[quote=Anonymous]Some teachers just aren’t good. There is one in my department- it’s horrific she is allowed to “teach.” Terrible for the kids. Then there’s also some teachers who are good but going through medical stuff or family stuff and having a bad year. There’s no way to know but the reality is we are halfway through the year so you’re kind of stuck at this point. Nothing will happen to the teacher either way. You could get a tutor but make sure they’re a former English teacher if you do because very few tutors are skilled at teaching writing . It is one of the most difficult skills to actually teach and assess. For your part, 30 minutes of NO SCREEN reading every single night would be a great thing to enforce at home. Even better if you’re reading the book and discussing it with him. [/quote]
