Can I blame the teacher.. — Page 2

Here's my advice. As an A student myself, I have to remind you how incredibly inflated highschool marks are. If the teacher is making the course hard, then you should be thanking them for preparing you for the harsh world of University.

With that said, I don't think it's the teacher's fault. I don't think it is anyones fault. The course is hard, and the teacher isn't generous with marks. If you want to improve your mark, go to class early one morning and ask the teacher what he or she would recommend. That way the teacher knows what kind of mark you would like to get, and what you are willing to do to achieve that mark.

If all else fails, bribe the teacher.

Remember a time when if a student wasn't doing well in a class, it was the student's fault????

I mean...it wasn't THAT long ago. But suddenly, it's the teacher's problem if a student isn't doing well. Worse still are the parents. If I wasn't doing particularly well in a class (not something that happened much, he says as modestly as possible), my parents would have never DREAMED to blame the teacher.

Dear Sally Brown,

Kindly check the spelling of the word "definitely".

That said, I find it preposterous that you get "A's" in English.

Yours for a better-spelled world,

Well said.

And I think most people are too hard on teachers, but there are certainly some bad teachers out there.

I think Dollypop may be one of them...

Lordy, I was exhuasted last night and I don't really care about computer grammar!



That being said, I know it's not right to blame teachers, but what would you do if you had a teacher who shoves, looks at everyone as though they were idiots, and doesn't really like children at all? I mean she really doesn't, so why is she teaching kids?


And for the second time, yes, I am getting an A in English. Thank you.

Dear Sally Brown,

Your last posting seemed a little terse. Is something bothering you? Has Liam dumped you?

Your concerned friend,

Dollypop, you're a riot.
