Bad Math Teacher
December 6, 2023
“These lines are parallel,” my math teacher said, pointing to a pair of perpendicular lines. Since I was taking an advanced math class, I knew I had to do well, but how? Confusion constantly filled every student in that class. If our teacher had no understanding of geometry, how would we? My classmates had given up, but I refused to. Determined to prevail, I studied as much as possible, learning every theorem and every concept. In the end, I succeeded. That teacher was terrible, but I was able to prevail through my own determination and hard work.

This story is about my 8th grade geometry experience. I wanted to describe my struggles and what I learned in a short story. Despite having a terrible teacher, I am fortunate to have learned lessons that continue to be useful.
