Problems and Struggles

Every student has their own share of problems and different kind of problems. Some students may have academic issues while others may have emotional problems. Academic problems that i see everyday are the inability to learn as fast as the teacher is teaching. Because many students are intimidated by their teachers, they do not ask for help and can fall behind in their classes. Another academic related issue is that a lot of parents do not become involved in their student's life at school. Because of this, kids do not find the great importance of excelling in school and this causes their bad grades. On the other extreme, there are students who strive to do well in school to better their circumstances and to live a better life than what their parents did. Although motivation can be good, having a lot of pressure to do well can also have its negative effects. For example, students become willing to do anything for the higher grade. Some typical emotional problems are relationships with the opposite sex, friends, and with family. Every person has their own drama and problems and the excessive drama can come between a student's school work. These are some of the troubles and struggles Bell High students have.
