Please remember these things:

1. This is a homework help website; please put your subject (math, science, English, or ??) in the subject line to make it faster for each teacher to find those questions in his/her areas. An even better subject heading would be more specific – such as FACTORING, SHAKESPEARE, PRONOUNS, CIVIL WAR.

In addition, “PLEASE HELP” or “HELP” is not a subject, no matter how many ASAPs or exclamation marks you put after it!

2. Please include in your post the answer or response you have come up with so far. Teachers here will not do your homework for you, but we are happy to point you in the right direction and give you feedback on your own thinking.

3. Please do not post personal information anywhere on the Internet -- not your name, your email address, where you live, where you go to school, or anything. It's just not a smart or safe thing to do online.

5. The teachers here are all volunteers. Not everyone is online all the time. Please post your questions with plenty of time for answers; if you ask last-minute questions, you might be disappointed.

Thanks for using Jiskha Homework Help.

Subject: Reminder for proper posting on Jiskha Homework Help

Hello,

Thank you for using Jiskha Homework Help. We appreciate your participation in seeking assistance with your homework. To ensure a smooth and efficient process, we kindly request that you follow these guidelines:

1. Include the subject in the subject line: When posting a question, please clearly state the subject of your question in the subject line. This will help the teachers quickly identify questions in their respective areas of expertise. Using a specific subject heading is even better, as it allows for better organization and faster response times. For example, if your question is about factoring, using "FACTORING" as the subject would be helpful.

2. Provide your answer or response: While teachers here are eager to help, it is important to note that they will not simply provide the answer or solution for your question. However, they are happy to guide you in the right direction and give feedback on your own thinking. Therefore, it would be beneficial if you include your initial answer or response in your post. This will help the teachers understand your thought process and provide targeted assistance.

3. Safeguard personal information: Please refrain from posting any personal information anywhere on the internet, including your name, email address, location, or school. Protecting your privacy and online safety is of utmost importance. Avoid sharing any sensitive information that could potentially be misused.

4. Recognize that teachers are volunteers: The teachers on Jiskha Homework Help are all volunteers who dedicate their time and knowledge to assist you. Keep in mind that not all teachers will be online at all times. Therefore, it is recommended to post your questions well in advance, allowing sufficient time for answers. Last-minute questions may not receive immediate responses.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in following these guidelines. They will help facilitate a positive and helpful environment for all users of Jiskha Homework Help.
