<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

My TA is a PhD grad student in the same field I currently study in undergrad. I've only known him since the beginning of this semester (around Sept). He's the nerdy, more reserved type, and he's brilliant at solving equations and abstract thinking. Meanwhile, I have to put in a lot of effort to understand the material, and end up asking him a lot of questions in office hours. He's very patient, but I'm scared I'm increasingly coming across as an idiot. 

We had a midterm last week, and he's handing them back sometime soon. I don't know how to handle the embarrassment if I did poorly, especially after going to his office hours for help so many times. The class is small too, so there's no chance of just "blending in" with the crowd either.
<bot>: My crush is super smart, and probably thinks I'm a dumb schoolgirl. How do I endure the rest of the semester with him in the class?
