because of visiting our school library to get some papers. I only went out since he allowed us to take his lesson to do our exhibition preps for the next day at school.Since then, I had this strange sense of fear when I saw him. I couldn’t smile nor could answer any of his questions. Whoever saw me during his lesson might have thought that I was the dumbest person in the class.The sense of fear never faded until I graduated to 12th grade because he was still teaching us in grade 11.The downside is, when you are scared of your teacher, it can potentially put an end to your grades or performance because you will lose focus and his/her appearance would be a complete distraction.I wasn’t good at math simply because of my teacher, and I pray and hope this won’t happen to anyone. If you are scared of your teacher, you should seek some help from your school or talk to your parents.There was a time when I deeply regretted being so dumb and stupid as I didn’t take any measures nor did I tell anyone about this. I even lost interest in the subject which was very bad though I survived in the exam.So please, don’t let the fear overtake you. The sooner you get some help, the better.All the best!

Help please? My teacher kissed me??????

Hi Cherri. I've been thinking about your situation. First of all, you HAVE to know that teachers and students kissing, dating... is VERY illegal. Remember that one gym teacher in Mean Girls? He was sent to jail! It doesn't matter how old he is, he's still a teacher. Think of him as a normal guy in a room with you with the door shut. You'd know what he REALLY want. Think about other girls he'd do the same after you! He may even sleep with them! That's just plain wrong! YOU have to save yourself and all the girls after! You should of slapped him right when he kissed you, wait, you should of known when he closed the door. But I understand, you were scared, surprised, confused and since he's a teacher, you never thought about a scene like that.

He's liked at school eh? Well, you can't live the rest of your life with everyone hating you. I got a plan. This will be the best "play" ever! You'll be the main character with the whole school as the audience. Th scene will be in the girl's locker room or the cafeteria. Everyone will be talking and stuff, happy scene. But the all of a sudden you start crying, I mean like an ocean of tears! Wait for lotsa people surrounding you, if there's a teacher in the crowd, even better! At first when everyone's asking the reason your crying, say no. But when there's like tons of people, start telling the story slowly. They'll understand, feel sorry for you and won't hate you, I promise. The story will spead around like crazy. When they ask why you never told anyone, say you afraid that if I told anyone, he'll rape me, or something like that :D. After a few day, tell you family. If the rumor got to their ears, then good. But don't say that your teacher threaten you that he'll rape you, ok? Just you your afraid that he would.

It's the only way to punish him and not be hated. Be strong, think about the girls after you. What will the go through?? It's like cancer, you'll have to get ride of it when it just got started, or else. Good luck, and I hope it'll never happen to you or anyone ever again.

My teacher thinks i plagiarized, help?!?

It's up to her to prove it. Do you have your rough drafts? Any witnesses that you wrote the paper yourself? Tell your parents what's going on. If she gives you the threatened zero unfairly, then have parents go over her head to the principal or dean. No luck there, go to the school board. Did you cite your sources? It's always been okay if you paraphrase the sentences, it's plagiarizing when you copy the sentence verbatim without quoting and citing the source. Your teacher should know that.

After reading a few of these responses, I feel compelled to offer you some advice.Informing your teacher that there is a website that could potentially be used/ is being used for cheating is not snitching.Comparing something so rudimentary to snitching is ridiculous. I agree that you should never snitch, but this question doesn't even apply. Don't give names, but cheating is just as bad as being a “tattle-tale”Keep your mouth shut about important things. This whole thread is dumb.
