how to tell a teacher that u put a lot of effort in but not sound too cliche (I failed the class but she's nice so I think she'll pass me with a c-,) I worked so hard and still failed :. )

I am sorry ma'am I have let your expectations down. I had tried my best to perform great in this exam but I did not reach the expected grades. I once again apologize for not scoring good and I promise that I will try to improve the next time.

HOPE IT HELPS :)

PLEASE MARK IT THE BRAINLIEST!

Dear "so and so",

I am very sorry that I did not do well in taking the exam. I studied very hard, to try and pass this exam. If you would please let me re-take this exam, I would be appreciative. I apologize for not scoring high, thanks again.

                              With Respect,

                               "Your name"

Explanation:

Your audience would be an adult, so this would be respectful, yet not too formal. cause then they would think your a goody two shoes. and think that your trying to flatter them with your impeccable speech capabilities.
