Write A Letter To Your Teacher Why You Have Scored Less Marks
Dear Mr. Smith,
I am writing this letter to express my disappointment with my grades in your class. I have always been an average student, but since enrolling in your class, my grades have decreased significantly.
For example, in the previous semester I received an A for every test and assignment. However, during this semester, I feel that I have underperformed and am not receiving the same amount of points as before.
Although this may be a problem for me as a student, it is also a problem for you as a teacher because it indicates that something is wrong with your teaching methods or lesson plan. Perhaps there was an error in the way you explained the material or maybe there are some aspects of the course that were not covered well enough. Whatever the cause may be, please take this opportunity to improve your teaching style so that all of your students can benefit from it.
Dear Teacher,
I am writing this letter to you because I have scored less marks in the recent test. I have tried my best but just not able to score good marks. It is really disappointing for me and I feel very sad that I have failed in the test.
I know that it is not because of my hard work but because of my health problem. I have been suffering from fever and cough for last few days and couldn’t focus on my studies as well as on the exam properly. It is really hard for me to keep myself calm while studying or doing anything else at home during these days.
I hope that you will understand my situation and help me sort out this problem so that next time I can perform better than what I did during this test.
Dear Teacher,
I have scored less marks in the examination. I am very sorry for that. I have tried my best but still I could not score high marks. This is due to some reasons:
1) I was not able to study well because of the load of my other subjects.
2) When we were studying in class, there were many distractions which made it difficult for me to concentrate on my studies.
3) My parents did not allow me to take any extra classes or attend tuition classes after school hours. Therefore, I cannot improve myself more than this level in this subject.
Dear Teacher,
I’m writing to you to explain why I’ve scored less marks than I’d like in the recent exam.
I had a very rough time during the exam. Firstly, there was a lot of noise outside the room which made it difficult for me to concentrate on the test. Then my pencil went blunt and I couldn’t apply enough pressure to write clearly. Finally, I got a cramp in my hand and had to stop writing for a few minutes.
All this meant that I didn’t have time to answer all the questions, so of course my score was lower than it could have been otherwise. But that’s not because I don’t understand what you’ve taught us—it’s just that those things interfered with my ability to do well. Please don’t punish me for something beyond my control!
Dear Ms. Teacher,
I am writing to you because I have scored less marks in the recent examination. I know that you are very disappointed and upset with me. But I was not able to do well in the exam due to some personal problems.
Firstly, my father is suffering from cancer and he needs to undergo chemotherapy sessions. Secondly, my mother has gone out of station for business purpose and she is not coming back until next week. So both my parents are not at home until next week, so I am alone looking after my younger brother who is just four years old.
Due to this situation, I could not study properly for the exam and therefore did poorly in the exam. Now I request you not to take any action against me as we are facing difficult circumstances at home and unable to focus on studies properly due to lack of attention from our parents. Please accept my apology for this situation and allow me another chance to prove myself worthy by scoring good marks in next exam.
Dear Teacher,
I am writing to you because I have scored less marks in my last term examination. I know that you are not happy with my performance and neither am I. So, here is what happened –
I was very busy with my studies and preparing for the examination. However, due to some unforeseen circumstances, I was unable to attend classes regularly. It is because of this reason that I could not score well in the exam.
Dear Teacher,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your efforts in teaching us. I am sorry for my poor results in the exam. I think that I did not study enough for the exam and this is the reason why I have scored less marks.
But I want to tell you that I will try my best to improve my grades in the next exams.
Thank You!
Dear Teacher,
I am writing to you to explain why I scored less marks in my recent exams. I believe it is because of my poor preparation for the exams. I had a very busy schedule during the month of May and could not prepare well for the exams. This has resulted in low scores for me.
I would like to request you to reconsider my case and award me a better score in the upcoming semester so that it does not affect my overall grade point average.
Dear Teacher,
I am writing this letter to you because I am not satisfied with my marks. I scored less marks than the rest of my class. I have worked very hard but still I couldn’t score good grade. I am disappointed with myself as well. The reason behind it is lack of time management skills, lack of concentration and laziness.
The reason behind lack of concentration is that whenever I sit down to study, something or the other comes into my mind and then I start thinking about it and it becomes difficult for me to concentrate on my studies. It happens because of my daydreaming habit which needs to be controlled if we want to achieve success in our lives.
Laziness can also be a cause behind this scenario because when we are lazy, we tend to give up easily which results in less marks scored by us. We need to overcome this laziness by implementing some strategies like taking breaks while studying or reading a novel while studying etc. so that our minds don’t get bored and we can focus on our studies more efficiently.
Thanks, [name].
Dear Teacher,
I have been a student of yours for the past few years. I am writing this letter to you because I would like to tell you why I have scored less marks in my last exams.
First of all, the reason behind that is that I was not able to concentrate on my studies due to the upcoming examinations. Secondly, it was not possible for me to make notes at home because my parents were very busy in their work and they could not give any time to me. Thirdly, there was some problem with my eyesight which made it difficult for me to read and write properly. And finally, there were many other reasons as well but these were the main ones.
I hope that now you will understand why I have scored less marks in my last exams and henceforth you will give me more time at home so that next time when exams come up again then I will be able to perform better than before.
Dear Teacher,
I am writing this letter to explain why I have scored less marks.
The reason for my low score is that I have been busy in other activities and I have not been able to devote time to my studies.
I will try my best to improve my performance in the coming days so that I can score more marks next time.
Dear Mr. Smith,
I am writing to you because I have scored low marks in the English test. It was not my fault. The question paper was very difficult and all the questions were very difficult to answer. Even the students who had good knowledge of English could not score good marks in this test. Some of the questions were very difficult to answer. Therefore, I request you to consider my request for re-evaluation of my paper. I hope that you will consider my request favorably.
Dear Sir/Ma’am,
I am writing this letter to you to explain why I have scored less marks than usual.
This term has been very difficult for me, both academically and personally. There have been many changes in my family situation which has made it difficult to focus on my work. I have had to take care of my younger brother and sister more often than normal. This has meant that I could not study as much as I would like and has resulted in a drop in my grades.
It is important that you understand that these are not excuses for bad behavior or poor performance. Rather, they are reasons why I have been unable to perform at my usual level of excellence. I hope that you will be able to take this into account when considering whether or not to punish me for failing in any way during this term’s exams.
Dear Teacher,
I have been studying well in the class. But I am not able to score high marks in the exam. I think it is because of my poor memory power. I want to know what should I do for improving my memory power? Please suggest me some tips for improving my memory power.
Dear Teacher,
I am writing this letter to you to inform you that I have scored less marks in this exam. This is not because I was not able to do the work or give my best. It is because of some issues that I faced in the past few days. Firstly, my father had an accident and he was hospitalized for almost a week. Secondly, my mother was also hospitalized due to another reason. So I could not study as much as I would have liked to because I had to take care of them both. Thirdly, we had power cuts at home because of which we could not watch television or play games on our computers. These are the reasons why I could not score better marks than before and hope you will understand this situation.
Thank you for understanding!
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing this letter to you in order to explain why I have scored less marks on my recent exams.
I would like to start with my first exam, which was a maths test. During this test, I found that the questions were very difficult and had not been covered in class. I also feel that this test was unfair because it gave me no time to think about the answers.
For my second test, it was a vocabulary test. This test was also very difficult because there were many words that I did not know and did not understand the meaning of. This made me feel insecure about myself and my ability to learn new things.
My third exam was a science quiz and it was very interesting but also very challenging for me as it required me to use my knowledge in order to answer the questions correctly. The problem was that some of these questions required more than just knowledge; they required reasoning skills as well which I do not have yet!
