I do very little hand-raising, because I like my answers to be not only correct but articulate. I’m guessing some teachers assume I’m stupid or undermotivated until we start turning in written work. I can’t stand being ignored, though-- sometimes I’ll ask a question deliberately designed to make me look insightful, creative, bold, even if I already know the answer to said question. I’m weird.

I usually get on pretty well with English teachers. I give them random writings to critique and chat about books with them. Math teachers probably think I’m hardworking but untalented because I’m exceptionally quiet and get mid-A’s, and I always appear to be paying attention in class, taking copious notes (or pretending to do so). Unless they catch on that I’ve memorized some 100 digits of pi. And then they think I’m just weird.
