What I would suggest is that you probably need more time to adjust to your new school. More importantly, because you say that you are living with your relatives I take it that you are not with your mum and dad at the moment. I think this would very well have an effect on your studies. I think you are feeling a lot of anger, which is why you reacted strongly to your teacher's question. Although you have 'never failed' in your lifetime, this is one of those occasions where you are having to deal with failure at a time when your confidence might be at a low point.
However, failure is relative, and this is a chance for you to challenge what you may see as a setback and learn some valuable life lessons, which of course will help you grow and become a stronger person. Then of course, you will feel stronger and not be so worried about passing tests since, if you always do your best, you will be happy in the knowledge that you are becoming a better person.

If this teacher seems like you can approach him, then yes, you should go talk to him. Tell him about the kind of student you were at your last school. Also tell him you have no intentions of failing, but would there be any tips he could give you on how to do well in his class.
Being mad in his class is only going to hurt your education. It won't change anything for him, he already has his job. If you are unable to talk to him, try to at least do well in his class. Maybe you could find a student or two from that class that could advise you on how to do well for that teacher.
The teacher should not really ask you if you are going to pass, but sometimes that is a way for adults to try and "encourage" success. My own dad was like that, but he didn't mean any harm. He just wanted me to do the best I could so I would have a good life. Unfortunately, it took many years for me to see that was what he was doing, so I too spent a lot of time mad. When I would try to explain to him that I could do a good job, he'd say: "WELL THEN GET ON THE BALL!!!!" That to him was encouragement, it was meant to bring out the best in me.
Good luck in your studies, and no matter what ANYBODY says, you CAN do it! Take care.

Hi friend,
I really understand your situation. But even u need undersatnd tjat your teacher is really concerned about you that is the reason he called u & adviced u. All that u have to do now is study very well & perform extremely well in your next test & prove the teacher that u r not a dull student. And then u see the difference in your teacher the way u will be treated will be different. And who knows that theacher might become your favourite...........in future.

The teacher is a mirror.whatever he has said there must be some reason behind it .Therefore think what you have written in the paper.You had been scoring well does not mean that you will always score better.So try to find faults in you and mend the ways so as to get good marks as you had been doing.the teacher will also be happy that the student had taken his advice in true spirit.

Never advise a teacher. Prove to him that you are not a dull student and work harder. If there are any distractions in you new environment try avoiding them by studying elsewhere. And don't stop listening in his class. It'll only make matters worse.

The teacher has done his duty. Now it is your turn to get back to your studies as you did before coming out from your home.
It happens with all the children who, all of a sudden, leave their parents and live with some other family. Studies are affected due to change in environment. Do change yourself also and concentrate on your studies.
You should be thankful to the teacher who pointed out your mistake… thank him and assure him that you would improve…
All the very best…

the best way to approach such a difficulty is to calm down yourself and talk it to your friends or fmaily members and see how they approach to it. if hey ignore you i think the best way is that you tell your head of year or your depu hea that you are having a very difficult time with that teacher and you would prefer another teacher or go into another class. if still no action is taken please do write a letter to your head teacher and sign your name on it.
i think that is the best way to approach to such a suitation

u do very well in studies, ur just takin time to adjust
a bright student like u shouldn't worry about teachers like that: they're mean and heartless
who cares if he thinks ur a failure, get 90% and show him what u really r.
if u really wanna get back at him, do EXTREMELY well in his subject: he'll be embarrassed that he can't understand his own students! and he'll shut up!
GOOD LUCK

My recommendation is to put your anger away and show him and yourself that you can do well.
Consider that he may have been challenging you. This is a technique used by educators.
If he was just being nasty, consider that he might have personal problems with his own life, then feel sorry for him. Feeling sorry for someone who is acting up is a much better emotion than feeling angry at someone.
Anger is almost always a destructive emotion; it will do YOU more harm than good.
From my own personal experiences...
Hope this helps!
