In addition to what others say:
-
For a week, do some documentation. Write down what she does in the class and how much time. “Told to open to page 347 and review conjugation. Told to do exercises at end of section. Did not go over answers”. Note when you got grades returned and if they were correct.
-
Talk to the head of the Foreign Languages Department.
Tell them that you teacher doesn’t put grades in in a timely manner (give example), has incorrectly entered the grades on more than one occasion (give examples). Also that you are given assignments from the textbook but are not getting any lecturing/teaching. Say that you do the homework, but really don’t feel like you are getting good instruction. Go over how the class went for the last week. Ask if the Dept head could observe the class. If the class is actually taught when the Dept head is there, then you go back and say “as you may have noticed, the teacher taught the class in a different manner when you were there and it was much more effective. Could you indicate to her that she should be teaching like this all the time.”?
- Also, does the teacher have “office/help hours”? If so, go to them. Whatever you are supposed to have been working on ask if she could go over. that. If she doesn’t have help hours or doesn’t teach, then tell the head of the department. If the hours are not convenient, still suck it up and go to at least one to see if she will help.
