My old college were threatening to chuck me out, so I dropped out, and when I realised it was the biggest mistake I went back to try and get in, but they said no, and their only excuse was that I would start on a "negative level" so when I went back to try and convince one of the teachers who I mainly had a problem with, she said she'd shoot me if she had a chance in a serious tone, while I was trying to apologise! And she was just generally acting like a major b***h and made me feel really guilty when she told me she would go home on her Friday evenning and weekends and think about what she was doing with me. I mean, I'm not blaming her for my behaviour, but she totally acted like my friend instead of my teacher, and even said "we could be buddies after your exams" She let me come in more than 20 mins late on more than several occasions and even let me go home while I was a bit tipsy in school and said "I'll bloody kill you if you tell anyone" (Not making this up) She didn't grass me or anything, so obviously I'm gonna take advantage of her right, I mean, I am a kid for goodness sake!But now I'm in another college, and I can't help but feel one or two of my teachers don't like me much, and I seriously don't want to end up how I was with my old teachers in my former college. How do I change the error of my ways? I desperately need to get good grades as I want to go to uni next year, I'm doing 3 intensive A levels in one year, so I obviously need to be in the teachers good books. Any advice? Shall i go back to my old college and mess up my old teachers car to give me some kind of closure?

 Hi!
You want to get good grades! To get good grades it takes a great deal of hard work!You really need to get your head down and you might have to do it soon if you really want good grades. The best way to get in your teachers good books is to stop messing around in lessons and sit down, listen to what the teachers have to say and then after every lesson when every one goes say thanks...also ask if there is any exstra work you can do to get good credit . it will give you a good reputation with your teachers. They will know that you really want to pass your grades.
good luck
and also study hard very hard, make your self a time table to stick to.

 Ok, to get on the good side of your teachers and get good grades dont resort to what some girls do because thats degrading. what you do is, dont be loud or to energetic, arrive on time for classes and always be prepared, revise and repeat things over in your head. try not to get drunk in colledge or the night before an exam. Remember to ask questions, Why, how, what, where, when and who. and god no, dont mess up an ex teachers car for closure, it wont look too good in a job interview if you have a bit of a criminal record such as vandalism. hope you achieve and find whatever it is your looking for. all the best. Faith.
