How funny. I love how he tried both flattery and a excessively formal writing style. Gotta give him credit for trying. lol

I think you handled the situation very well. I get frustrated in some of my classes when I work very hard to meet deadlines and make sure everything is done properly and then the "slacker" student makes up some excuse and gets an extension.

Anyway, I agree with Mandy. I think you would be one of those "unforgettable" teachers!

Why aren't there more teachers like you Judy? This world could sure benefit from having you cloned my friend.

He sounds like a momma's boy who is trying to manipulate his way through life. "I'll see" is a good approach!!!! Way to go, Judy!!

He did try everything in his first e-mail. Flattery and a nice writing style. He just forgot to add "Since your my favorite teacher........."!!!!!!! You handled it very well, in my opinion!!!! "I'll see"!!!!!!!!

This would've been a better intro...

Good afternoon Prof. Bloom, my absolute favorite and most wonderful teacher ever. This is Hemsley Joseph from your Saturday class held between 9am to 12:30pm, the best class I have ever attended!

Thanks for the compliments! I could fail him based in the fact that his "suck-up" letter is maybe two amazingly long, run-on sentences, he didn't proofread and needs some caps in there.

I think he has a future in writing those scam letters.

LOL I'm a teacher also (middle school & high school). I hate excuses, and don't accept them. You are nicer than I am!
