Be yourself. If you act, teachers will tell the difference (assumeing they are doing their job, as opposed to just doing it for the money).

You cannot "make" people like you, and teachers are people. What you can do, is be yourself. As long as "yourself" is not a person who cusses alot, deals drugs, picks fights with other students, or turns your work in late, with little to no effort involved, your teacher should like you just fine (again, assumeing a decent class size, and a teacher who teaches).

My math is grade 10 level, kinda like math Pm, or extra credit, though I think I'm being redirected to normal math or as it is called am.... But I am unsure as to what semester my math is, so it could be like 4 months from now :/

Most of my teachers over the years have, outwardly at least, loved me. This year I have the challenge of Ms. Burton and a new Physics teacher so we'll see where that goes.

I think one of the things that really helped me out with some of the teachers is to "hang out" with them. For example, I often went to my Chemistry teacher's room last year during home room to discuss various things (at one point I was teaching myself Thermodynamics and he helped me out a lot... then I realized that I didn't have the math skills I needed yet. Perhaps I'll learn them in Pre-calculus this year.).

Another teacher, Mr. Lyter, who was definitely my favorite teacher... ever. He would have been my physics teacher this year, but he left teaching in favor of running a diner. Our two families have alternated having New Years at each other's houses for the past three or four years, so that helped a lot. I also spent a lot of time talking with Mr. Lyter.

Then there was my English teacher last year, Mr. Folk. He was a pretty poor teacher, but he liked me a lot. I got off to a good start, on the first day we had to write a paragraph describing something and my creative writing ability far surpassed the entire class's, and earned me a bit of applause at the same time, (and all his other ones too) which I felt was quite an achievement. He liked a me lot from then on out.

Those are just a few examples, but there are a lot of advantages to being on a teacher's good side. They are more likely to give you the benefit of the doubt, for example I tend to be forgetful and have left a completed assignment at home a few times over the course of my High School career... more times than not my teachers have allowed me to bring it in the next day with no loss of points. It is also a good thing for essays, when things can be interpreted in different ways and there are certain levels of correct answer.

Follow the rules, ask questions, don't act like a complete know-it-all (guilty on all counts), and spend some time out of class with them, and a lot of teachers will grow to like you. It makes life easier in school, and its nice to have a few adult friends to talk to (I personally prefer their company to my peers, its easier to have an intelligent conversation with someone with a college degree, or so I've found).

Those are my experiences anyway.

i will in the next few days i have an essay id like you guys to score for me!

Boleslov didn't you do this thread last year and I sort of ruined it? Good job on doing it again and trying to help people before they go back.

I am not sure you are supposed to redirect people to other sites, but check out wolframalpha. It can solve pretty much every math problem including graphs. It also shows work which is quite convenient.

lol thats amazing when i start calculus i am going to check that out.
