I don't know if anything my teachers or school could have done to make my experience better.
My problems were at home. I excelled at work in school, my natural intelligence, voracious reading habit and willingness to work hard in school hours were the only thing that helped me pass or even excel.
My home life was chaotic and even obstructive, with my parents defying advice given by my teachers regarding what I could be doing academically and career wise.
So maybe a social worker?
