No, i need to talk in person.
From personal experience, it’s better to tell them earlier than later. Though I’d guess he’ll be mad either way, if it were me I’d email him in advance and get it over with, your just delaying the inevitable which will get worse as time goes on so just man up 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thanks but i'm not struggling i just can't do it.
Long story short i'm going through depression and i haven't told my teacher who i go to talk about my problems.
Should i tell him tomorrow even though it is due in tomorrow,

Email him because if you leave it and don't tell him then it will just seem like you couldn't be bothered to do it and are just lazy whereas if you email and tell him your circumstances now, he will probably be more understanding :smile:
call in sick

If you email him and he’s the one you speak to about your problems I’m sure he’d understand to an extent. As long as it’s not a definite deadline that must be done that day he may even extend the deadline for you. Just don’t mess up on not doing it that time otherwise he may not be so understanding the next time

It's late anyway. He won't get mad cuz he isn't the one who teaches me the subject he's the one who i go to talk about my problems.
I'm suffering form depression.

Be honest. It will save you a lot of hassle later on. They will understand and give you another deadline for you to meet. But it will be classed as a late submission.

I assumed he was your subject teacher but now I know he isn’t, I’d still email him in advance anyways since it won’t harm you in letting him know in advance, but if you can’t then your only option is to see him tomorrow, if you do I’d at least see him as early as possible.

Yes. Teachers understand and take your concern into due consideration.
