Teachers only please :) how would you react to this wot would u want ur student to do?

Question

In february I was upset about something that happened and my teacher picked up on it basically she asked if i was ok and i said yer i wanted to talk to her but everytime she asked if i was ok i froze and sed i was fine which was a lie but i didnt know how to tell her what was rong and also i didnt want to say it infront of everyone. she said i could go and talk to her but i didnt. I should have talked to her as i regret it now, my friend said i should go talk to her but its JULY now and she'll proberbly think why have you come to talk to me now. She was really nice to me and i feel bad that i didnt go to talk to her but i want to talk to her for other reasons to. Basically i want to know what you would do :

1. Is it too late to talk to her now?

2. Should i talk to her she was nice at the time but she sort of picks on me now and i dont know whether its cos shes annoyed because i didnt tell her what was wrong or whether shes trying to be horrible so i get upset and tell her

thanks

Answer 1

If she is still your teacher I think it would be a good idea to talk to her.

Answer 2

Yes, it's perfectly fine to talk to her.  Most teachers go into the profession because they want to see their students develop both academically and personally.  It's not too late.

Answer 3

If you trust her and like here, talk to her. No matter how long after the event.

Answer 4

1. Not too late- if she offered a listening ear then, she is probably sensitive to the fact that you might need some support.  I doubt that would just disappear in a few months. When I have had students come to me in similar situations, I have been aware that they may have wanted to talk before but weren't able to for whatever reason. I didn't hold it against them.  I think that's true for a lot of teachers.

2.  What do you mean she's picking on you? If she was nice before, I am sure she would be nice again in listening to you if you asked for her time.  If you wish you had talked to her, then listen to your instincts.
