Answer 1

Sounds to me that you might be anemic so go to your doctor and tell him/her what you said here about loss of concentration and being tired.Make sure that your eating habits improve and take vitamins.
You may also have a problem with comprehension. That, you can talk to you teacher about and perhaps she can suggest ways to help you. This is a very common problem especially with students. Good luck and I'm sure you will succeed.

Answer 2

You need to get more sleep than you are getting now. At least 8 hours a night. The energy drinks are bad for you. They give you a caffeine high and then you get a low. Not good. Proper rest, eat breakfast before school, and focus. Tell the teacher about your problem. The teacher may give you some suggestions. One would be to take good notes so you don't have to remember it..But remember, sleep and no drugs or caffeine..
