my Teacher deliberately failed me.?

Question

OK i am furious my teacher has just failed me for no reason.
ok this quater i had a surgery and had several missing tests and he told the class that ALL assignments had to be turned it a week b4 the end of the semester. at least a a week to a week and a half prior to the deadline i had taken time out of my own day to go and take these test's. My teacher didnt even let me take them in his class i had to go at 4 in the morning to the Resource department to take them which i did.
and he NEVER corrected them. and now i have an F on my transcript because of him.
im wondering what i can do about this.. i am going to send him this email.
To Mr. Coker,

Hey, this is Casey Giles and i was just on infinity campus and noticed that you have put an undeserved "F" on my report card which was not from mistakes on my part.

the following assignments are down as missing which I have done. as well as a few have turned in with the rest of the class. such as the Human characteristics Lab

Quiz 5: Ch8 Photosynthesis
Test Ch7 Cell Theory.
and Quiz 2 Cell parts have all been completed and at least a week prior to your deadline.
i am very disappointed in how you have chosen to deliberately fail me.
now i am missing a credit which could have played a big part in my future.
Thanks...


ps the Deadline for grades has already passed

Answer 1

No, sorry, teachers don't deliberately fail a student, but something or some kind of history between you and the teacher may cause you to be scrutinized heavily.

Answer 2

Casey had you talked this over with your teacher(s)?

And if by chance you did not, you should be able to

talk to your teacher(s), explain the situation you are going through and

ask for a chance to get caught up.

If you feel you are not being understood or that this school is not acting in

your best interest ( because, You have being trying ) to get your education,

then You look for a school in your area

that would work with you on getting your education.



So Casey, my advise to you is this...don't get caught up in the emotional stuff right now.

Over the Christmas holidays,

take the time to think about what you really want out of Casey's life.

Do you want to be a bi-stander?

Or do you want to play the game?

Casey, what do you love most of all?

What are you passionate about?

Do you like working with music, vehicle's, animals....

How can you incorporate that love into a positive that will employ you?

Please don't think that the teachers are out to get you.

They're just doing their jobs Casey, just like you are living your life.

For some reason, for now, your worlds are not on the some page.

I hope you understand.

They are only teachers and the messengers of news that you rather not hear.

Be the man that You see yourself as wanting to be.

This is heavy information, I get that, but make no mistake...

This is Your life and You are in charge of it, right?

What could you have done differently. You couldn't have. Not with all the stuff that was going on in your life, Right.

You know what happened to cause this delay in your education.

You're a smart man Casey, and I don't doubt that you'll get the education you need very soon.

Have patients. You will see in time You'll have that opportunity to do those tests and move forward.

Take what you know (that's Yourself) to change with in. What's your purpose in life?

Find the time, soon after Christmas to turn your study time into full-time studies.

You should be able to get back to school at a more full-time compatibility, so that you can work towards your diploma and then onto what you can see yourself doing that employs you a good living.

Hopefully something positively enjoyable.

Something that you love doing.



If I was you, but I'm not, I would chat it up with those that are "the teachers at the school you're going to" and see what where you can go from here. It's only been a few months that were not so good for you

Right now over Christmas isn't the time you want to focus so much about that stuff.

Yes you've got it on your mind however

You have things to do and places to head too, people and family to caught up with.

Dear Casey, It's Christmas, let your heart soften and enjoy the child within you.





Merry Christmas big guy and may all your wishes come true.

From my heart to yours, all the best.

Answer 3

First, don't fret about grade deadlines. Schools have a means to correct mistakes and update transcripts.

Secondly, such an e-mail to the instructor will adversely affect what you wish to accomplish.

Third, cool off before taking action #4.

Four, Ask the instructor for a short appointment at his selected time, and go over that which contributed to the grade. Note what is missing from his records and document their existence.



Tip: ALWAYS photocopy assignments/reports/papers.

Answer 4

Don't start by accusing him of screwing you over. Start by asking him if he received the tests you took at the resource center - tell him the dates you took them, and tell him you were under the impression that everything you took by those dates would be counted. The email you wrote here is too confrontational - don't accuse him of 'deliberately failing you', ask him why your exams weren't graded.

Answer 5

Don't contact the teacher with that e-mail. Tell him you are confused about why you got an F and tell him that you did all the work but didn't get grades on anything and you are wondering if there was a mistake made. It's possible that he didn't get the tests from the resource center so he assumed you didn't take them. Act as if it's a mistake at first. If you don't get a response talk to the dean of students.

Answer 6

Its probably true my math teacher fails me all the time and every other student passes. He most likely just enjoys failing you, your not alone.

Answer 7

Don't send the email. He will just think of a good excuse.



It actually happened to me . My teacher was always failing me and giving me the lowest grades in the class. In my Mock exam I got grade F and I was furious - and this is what I did: -

(btw, my parents were not involved. High School, they do take note if your approach is Professional)



Take the professional approach - complain direct to the Head of Year. Make an appointment with him and talk to him about this teacher who is always failing you. You have nothing to lose.

The HoY will put this in his record about the teacher and will see the teacher himself. (insist he sees the teacher).



When it came to the real exams, I passed with the highest grade and proved the teacher wrong.

Answer 8

Sorry, but this is a very poor approach, which is almost certain to offend the professor. You are starting out by accusing him of being unfair. While you may feel that way, you aren't doing yourself any favors by saying that to him. I would, instead, write the following:



Dear Professor Coker [note that if you are in college, calling an instructor Mr. is an insult unless he has asked you to do so, and NEVER say "Hey" to a professor in writing!],



I just received my grade for your class, and I am confused. Prior to the final exam, I had a grade of X in your class. I know that you required us to have all assignments in before the end of the semester, and because my impending surgery (about which I had informed you), I went to the Resource Department on (Y date at 4 a.m.) to take the remaining tests (Quizzes 2 & 5 and the test on Chapter 7). I notice that those tests were never corrected. Did you ever receive them from the Resource Department? I also noticed that I was not given credit for several assignments which I turned in on time, along with the rest of the class.



I was very upset to see an "F" on my report card, as I cannot imagine that, having done all of the work, this was the grade that I earned. I would like to discuss this with you, as it is affecting my academic future. Could you please check on those assignments and let me know what the result is?



Thank you very much for your attention to this matter,



Casey Giles



I do want to point out a couple of things to you. While the surgery was not your fault, you were the one creating the disruption to the schedule. Most professors would not allow you to take an exam during the class period. Making you take it at the Resource Department was an appropriate solution, and I'm sure it wasn't HIS idea that you take it at 4 a.m.! Also, it is possible (even likely) that the problem lies not with the professor, but with the Resource Department, which failed to deliver the papers to him as they should have after you finished your assignments. Don't be so quick to assume that your professor was being mean and vindictive. He was just likely copying grades from his spreadsheet, and yours weren't there. If there are more than a few people in your class, he probably didn't even associate your name with the grade in his mind. And even if you KNOW that he was being mean and vindictive, you should NEVER accuse anyone like that. It just makes them defensive.



By the way, even if the deadline for grades has passed, they can always be changed if they were calculated incorrectly (at most schools I've worked at or attended, professors couldn't change their minds about grades, but if they added the numbers wrong, or left out assignments, the grades could change for several weeks into the next semester, at least.

Answer 9

OH teachers gripe my @*(@&$(!!



get your PARENTS to deal with this, schools ALWAYS ignore the students.

THey don't want their wrongdoings to be known.

What you do is write a letter stating EVERYTHING that has happened. Address it to the teacher, and cc the principal and superintendent. Put cc at the bottom of letter so the teacher will know you sent letters to them.



Try to keep your emotions out of the letter,state only the facts. emotions gets them defensive and they will retaliate.



In the letter state that you want a copy of ALL the papers that you turned in. They can't say that you DIDN"T turn them in. State that you are requesting them under FERPA law and if they don't supply them you will file FERPA complaint.



Also state that you are requesting your grades to reflect the missing grades.

Answer 10

If you learned proper grammar & spelling, perhaps your teacher would not have failed you!



before NOT b4!

Answer 11
