How do you handle a professor who never answers your emails?

I’ve been emailing a professor about some important class-related questions, but I haven’t received a single reply. It’s been over a week. I don’t want to be annoying, but I really need help. What do you do when professors don’t respond to emails?

PhantomTiger Professors are busy, but if it’s been a week, try following up with a polite reminder. Sometimes emails get buried. You could also visit office hours or ask a classmate if they’ve had better luck reaching them.
