Don't worry, your not the only one  who is in that position.
I guess the best advise i can give you for English is to write up essays each week and give it to your teacher ( or may be another teacher) to correct.
And with your other subjects, try to be an independent learner, and if you need help approach your teacher during your free's or ask a friend or so.
39 for methods without a tutor i would say a job well done.

Don't just hand it to your English class teacher, get OTHER teachers and peers to correct it. From my very limited 3-week experience, just handing it to your English teacher garners you nowhere near enough feedback.

Yes, unless you can get your english teacher to correct essays that you write by yourself :D

This is why I loved my English teacher.

Best thing to do I reckon is that if you think you need a tutor for a particular subject, try one for a week or two, and if you don't think it's helping or you think it's a waste of time, just stop. This is what I did with my English tutor at the beginning of last year (expect I thought she was sort of helping, so instead of two weeks of tutoring it ended up being something like 2 months..total waste of time btw). I never thought I needed a tutor for maths or physics so I didn't get one. If you think you have a firm understanding of the subject, a tutor won't do much IMO.
When I get sad, I stop being sad, and be AWESOME instead. True story.
