I think my teachers would say well madison I'm sorry. It's not that I don't like you (some excuse)

I'm sorry to hear your teachers don't like you. I teach and I love all my students!!! LOL You have received wonderful feedback here and I think it's frankly amazing that you care this much about this matter.
Just one other perspective.....sometimes at younger ages we are 'tested' in ways that become quite formative for later challenges. What if.....and I know this is a bit of a stretch.....you are simply being 'taught' by the universe the lesson of perseverence in the face of adversity? I love all things academic and honestly no longer concern myself with who does or doesn't appreciate this in me....and, for future reference, down the road there will be BOSSES who don't like you either!!! LOL
Stay focused and do your thing honey.......you job in school IS to get good grades and who knows? I would suggest this experience will serve you very well down the road in the context of tolerating other people's disapproval. I would suggest you are simply being prepared for great things. For the record, here's one teacher that whole heartedly approves of you, my dear.

Perhaps you are trying too hard. You may come on as too needy or too talkative. As a teacher myself, I enjoy the company and questions of my students, but there are some who are more clingy than usual. If your teachers give you the "go away" tone, maybe this is the problem.
Just smile when you turn in your homework; don't spend more than 2 minutes explaining how you did your work or why you don't have it; don't hover around your teacher's desk; say "hello" and "goodbye" with a cheerful expression; don't assume your teachers want to spend 10 minutes listening to everything that happened to your pet hamster a week ago. I'm sure your teachers love you, but they also have other students to think about.

There are so many factors that could be involved in this. I have a student who makes good grades but when he speaks to me he is so abrasive and insulting that I have gotten to the point that I simply walk off. He is gifted academically but lacks the social skills for appropriate interaction with others. He doesn't realize how obnoxious he is and probably wonders why I don't appear to like him. I am just trying to protect both of us from me losing my temper.
I am not suggesting that is the problem with you. I am just saying that the issue could be any number of things. We really need more information before knowing for sure what might be happening with you.

Tell the teacher(s) one at a time that you would like tospeak to them either after school or during a study hall or recess and ask , Why is it that you show hostility towards me. Why is it that you don't like or at least treat me with a nuetral attitude instead of a negative one all the time? Is there something you did to direspect them and draw their ire? Now if they start to get loud and defensive, tell them "whoa,time out. I would like to have my parents here for this meeting and they will be contacting the principle to set it up".Now if the conversation is a normal one, you might be surprised to find out that the teache may become apologetic and talk to you about your concerns. Either way, GOOD LUCK!!!

Psh, why would you want teachers who disrespect you and give you lame excuses to like you? No offense, but it's just plain dumb. You're getting good grades, so I don't think the teachers disliking you will affect your grades much.
But if you want them to like you, maybe you should ignore them when they want to talk to you or need a favor from you. Give them a taste of their own medicine. You gotta fight fire with fire.
And are you sure that they're like this to only you? Maybe the act this way to other students as well, and just not you. But seeing as you have good grades, I wouldn't worry too much.

If you serious ask the principle for a transfer to another class...if they are being mean to you, then it depends on how bad... Younger teachers sometimes are too young to let go of there own needs for social acceptance (being popular and cool) they are not that much older than the kids they teach...this sometimes is a problem but should not be tolerated...if they become verbally abusive though (such as racial or sexist remarks) have them removed, as they should not be training students to begin with.

Why are you concerned? If you are getting good grades you are doing well. I wouldn't worry about it. I think there is a lot more here than you are telling us. What do you think your teachers would say if they responded to your question? Answer that and you have the answer.

You know....just remember...teacher's are first people....they have lives of their own....a home to take care of....children to take care of....including taking them to doctor appointments....sporting events....have to help them with homework....fix dinner every night for them....bathe them....plus make sure they are 100% ready to go to school the next day....prepared....They also have to be 100% prepared to teach their own classroom the next day....
So I am just trying to say....being respectful....friendly....helpful by you yourself being prepared....is not butt kissing....it is about helping a process being positive for both sides of the fence.
You...have no idea how difficult it can be to have classroom after classroom of unmotivated, disrespectful kids....kids that have no appreciation of the time you invest so their day can be successful in the class.....
Soooo....do your teacher a favor....and bring something positive to the classroom....it helps give your teacher a lift to believe that what they are doing makes a difference. Thank you.

show them all the hard work you do to keep your grades up and maybe talk/chat with them. when teachers aren't actually teaching a class you could start up a casual conversation. I do that! being nice/talking actually made me start to like my classes more. i'm not a teachers pettt..andd i do get good grades too. just don't be rude and obnoxious. chatting is good, act friendly and they'll be friendly back. good luck!
