[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are definitely some horrible teachers out there, but in this case there are some parent red flags.  First, how is it that the student doesn't know why he got a D? My B student who hates English can't even get a D.  And if he gets a C, he goes and asks the teacher what he did wrong, and he's not a very outgoing kid.  So if my kid knows why he got a low grade, then why doesn't OP's kid know?  A D is very low, and isn't usually given for work that is turned in on time.  So something is fishy here.  [/quote]

OP here. My kid did ask the teacher that how she can improve. The teacher now very well knows that my child always reaches out to her when she gets a low grade And resubmits her work. Interestingly the teacher doesn’t comment much on the assignment then how will the student know what to correct. I once checked one comment she wrote and it was making no sense. Not just my child many students have the same opinion. [/quote]

With regard to the resubmitted work:

1. Are they assignments that are eligible for resubmission/retake?

2. Is she actually making changes before 
 resubmitting?

3. Does the teacher know your daughter is resubmitting work? Schoology makes it very challenging to see which assignments are resubmitted.

4. Is she reading the teacher's feedback or is she just asking the teacher what she did wrong, without bothering to read the feedback provided?[/quote]
