Hey guys, so today I got back my math results. Usually I am a good student in class and participate. However my math teacher does not recognise me or my friend even though we work super hard. She always says we(the class) are disruptive even though most of us aren’t even talking or anything. She teaches in a way that we do not understand and the whole class agrees. She blames us for her mistakes and she gaslights us. She always blames her mistakes on us and she does not respect our privacy. When we were given our marks, she said that we should let other people see our marks and stuff like that. I need advise on this. Ty
Hey @user678312,
It sounds like you take your role as a student seriously. You participate, you try, and you expect that effort to be seen. When that recognition isn’t there, it can feel discouraging.
You also mentioned that your teacher often says the class is disruptive and that her teaching style is hard to follow. When that happens repeatedly, it can start to feel like the effort you put in doesn’t change how the situation goes. Anyone in that position might start questioning whether the problem is themselves, the teacher, or something else happening in the classroom.
I’m also curious about something you said earlier, that you are usually a good student who participates. Has something changed recently in how you feel in this class? Or has this tension with the teacher been happening for a while?
You described the situation as unfair and mentioned things like blaming the class or not respecting privacy with marks. Those experiences can feel uncomfortable, especially when you care about doing well.
At the same time, sometimes the way a situation feels from a student’s side can look different from a teacher’s perspective. That doesn’t mean your experience is wrong, but it can make the situation harder to sort out alone.
Apart from sharing here, have you had a chance to talk to another teacher, a form teacher, or a school counsellor about what’s been happening in the class?
Sometimes having another adult hear the situation can help clarify what might be going on and what options students have.
For now, what I’m hearing most clearly is that you care about your learning and you’re trying to understand why things feel unfair. That is a good place to start and it may help if you speak to your school counsellor for support?
hello, I can see the effort through your constant participation. The teacher may be a little stressed, and I do not think she is talking about anyone in general. It is good to set your boundaries for your marks, as I understand that everyone has different preferences on marks since it is for self-improvement <3. please continue working hard and all the best op!
Thank you so much for ur reply:) it helped me a lot, so sorry i wasn’t able to respond earlier, yes, i do speak to my school counsellor. But now my math teacher has just been flat out ignoring me, i raise my hand up for 5 minutes and she still doesn’t acknowledge it even though she clearly sees my hand, she calls us bad students and I get the vibe that she hates us. Thank you!!
thank u so much:) !!!
