In reply to Do teachers say things just to be nice?, posted by Racer on July 20, 2006, at 23:57:49
Some teaches *might* say things to be nice, but i don't think a teacher would tell you that you were good at a subject if you were not. If she said you were good at it, she meant it. Teachers wouldn't make that stuff up.
You're just gonna have to accept that you're good at math! :)

> My math lecturer said today that I was good at it. I immediately said to myself, "Oh, she's saying that to be nice and make me feel good." That's what I told my therapy group tonight, too. They all kinda looked at one another and laughed, and our T said, "Teachers don't say things like that to be nice."
