this sounds stupid but the reason why is because i wasn't that used to reading filipino (i was always used to english), but uhh my filipino teacher used my ranking (with honors) last school year just to like discourage me or something
yes criticizing or telling a student they did something wrong in a subject like is okay, pushing them or motivating them is also okay, but if you use a students rank and threaten said student to get a low grade? that is not okay.
also i think i didn't word the "pushing students" reply right, but if you support or keep a student motivated, as long as you don't constantly pressure them or push too hard on them, it's fine in my opinion.
one more day...
to procrastinate :DD
