I can absolutely promise you that if he’s a decent teacher, he’s not going to yell at you if you behave in a reasonable fashion. (and if he does, you can have him reported.) Just tell him you don’t feel that you’re ready for honors math. You didn’t sign up for this- you were placed. You really think it might be a bit much for you. Tell him you were willing to try, but you’re lost.

If he suggests you come in before or after school, give it a thought. I know you don’t think you have time, but if he can give you help on your homework, that’s a LOT less time you’ll spend at home doing it, especially if you’re struggling. You might have to spend some time to save some time. If he sees that youre really, really trying, and you still do badly, then he might let you transfer out. If he doesn’t let you transfer out, it’s because he believes in you. (it’s not that he wants a bigger class size, I can promise you that!)

The teachers and administrators are there to help you. Act like an adult, talk to them reasonably. If your teacher thinks you can do the work, maybe he is right!! Sometimes a student just needs to get past a difficult point, and then can rise to the challenge. This is a challenge for you! Go for it!

going to learn anything this

way. A child should be

encouraged to learn and not

ridiculed. If you have a

counselor, go tell them this guy is just too hard and you cannot learn from him.

Try to get a parent to go

in to the school and offer

a good argument. This is

not a concentration camp.

They should allow you to tell

your side. Best of luck

Anyway, if you keep getting F’s , you won’t have any problem dropping out.

And he CAN’T force you to come in except AT regular school times. Just sit there with your arms crossed.

Unless you actually want to be a GOOD student and do what you’re told. ?

Or you could talk to a principal or vice principal and ask about it if you really are afraid of him.

My parents are about the same way that your teacher is, and you need to talk to your parents about the way that your teacher is pressuring you.

If you’re afraid to ask for help then you can’t learn, because to understand something that doesn’t just come to you you need to ask questions and get the answers explained step-by-step.

Best of luck, hope you get out of there alive.
