<p>My science teacher isn't a very good teacher, I haven't been doing as well as usual on tests because he doesn't teach us all of the material. All the class agreed so I anonymously emailed the school saying I want to report him ect. In class the next day he had us do a survery. I gave him 1s and 2s. He then was really nice and said have you got any tips for me. And so I wrote a long page and gave it too him, I offered to stay after school to help him be a better teacher. </p>
<p>Anyhow, after school I gave him the list which he asked for and tried to explain where he went wrong but he just didn't want to learn! He was like mm but thats not my problem, and blah blah. Anyhow he said tell me honestly did you send that email, and I unfortunantly instantly said Yes! His entire mood changed and he got extremely angry and said "Was that necessary?, I didn't know you felt like that. You are a high achieving student" I am a high-achievining student because I needed to spend my own time to learn foreign stuff he hadn't taught us!!! </p>
<p>Anyhow, ever since then, it has been about 2 weeks, he has been acting strangely. He isn't treating me the same and is acting really angry. I am afraid that he is going to give me a bad grade. And if not a bad grade, then for the Manners and Respect part of our report, a bad grade! </p>
<p>Should I send him an apology letter? </p>
<p>apologize in person</p>
<p>Bruh this story was so wild. Your classmates set you up so you would take the fall for it if someone got caught. Why would you complain to the school though? That’s kind of nasty on you guys’ part because I’m sure if you addressed him before he would try to change some things. You just made him in danger of losing his job (if he’s an a-hole that’s not bad but if he’s not you guys suck tbh) </p>
<p>You should apologize to him and say you had no mal-intent. I’m sure he’s just stressed right now because your little scheme may cause him to lose his steady income…</p>
<p>To be honest, you shouldn’t have been attempting to tell the teacher how to teach in the first place. You do well in his class and I’m certain he thought you were being obnoxious for doing so. You sending the email was fine, I guess, but then going in to tell him where he can improve as a teacher is not ok. Anyway, you should write an email/letter in addition to apologizing in person. Two weeks have passed, why have you not apologized? Two weeks seems like far too long a time period and he will most likely resent your apology, but still apologize because if you do not, his opinion of you will be even lower and that may affect your grade.</p>
<p>P.S. if all you care about is your grade, that’s wrong. You sincerely hurt his feelings and you apologize to him, to help with HIS feelings, not to assure your grade in his class.</p>
<p>No, I asked my year coordinator and he was familiar with this teacher and knows he isn’t a very good one. He told me to send an email to the school and so I did. My teacher actually asked me what he can do to improve and I told him! The rest of the class are failing, I took the initiative to study what other classes are learning though. </p>
<p>If I have been doing much better in other classes and worse in his and putting more effort in then there is clearly something wrong with his teachings. And if the entire class agrees with me there is definitely something wrong! </p>
<p>“And so I wrote a long page and gave it too him, I offered to stay after school to help him be a better teacher.”
If you don’t think that makes you obnoxious, then our advice is not going to help you much.</p>
<p>“If I have been doing much better in other classes and worse in his and putting more effort in then there is clearly something wrong with his teachings”
You thought that science should be as easy as your other courses? Have you never heard about people saying that STEM courses are notoriously difficult just because your mind has to be wired that way, otherwise it takes considerable work. Also, you can’t get bad grades on the test unless if you got the question wrong. If you need a teacher to learn material then college is going to suck for you because the professors don’t even try to cover all of the material in college because there just isn’t enough time</p>
<p>It’s fine if you think he is doing something outright disruptive like not teaching and just surfing the web while he gives you worksheets. If he gives lectures and teaches the information, then you were completely obnoxious to say you could teach him how to be a better teacher. It’s kind of like an intern at Facebook trying to tell Zuckerberg how to program.</p>
<p>I had a different teacher before. I didn’t study with this teacher. I studied with this teacher and yet I got worse grades - and chemistry is my forte. He allows the class to disrupt him, he isn’t strict. Other members of the class talk back and shout at him and he doesn’t say anything. He spends 1 week going over something which other classes learnt in 15 minutes - things that aren’t even relevant. </p>
<p>Just apologize in person. Trust me, I’ve had to do it (but not for the same reasons as you). Apologizing in person shows you are taking responsibility for your actions, even if your actions were justified. The teacher will generally have more respect for you after that.</p>
<p>I have decided to apologise in person. Thanks for your help everyone. I realise it was a very obnoxious thing to do!! I feel awful</p>
