Remember if you are working a problem and do not understand the given answer (i.e. a solution was provided and don't understand how that is the correct answer) or you have no idea how to even start dont worry!
Follow these steps:
- Take a picture of your problem and any work you have done so far and change it to a pdf (there are a lot of free apps that do this).
- Write me a little note on the side of your page or type it in the email -- for example Ms Malone did I work this right? Or Ms. Malone I have no idea what to do next. etc.
- Email me this information to either [email protected] or [email protected] AND IN THE SUBJECT LINE TYPE: Relay Student Question
- Wait at least 24 hours. I will probably be able to respond within a couple of hours, but sometimes my schedule is tight so give me 24 hours maximum and if I havent responded, then I forgot and follow up with another e-mail reminding me that you are still waiting.
