2) I wish I had consulted the teacher when I first felt that mathematics was too difficult for me.

[1]  I have made some corrections you probably didn't expect.  This is because you often used the verb "wish", when it seems better to me to use the verb "hope."  Generally, if you desire that things were different from the way they actually are, you use "wish".  Example:  "I don't speak Russian very well.  I wish I could speak it well."  But if what you desire could possibly happen in the future, then you use "hope."   Example:  "I'm going to study Russian very hard and in two years, I hope to speak it very well."

 

For example, look at sentence 13.  "I hope we meet again next summer" connotes [means] that there is a fairly good chance we can meet again."  "I wish we could meet again" connotes that it is unlikely that we will be able to meet again.
