I have like 2-4 hours of homework every night and I'm in grade 10. Is that normal?<br>Plus I need a math tutor, never have been good at it -- I take notes, ask LOTS of questions, I just DON'T get it. Especially those damn word problems. Never liked those. But in every single class, I take notes, I do the work in class, I read the textbooks, I ask questions, and somehow, I still end up with a HUGE amount of homework. -_-<br>I have Math, Social Studies, English, Planning (some stupid class about futures and crap that doesn't help me choose a job WHATSOEVER, the teacher must be like friggen 90 that forgets EVERYTHING), and Art right now. And since math, socials, and english are all every second day, I have them all year. Woohoo. Not.<br><br>I'm so stressed. I don't have time for chores. I get home at four, eat something and relax for an hour, and basically do homework until I can't do it anymore or I have to go to bed. I wake up tired every morning.<br><br>This sucks, maybe I'm just being a baby. ):

  • 2 hours sounds pretty average, with 4 being a little bit harder than normal. <br>Are any other students having trouble with the amount of homework? Have you tried talking to the teachers that give the most work to see if they can give you some extra time? Whenever it gets a little overwhelming with me, I stop trying to be perfect, and that helps. I'll happily take a 80-90% over a 100% on a few assignments if that means I can get a few days of rest. <br><br>Also, I don't get word problems either. I'm great at everything else, but give me a word problem, and it's like I'm trying to read a foreign language.
    I'm done with VP. I'll just be around until I get all my dogs and lines placed in good hands. If you want to contact me, please do so through deviantART.
