How do you ask your teacher to help you?

Just write to them in a simple and straightforward way. Make sure to present them some ideas that you have tried to work through the problem and then share with them that you still need their help, showing that you have worked proactively and responsibly to find a solution for yourself and you're coming to them as a last resort.

What can I do with a gap year?

Spend some time getting to know who you are and what you want your future to look like. Getting to know other people and how they communicate. Finding opportunities to expose yourself to different industries. Do not squander your time doing things that really don't serve your future. Connecting with a life coach that specializes in working with teens and young adults to help you figure out your direction and a sense of purpose can also be of great help.

What is it like being a hotel front desk?

You get to meet all sorts of really interesting people, and you get the opportunity to change that customer's experience, because they do often come to the front desk with a problem. Also, this position gives you a lot of knowledge of how other operations in the hotel work and a lot of exposure to leadership, if you're working in the type of hotel where you might want to advance your career.
