Seriously?

In my English class this semester, I am working with a high school student I was randomly paired with to help him become a better writer. I am the ONLY person in my class of over 20 who has had no response from my student. I try everything I can and he still doesn't write anything. It is truly frustrating to me because I can't do everything I need to do in this class. I so behind on learning and work compared to the rest of the class.

This professor is punishing me for not being able to get my student to write. I have met him once in person and the rest of the contact has been online. He can (and has) choose to ignore me. So what do I do? I am doing the best I can. I couldn't do today's assignment and my professor acted like I am some irresponsible student. I am doing the best I can. I am not slacking at all. I am checking to see if my student responded to me, I am doing the parts of the assignments I can do, and I am being punished.

I practically was yelled at in front of class today for not having my assignment (to grade his assignment) done. The professor knew I did everything I could. He know I was doing the best I could with what I had. Yet, he still gets mad at me. I can't win with him. I love the premise of this class but I am about one more class period of hell from dropping it.
