Re: changing teachers

Happens more frequently than suspected.
Talk to guidance counselor or dean about obtaining a new teacher, try to get monetary funds transfered to offset new teacher, and hope that one you mesh with is available in the area.

Of course, perhaps first step is to have open discussion with present teacher....
but, if it is a personality conflict, a method of teaching that involves a style you dislike (British open sound vs. focused, or some other major difference) then perhaps a change is warranted.

Colleges have realized that students are not just pupils....they are consumers of a product, and they have to accept that if the product is not up to snuff, they must adapt. This approach might not always result in better education, but it is one that sells, for better or worse.
