Please correct this sentence. Thank you?
She doesn’t work hard for her grades and she gives up easily when she doesn’t understand something. Her being the opposite of ambitious is probably why she fails many of her subjects at school and she had to attend summer school.

Everything is correct until the end, where it should read:
“…and WHY she had to attend summer school.”
FYI: “Her being the opposite of ambitious” is an awkward way of backing into the thought. Why not just say “That she lacks ambition likely accounts for why she fails…”

One reason she fails many of her subjects at school may be because she is unambitious. She doesn’t work hard for her grades, and gives up easily when faced with something she doesn’t understand. That is why she had to attend summer school.

She doesn’t work hard to make good grades and gives up easily when she doesn’t understand something. Her unambitious nature is likely the reason she fails many of her school subjects and was required to attend summer school.

She doesn’t work hard for her grades; She gives up easily when she doesn’t understand something. Also, she fails many of her classes and has had to attend summer school from being antonymous with ambition.

(Persons name) has failed many courses at school. She does not uphold to the expectations set by her teacher(s), does not strive to make her grades and gives up easily when she does not understand something. (Persons name) has had to attend summer school because of this.

The first sentence is OK. The second is awkward.
“She seems to display the opposite of ambition …..” or “Her lack of ambition is…..”
Or even “Attending summer school was a result of her failing grades that seems to stem from her lack of ambition”.

All I can think of is an additional comma after the first use of the word “school,” and everything else seems fine.
Now, of course, there are other ways of wording the paragraph, but you wanted corrections rather than changes, right?
