If he does agree to write you a rec, wouldn't the rec suck anyways? If a teacher's that unwilling he probably knows he can't/won't write you a good rec. Better to go find another teacher.

on the other hand, one of the teachers I know very well at my school was asked (begged in some cases) to write a teacher rec for some of the kids who graduated last year.

Since she had a very low opinion of them, it sort of turned into a letter of UNrecommendation.

so don't complain.

Who else can you get one from?

And why do you think this teacher is refusing?
