Why do you think he hates you? Has he said or done anything to demonstrate this? If you don't know, you have to find out. You have to speak to him. Maybe he sees great potential in you and doesn't want you to waste it.

There may be students in my class that I don't especially like (hate is very strong), but I try not to show it. A teacher must act professionally.Anyway, I do not dislike the person; I dislike what they do (or don't do) or the way they act.

I'm tougher on those students (but I'm demanding of all my students) because I want to make sure they learn something from my class. That they don't like it is simply too bad. It doesn't make a great deal of difference to me if students hate me or like me, I'm there to educate, not to win a popularity contest.

High school students, in my opinion, spend too much time worrying about whether their teachers like or hate them. I am there to teach and you are there to learn. If I make my class interesting and you enjoy it, that's great. If not, we have to live with it.

By the way, I'm a popular teacher in my school. Every year, students want to transfer into my classes, and students from lower levels than what I teach tell me they're going to be in my class. With me, there are no surprises, you know where you start and where you'll get to, and you know what is expected.

Usually teachers "rag" on a student because the student is 1) disrupting the class, 2) talking when the teacher is talking, 3) doesn't do the work, 4) has a rotten attitude, 5) is an underachiever who has tremendous potential and the teacher has a desire, for some unknown reason, to try and reach that student to help them achieve and make something of themself. Most teachers really want to help... perhaps you should try something novel and have a heart to heart with your teacher... you might be pleasantly surprised!

Sometimes people feel picked on when they are bending the rules and someone isn't putting up with it. For instance, do you stroll in late, not do work, talk during class, generally not paying attention, distracting others in the class, etc? Teachers have to try and teach a big class and one kid being disruptive can derail their train.

Try talking to the teacher in private after class one day and ask if they hate you, I am sure that will surprise them and you will find out what is really going on and can adjust your behavior.

He may (in his own way) be trying to get you to reach your potential. It's easy to ignore a student when you don't care about how they do.

Reflect, is it an 'action-reaction' relationship between the two of you? What you may think is minor, may be something he can't 'brush off' and vice-versa. What would you do if you were the teacher? Try approaching him after class and talk to him as a human being. You may be pleasantly surprised at what you'll find. Don't meet anger/frustration with more of the same. He can't understand you if you don't let him. Once he sees you as more than 'that student sitting in row 4 during 3rd period', you may make a breakthrough.

Remember, teachers (as hard as we try not to) bring into the classroom the same daily baggage that the student does. Don't make it confrontational. Try to connect.

interior the U. S. we've had approximately 2 many years of political correctness and this nonsense the place all pupils are meant to be progressed no count if or no longer they might do the artwork or no longer. hence, the extensive explosion in inner maximum colleges the place mothers and dads can discover out if their infant is being knowledgeable or in basic terms made to experience stable at in spite of point, like a by no ability ending daycare. At around the junior 365 days of high school they start to ask your self how the device could have failed their infant via fact they by no ability discovered something and have dim possibilities for college, the place you're meant to bypass classes, or technical preparation the place math skills ought to be important. the whole concept that scholars and their mothers and dads take a seat around thinking if the instructor hates them possibly stems from the instructor watching for some form of progression and artwork. The questioner has no command spelling or grammar and thinks that possibly the instructor hate him/her. My wager is the instructor is making an attempt to get you to study some thing and you're no longer fascinated, in basic terms in tender feely emotions and heat fuzzy sayings. Get off your butt and a minimum of study to spell. God i wish you're no longer in intense college.

I certainly hope your teacher doesn't hate you.
Ask yourself if she/he treats you any differently than other students in class. If that's the case, try to figure out what is going on. Why would your teacher pick you out? If you are the only one, it might be your behavior. Take a good look at yourself. If he treats others the same way, what do you have in common with them?

You may just have to ask him. "Mr. Jonesmith, it seems to me you don't like me. Why is that?" It might just be that the teacher has to take a good look at himself too and your question might be what causes him to do that.

If all else fails, go to the administration with your complaint. Your parents can ask for (demand) a transfer.

Have you ever asked yourself if you hate your teacher?

Do you follow the teacher's instructions? Do you talk when you are not supposed to? Do you pay attention in class? When you don't do those things, the teachers ask themselves why do the students hate me.

The best way to get the teachers to "not hate" you is to follow their instructions, not talk, and pay attention.

Just follow the class rules and you will be amazed at how things turn around.

1) Make sure you are obeying the class rules.
2) Schedule a short meeting with him, and make "I" statements: "I feel concerned about your class because I feel you notice me more than other students, in a negative way. Am I perceiving this correctly? If so, what is going on?"
3) If that doesn't help, have a meeting with him plus a parent or the principal with you, & ask the same question.

He probably doesn't hate you. In fact he shouldn't even have a opinion on you other than you are s/he's student.
Try talking to them.

"I feel as tho you have a negative view upon me.What can I do to change that?"

If it still is a problem and that bad talk to the principle or v.p

If it really is that bad, talk to the head of department of the head of the school. Teachers aren't supposed to do this!
