Some of you might remember saying a couple of months ago that I absolutely hated my French teacher ans she was making my school career very difficult and demoralising.
I have finally come to the decision to quit French after a very nasty parents evening last night where she basically said to me and my parents, "your son is going to get an E or a scrape D and has no chance of getting a C" I personally found this an unfair comment, as, although i was stuggling, I did still think that I was capable of getting a C.
Last night was the final straw and im fed up as she fails to seem to be able to give encouragement or anything to boost my moral.

I feel that I am making the right decision as my parents were very pleased with the other 3 subjects and I feel carrying on with this subject will only limit my success in those subjects.

What is everyone elses experience on quitting subjects?
Do you regret it?
Am I making a wise choice? :conf: :rolleyes:

me hasnt quit a subject cos i cant but i think you props did the right thing as you hate her

but if you say you could get a C couldnt of you just ask to move class or can not happen

also is it to late to start a new subject or are you doing your gcse's in may?

Thats the problem Corkie, theres only 1 class of about 10 people, and my school has language college status!!!! :laugh:
so moving class isnt a choice and im doing AS level Corkie so its a lot harder than GCSE - thanks for your idea though :wavey:
I havent actually made the decision yet, but I will sign the forms tomorrow inless i change my mind :rolleyes:

I think I'll carry on to half-term then see, that would be the most sensible thing to do, but to be honest I cant see myself going much further with the subject after then.
Thanks everyone :spin:
