Dear Erika

I’m sorry to hear you are having problems in math.

I would like to offer you advice that would help you do better in math.

Which would be:

1. Study harder at home

2. Ask teachers and students for help

3. Ask teacher for extra work to practice and for guidance

4. Don’t give up on your education

5. You made it this far, so don’t waste your time and drop out

6. Think about your younger siblings and children in the future ,so they can have someone to look up to in a positive way.

Sincerely

Marcus

Erika, a 12th grader, isn’t good at math and, as a result, is in an
algebra class with all freshmen.

The freshmen are smarter and do better in the class, which makes her feel stupid. She hates math and doesn’t understand why she has to take it. Her grades aren’t good enough for college anyway, so she’s not planning on going. She already has a job working as a waitress after school and doesn’t think she’s smart enough to do anything else. So, she figures she should just drop out now.
