I'm taking an online course from a accredited college to round out this semester. After struggling through the first two months (and talking with her in detail), I've come to the realization, this teacher either a) does not want to teach this class or b) does not understand how to teach and online course. I'm not alone; other students have posted concerns of the teachers ability, which she responses quickly and with sarcasim at times. I have decided to withdraw from the class, since this will jepordize my honor role status.
So question, which one (please only answere either #1 or #2) -
#1 - Should I just withdraw from the class quietly or...
#2 - Do I collect all my previous graded work, include all correspondance between the teacher and myself and write a letter to the school explaining this teacher is not capable of teaching an online course...and then withdrawl.
Online Course - Do I drop without comment or tell the school?
# 2
Some instructors that "teach" on line courses do not take them seriously. This not only makes the coursework more difficult that it should be but cheats the student out of an education.
Definitely contact the school and, in a very formal letter, outline your complaints. Try to substantiate your claims with facts and dates and copies of your teachers responses. Finally, politely demand your money back (you won't get it but you will at least get a response and this will lead you down the proper path to file your complaint).
I've had teachers like this both in and out of the classroom and most of the time it would be better if they were not even involved.
