Two Kinds In One Tutor
why me?
"star can you come up to my desk please?" ms.lanson asked in a tone that sounded like she was just in a completely bad mood and she just woke up. she didnt think the class knew that she was sleeping with that book in front of her face. it was clearly obvious considering the fact that one, her head was on her desk and 2, the book was upside down. how could a person so dumb become a teacher? i walked up to her desk in drowsy manner because it was monday and i was in school. everything just bothered me. "yes ms.lanson?" i asked as a put on a fake smile so she wouldnt give me a long lecture about "manners" and "respecting my elders". "as you must know star, you math grades are extremely low. your failing this class with a 50%" she said not even looking at me. more focused on the cover of the romance novel she was pretending to read. it had a picture of fabio or some other old dude. whatever. "what do u expect me to do about it. im clearly not good at math so why do u keep trying to pressure me with all these stupid study sessions and what not. im stupid, cant do anything about that" "your not stupid. stop selling your self short. im done trying to give u study sessions. i have a different way to get u to pass...." i sighed and thought "sweet baby jesus, just give it up already" i spoke aloud and said "yay another remedy that supposably get me to pass but eventually fails" i said in a sarcastic tone just so i can get her to actually pay attention to me. she looked up at me then said "watch your tone young lady-" i cut her off then said "whoa, young lady? who are u my mom?" she sighed and said "listen, there is no point fighting with you. your attitude has gotten worse as the year has extended. this time it will be different. i got u a tutor.." my eyes almost came out of my head when she said the word tutor. a tutor to me is like a student trying to show off their knowledge by making the less smarter students feel dumb. "WHAT?!? i dont need a tutor. i dont need anyone to tell me or to make me feel stupid. i know that already on my own. i rather fail." she raised her voice in a whisper "star, like i said im done arguing with u. your gonna have a tutor weather u like it or not." she turned her head to face a nerdy kid with glasses then she said "marcel can you come over here please" she said with an actual genuine smile. he came over then met my eyes and smiled. i gave him a fake smile then thought "you've gotta be kidding me.." he fixed his glasses then said "how may i help u ms.lanson?" he said in the most nerdy and polite way. she smiled then said "i need you to tutor my most unteachable and unapproachable students" i rolled my eyes at her long and not so offending words. marcel looked back at me and smiled then said "she doesnt look that unapproachable, i would be delighted to tutor her" the bell to leave rings and i didnt have to think twice before i was ready to blitz out of that room. before i even got the chance to, marcel tapped my shoulder gently like he was afraid to even touch me. i turned around to face him then he stuttered across words as he said "umm w-when would y-you uh like the tutoring to happen. im eh im available anytime." "i bet u are" i thought. "umm, you can come over my house in like an hour or so" i wrote my address and number on his arm and left. im stuck with a nerd until i can get my grades up...which is like forever ugh....
