The pressures that students feel in regards to school work come from more than just the teacher. Some students are pressured at home by other responsibilities like babysitting or housecleaning. Other students feel pressure from their friends to not worry about classes in order to fit in.
It is hard for teachers to tell why a student isn't doing well unless they are taking a personal interest in their students. Even then it may isn't easy. I really think that if a student is connected to the teacher or the subject in a personal way they will be more able to justify working on what they need to in order to succeed. It is always easier to succeed at something when you are working with someone, especially if it is someone you feel a strong connection to and have a comfortable relationship with.
