Looking back on my past experience, I would say that asking a teacher for extra help is not as simple as it seems, especially when we do not have a good relationship with him or her (the teacher). I had some problems with my geography teacher before this. I didn’t like her very much, she used to make fun of me, make a fool of herself and scold me for nothing (that’s what I thought), but as the days went by I realized that I was actually having problems with myself, she wasn’t to be guilty.

I hated her because I needed to find an excuse for my own faults. She couldn’t follow her teaching style, actually it was my fault, I didn’t want to tell her that problem: I thought it was just a waste of time, I just answered every time she scolded me. , but then who am I to say what she will and won’t do, I didn’t even give her a chance to hear what I think, how can she help me when she didn’t want to talk? Remembering those times makes me feel silly.

However, fortunately for me, I have learned my lesson. Other than that, I’ve learned a few ways I could try to make it up to teachers and have a better relationship with them, which can make me feel more comfortable talking to them, asking questions, and even more, having a conversation. friendly with them, improving my relationship with them, therefore, my concentrations. what a pity for me, I have moved from the school, I did not even have the opportunity to apologize to her, as I regret being rude to her, well, you know who you are, if you think the teacher I’m talking about you Please forgive me for all the bad things I’ve done to you. Anyway, if you’re a student having problems like this, do yourself a favor and follow my tips below on how to have a better relationship with your teacher and eventually you’ll have an easier time asking for help from them.

1. Think positive

In everything you or your teacher do, think positive! If your teacher always criticizes you, chances are they think that’s the best way to hold you accountable for your mistakes.

You must be saying to yourself right now “Oh please, that’s just playing dumb.” You may be right, but let’s think this way, not all people think like you, people react to the same situation with different reactions. For example, when people are stuck in a traffic jam, some act as if it is the worst day of their lives and others act in a different way, or as I put it, in a more positive way by making the best of it. situation. , listening to the radio, laughing with your passengers, or doing whatever else you find useful, instead of banging on the window sill and honking your car horn as loud as you can.

You can see from the example how dumb people can be, just because of their thoughts. My point here is, when a teacher makes fun of you or criticizes you, do not act violent, ask him face to face why he did it, if you are not satisfied with his answer, ask him to stop because he will hurt you. your feelings, I’m pretty sure your teacher will immediately stop that kind of behavior and try to find a better solution, this will surely make you feel better. People with a positive attitude, that’s all it takes to be successful.

2. Be brave

In everything we do, we need to have the courage to act, it’s the same as talking to your teacher, don’t be shy, that’s just playing dumb, when you need something from your teacher, just tell her you have nothing to lose, just do it , she won’t eat you. She is your teacher anyway, she will be happy to help you as long as you show her respect. Talk to her about your performance briefly after class, make a date with her. If you didn’t get a chance to, leave a note on her desk. As long as she can receive the message from her.

3. Be courteous and friendly

In order to want to have a good relationship with your teacher, you must be courteous and friendly with him or her. All teachers in this world like to help their students, otherwise why would they choose to be a teacher? Make them feel like they are your friends.

4. Commitment

When she has set you a study date with her, be committed, be punctual! This will show her that you are serious about your studies and not making fun of her. Extra help means extra work, get it done, stick with it, and hopefully you’ll succeed. In addition, you will gain her trust and respect.

5. Stay monitored

To avoid getting sidetracked, ask your friend and family to keep an eye on you, ask them to make sure you finish your chores and ‘extra’ chores on time. This will be quite annoying at first, but imagine all the success you could achieve by doing this.

6. Thank your teacher.

After he’s helped you, he could really use a little thank you from you, show him how grateful you are for his help. This will make her happy to help you and even happy to be appreciated. We can see here how a simple word of thanks can make a person happy.

I think that’s all of me. Let’s review what we’ve learned here, shall we? First, whatever you do, think positive, that’s how you can be successful. Second, be brave, don’t be shy to talk to your teacher. Third, be courteous and kind to your teacher, praise her sincerely, after all, she deserves it after all her hard work to help her students.

Fourth, commit to your studies, be punctual! Fifth, keep yourself monitored by the people you love. Last but not least, thank your teacher, she has helped you, so why not thank her as if you were returning a favor from her? So it’s up to you, make your decision, decide what you want to do, apply it or leave it. The choice is up to you. Have a good life.
