Stupidity and Annoyance of My Fellow Classmates
I never liked my fellow classmates because of their stupidity and annoyance throughout my school years.
By "the stupidity of my classmates," I mean their scholastic ability. In one of my math classes, there was a girl that would stall the class because of her frequent questions. I went to the teacher about her, but I guess the situation was solved by her dropping-out of the class. However, nearly everyone was not getting the material but me. How do I know? They would get C's, D's, or F's while I got A's, and they would frequently ask questions. In a summer school class in programming, in which I got all that was taught, a girl would ask me for help constantly, in class and outside of class. As angry as I was, I told her one day that nobody wanted to help her, and she became disappointed. In Spanish, I was mad about the fact that people would mispronounce words, conjugate verbs improperly, and forget vocabulary words.
The annoyance of my classmates has caused me to go up to teachers and talk about ways I could deal with it, which never helped. In English and science, there was someone in both classes that would ask inane questions, sometimes irrelevant ones. Sometimes kids would ask to use the restroom, to take a break, or to get something they forgot. I would say "yeah, right" to myself and sometimes aloud because I thought of it as an excuse to get out of class. Occasionally, when someone was asked to read aloud and they were unwilling to, they would decline with an excuse. I wondered, What is so difficult about reading aloud? Sometimes, kids would make loud noises or throw things. I did not like it; I felt like I was on a battlefield.
I want this stupidity and annoyance to stop; I cannot tolerate it, but it is hard to make them stop. How do I cope with it or tell them to stop with their stupidity and annoyance?

One day, maybe in college, I can guarantee you will find one of the subjects difficult. If you have any wit, you will realise then how unreasonable you are being right now.
Or I suppose you could always go down the route of complaining about how the course was badly taught or pointless...
