We will explain through humanistic and neurobiological perspective

Explanation:

Humanistic perspective: Mrs B feels lonely and depressed as a result of the loss of her 82 year old Father. This has affected her teaching greatly in a negative way as she has become insecure and lonely thinking that the students don't like her too.

Neurobiological perspective: the loss of Mrs B's 82 year old father has caused chemical reactions in her brain that mean loneliness and depression. These negative emotions have left unable to concentrate on her work and as a result be disorganized.
