Lost in translation

So my Japanese sensei(teacher) took me up to his office today to discuss my recent quiz grade which was a C. I knew i had understudied due to a big Psych test i had on the same day, so I wasnt surprised with the grade. However my teacher was under the presumption that I was having trouble with the material and he was concerned that if i couldnt master the subject matter on this first test, I would have trouble with the harder things. Yet with his poor english, he didnt articulate what he was really trying to say and instead informed me that I would barely pass the class depending on my midterm and that I might consider dropping the class. He told me that unless I was pleased with working hard to marginally pass, I should perhaps drop or look into serious tutoring.
Now I havent failed anything in my class, so I have no idea wtf he is talking about, and as he continues to give me a nervous breakdown, I realized what he was trying to tell me.
I felt better, but he ruined my day.
I need a good cry and perhaps a hug.... T_T
