She sounds more like a student in a GED class than a teacher.
As opposed to what? A student in a public school class?
In my experience a fair percentage of GED students would have been above average students any place other than the public schools. I quit school not due to bad grades but because I hated the place, many of my teachers and most of my classmates.
I went on to take my GED and aced it before the graduating class. I even finished in the top 1% of those who took the test that year and only found out because the state was trying to find out why high achievers were dropouts.
I wish we had online schooling back in the 80s. I would have begged for an online private education.

My younger daughter went through a GED class for some of the same reasons as you did; she did great, and got almost all A’s! She also had a form of homeschooling (most of it online), and she also did great in college testing, ACT and SAT!
