Is it ok if i stand up to my teacher?

I want to stand up to my teacher, because i have a feeling that she said something that was incorrect to me. "that my HW was due on friday" and i didnt turn it in on the right date so i have can turn it in 2 weeks after it is due, but i have to use something called a Late Work Coupon. Can i stand up to her id she tells me that it wasnt due on friday and she never said that or " You should have just turned it in on the right date" What should i do?Is it ok if i stand up to my teacher?
As a teacher, I always tell my students to stand up if they think I'm wrong. However, there is a right way to do it and a wrong way. If you are old enough to be asking this on line, it is best not to approach the teacher in a confrontive, competitive way. And that goes not just for situations with teachers, but conflicts with others in general.



When dealing with someone in authority, tell the person you'd like to meet and ask when a convenient time would be for that person. If asked why, just say something like - "I need to ask you something and I don't think it would be appropriate in front of others." When the teacher finds out what it is, she or he will appreciate your not challenging them in public.



Then when you meet, nicely explain your point of view. If you are friendly and approach it as a misunderstanding, your teacher will very likely be receptive to your point and be willing to work with you on a solution. By the way - it's always good to go in with clear idea about how you want to change the situation. But if you don't know exactly what you want, you can always ask the teacher what she or he thinks might be a fair way to solve your disagreement.



The teacher may or may not budge (it depends on the situation), but it shows you are willing to work with the teacher, without causing unnecessary conflict.



To your P.S.

It sounds as if the teacher thinks you are not listening to her when she is making a point. Something can happen in book - but what happens may not be what is happening - in other words, people can take actions, such as leaving to deal with something. But are they leaving to run away from something - or to go toward something else?



Don't get in a competition with her. Be willing to show her you are willing to learn, even if you don't agree. And if she is mean - OK, she is. Some people are nicer than others - we have to deal with all kinds in life. It's just a fact. But you'll win nothing by getting in a power struggle in your situation.



A good teacher will respect you if you approach her in the way mentioned above.
put yourself in her shoes. she may not budge, but she will remember an honest, cool-headed, and rational plea on what you firmly believe was said. Also, it's going to depend on your past performance. Be ready for the consequences and pat yourself on the back for acting like an adult, that will mean more in the future than a checkmark in the teacher's grade book for late homework.Is it ok if i stand up to my teacher?
If you were the only one that didn't turn it in..then maybe you need to pay attention more.
No.



Suck it up. Stand up to her, and get in trouble. Worst case scenario, punishment. Best csae scenario, she does nothing but maybe embarrass you in front of classmates.



Sorry babe. Sux, I know.
You can't stand up to her with an attitude, you need to think about what you want to say and come to her with a firm argument as to why you believe she didn't say that, maybe ask for a compromise, instead of insisting she admit she was wrong.
Whatever you decide to say, remember to be RESPECTFUL. I don't know how many times I have seen a teacher want to rule in the student's favor, but change their mind because the student was being a total butthead about it.
This is a difficult one,kind of depends on the teacher.If you REALLY are sure about your position then you should VERY politely tell her/him how you perceive this situation.Be prepared not to win the discussion ( keep it a discussion not an argument.) and hand in the home work with in the new time frame.

Teachers are rarely wrong about assignment due dates but they are human (REALLY) and make mistakes.
well you can stand up to her, but I dont know wat good it will do. Maybe you werent there wen she told everyone the date, so jsut try talking to her about ur little misunderstanding
Students who are disrespectful to me go on my $hitlist. If the majority of your classmates turned it in on time, then you misinterpreted the due date. Does she write the assignments on the board? If not, give her an apology for the late work and tell her that you don't want this to happen again and it would really help you if she would write the assignments on the board each day.
