Answer 1

I'm in college, and even adults spread rumors about their math professors. My first math professor was supposed to be extremely difficult, but we got along well and I earned a 97% in the class. You should wait and find out for yourself what the woman is like before you go and worry about the class. Even if you're not good at math, all you have to do is show some respect for the teacher and try hard and you two will get along great. If any of your friends don't like how you get along with the teacher, forget them. When you grow up, you'll remember how you treated that teacher, but the friends you have now probably will not remember you.

Answer 2

haha, my favorite one is to wait for a really hard question, figure out the answer and turn around and talk to the person behind you. When you get called on for it, glance at the question on the board for about two seconds and say the answer. This makes the teacher look dumb. They'll leave you alone for a while. HAHAHA (This only works if ur relatively good at math. Or at the very least you know how to figure it out...) haha. The teacher thought I was cheating with a calculator once when I told her the square root of 1225 after about half a second (35), but I'm really good at math, so sorry if this doesn't work all that great for you.

If you don't wanna try to make the teacher look bad just find someone who can help... I'd give you MY e-mail address, but I end up confusing people more than I help because I do everything different from the teacher. (My way's better. lol.)

Answer 3

Hi:

Here what to do:

1) Read your lessons, follow it thru if you don't understand something, Ask Question about it ,until you do understand it.

2) take good notes; write down what on the blackboard

3) if your taking a test Do the following:


Make sure you get plenty of rest ,and had your breakfast and you studied your math lesson a day or two before it and you understand it

A) Do all the easy problem first , be sure to show step by step how you got your answer. Okay

B) Read the problem ( i"ll give you a example)
1) Find what the answer the problem is asking for?
2) What are the given values?
3) Do you know the formula for solving it?
4) Write down the value and the formula to set the problem
up to be sloved.
5) start sloving it; take it step by step and tell what Math operation your doing at each step along the way
6) if your answer does not agree than backtrack your steps by steps to find out where you made your error and correct it ( Remember All Math problems must equal each other at the end)

7) When you got your answer, replug it back into the equation and rearrage the equation and see if the values equal each other , write it down and take it step by step and show how you got your answer it it don't agree backtrack and find your error and correct it.


When finish your test ahead of time double check your work again to be sure you did it right ( Remember your prone to errors and it won't hurt to check your problems)

Make sure you put your name on the test?

Example :

if Johnny could run at 5 miles an hour How far could Johnny run is 1.5 hours

number one of the bat : What is the answer that the question is ask for?:

Answer: How far has Johnny gone in 1.5 hours

what are the values given?

Answer : 1.5 hrs , 5 miles / hour, find d or d= ?

What is the formula for solving it?

Answer : Distance= rate X time

set the problem up as follows:

Given time or t = 1.5 hr, rate or r= 5 mph, sloving for d

formula to slove for d is : d = r * t

d= t * r orignal equation

d= 1.5* 5 subtitution

d = 7.5 miles multiplication

proof :

d= r * t orignal equation

1/t * d= r*t*1/t arranning terms

d/t= r simipilty terms

7.5/1.5 = r subtitution

5 = r division

r= 5

so r= 5

the answer is correct

Answer 4

What you need to understand is anything a teacher might do to make her seem mean she's still human and still enjoys teaching kids enough to go get a degree for it. She can't be that bad. What you may have heard about her could be that she gives a lot of homework, is very strict about talking in class or late homework, or picks certain people in the class to pick on. This could have been translated after a few tellings into "Ms. 'blank' is soooooooooooooo mean"
Don't be scared about your teacher. Like other answerers have said, follow all the rules she sets and make your best effort in this class. Even if math is your absolute worst subject, you probably aren't the only one in your class who feels that way, and you definetly won't be the only one who has trouble. If your teacher doesn't mind (and yes, you will probably have to ask her) you should set up a group of friends you have in the class for the sole purpose of discussing and catching up on the math work. Believe me, the more you talk about math and explain it to other people, the better you will become and the more you will understand it.
If that's not working or you get too distracted with friends, talk (yes, talk!!) to the teacher. Tell her where you fell behind and why the material is confusing you. This shows commitment to her subject and will most probably earn you her respect, plus a one-on-one talk with the teacher to help you in the class.
Also consider the possibility that it is not always the teacher you are frightened of but the magnitude of the subject. Sometimes teachers can't help what they have to teach.
As an aboslute last resort, talk to your principal. This is only after you've endured more than half the year and have had nothing, absolutely nothing, change your minbd about this teacher's attitude. Keep in mind that when the principal hired her he/she thought your future math teacher would make an excellent teacher. Reasonably present your concerns, and possibly bring one or two (but no more!!!) classmates with you to support your points. A word of caution about this technique. Everything you say about your teacher to the principal will get back to her without fail because the principal will tell her what you said. If you say anything that you would not tell the teacher directly and would prefer her not to hear you should not say it to the principal. You will probably lose any trust or respect the teacher might have had for you, and may not even be comfortable enough to talk to her about any trouble you have with the classwork. All of this supports you sticking the year out and seeing if she is really that bad before talking to her boss. Definetly wait until the end of the year.
Most of all, remember:
the teacher wouldn't be there if she didn't like kids and teaching
what you've heard may not be true
go to your classmates for help
if it's really as bad or worse than you say it is, as a last resort go to your principal.

Good luck in math class next year.

Answer 5

With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.

According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

Answer 6

Well i seriously suck at maths so the first heads up would be to listen. Try not to get on the bad side of the teacher unless you really want to. Dont sit at the back of the class you'll seem like a trouble-maker and not at the front you'll be too easy to notice lol.

Answer 8

if I had a teacher like that,, and it was math, I would do a good job, not suck up, keep everything orginized, (so she doesn't nagg me) be nice, listen to ALL directions, and work hard. I'm only going to be in 6th grade after the summer, but if he/she IS mean, I'll do what I said above.(although I might not go through with the orginize part....... : ) ......)

Answer 9

Fake it. Pretend you like them and get over it. You will have to deal with "mean" people your whole life. Welcome to the real world. Just get through it. Remember it doesn't take much to be a teacher and a heck of them are really bad at it. If you have 1 or 2 really good ones you'll be lucky. They are probably doing the best they can. good luck
