We all have our favorite teachers——those who seem truly interested and treat us kindly. But what about teachers we don’t know or even don’t like much?

You can do lots of things to get a good connection with your teachers. First, do the right things: show up for class on time, with all assignments completed. Be active, be respectful, and ask questions you can’t solve by yourself.

Show an interest in the subjects. Obviously, your teachers are really interested in their subjects or they wouldn’t have decided to teach them! Showing the teachers that you care——even if you’re not a math genius or fluent in English——sends the message that you are a good student.

You can also plan a private conference during a teacher’s free period. Use this time to get extra help, ask questions, or talk about your progress in class. You may be surprised to learn that your teacher is a bit more relaxed one-on-one than when talking in front of the whole class.

Here are some things to avoid when you are trying to build a good relationship with your teachers:

Not being sincere. Teachers sense it when your only goal is to get special treatment, a college reference, or a job chance.

Trying to be teachers’ pet. Your behavior will come off as insincere and your classmates may start to resent you.

Giving expensive gifts. It’s OK to offer some kind of gift to show your appreciation to teachers if they’ve been helpful to you. But giving expensive things could send the wrong message, and a teacher is usually not allowed to accept anything expensive.
