It sounds like you’re in a tough situation! First, try talking to her openly about how much her grade matters and how it’s affecting her future. You could ask her how she feels about math and what challenges she’s facing. Sometimes, understanding the root of the issue can help.
Encourage her to reach out to her teacher for extra help or tutoring options. You could also offer to study together or help her with any specific topics she struggles with. Sometimes having a study buddy can make a big difference!
Lastly, remind her that it’s never too late to turn things around, and she has support from friends like you who care about her success. Good luck!
