I’ll start this by saying that I’m awful at math or any math related class. Because of this, all my life teachers would pick on me. I was starting to have enough of this shit.
In my first year uni I had this accounting class that I was failing miserably. My professor always picked on me to answer questions and solve problems. We even had an argument in class.
After that point she started to give me extra time on assignments. Allowed me to do my tests at home as opposed to in class with everyone. She would even sneak me answers from time to time.
During a short break from school I was jogging around my community when I saw her. I stopped to talk and found out that she and her husband lived basically 5 mins from me. She told me that she isn’t very busy in the evenings and I can come by for tutoring.
I didn’t want to at first but my parents would be pissed if they found out I was failing. I took her up on the offer and we had some sessions for a few weeks.
