- Asking your teacher for help may be difficult, particularly if you dislike your teacher. However, if you approach your teacher with genuine issues and are earnestly seeking help with your homework, he is not likely going to turn you down. Since he is the one who assigned the homework, you can seek help from the direct source. Remember, you are probably not the first student to need help in whichever particular area you're struggling with. The teacher will be able to work with you and help you develop study habits or better understand the assignment so that you can complete it.
- Most schools have message boards where tutors offer their services. Check the message board and look for any tutor specializing in biology. Even better would be to find a tutor who works in the particular field of biology that is giving you trouble.
As an alternative, use an Internet tutor. Tutor.com, for instance, offers biology tutors over the Web; the main advantage to this service is that it is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. - Never underestimate the wealth of knowledge that can be found over the Internet or within a group of people. The Internet has many resources available for you to post questions and to find more information about biology. Cramster.com is one such site.
Another option would be to form a small study group and work in the group to get the assignment done.
