Hi there, I’m having some problems with one of my history teacher. For some reason she has a strong dislike towards me and I don’t know why; I get good grades, I complete most of the work, I don’t disrupt the class etc. Two weeks ago I was ill so I missed the lesson, and one of my classmates gave me a booklet that has essay questions and she said I had to do one for homework. I only found out after I gave the essay to my teacher last week that I was supposed to do the third question (part 1)

“And not the first. So essentially I handed her the wrong essay. Yesterday she gave me a detention for doing the wrong one, and I strongly believe it was out of order especially because I did an essay, just not the one she gave us. I honestly don’t know what to do because I feel like she’s out to get me. Also, I didn’t go to her detention because I had a debate club, but I stayed back to finish it. But when I hand it to her she would be even more annoyed and say why I didn’t come back. Any help?”

Try to explain your feelings to your teacher and how you consider it unfair.  Ask for her interpretation of her actions.

All you can do is ask.  That’s too bad about what is happening.  You could also ask another teacher you know for advice.  Good luck.

Recently I’ve been having anxiety attacks while in my math class. I don’t know why it’s happening in that class. I feel completely drained and sick afterwards. I don’t like going to that class anymore when I used to love it. Any advice?

Try to reflect individually on what you’re feeling before, during and after that class.  How specifically do you feel?  Try to pinpoint a cause.  Talk to your teacher that you’re feeling stressed about the class and would like some assistance to help you through it.

I hope things work out.
