Don't you hate this when this happens
When your teacher in the class you struggle with gets in trouble, but you still have to do work. I haven't learned anything in Math please help. My teacher ain't coming back soon. We only have subs right now. Oh and I didn't know we had school tomorrow. Kms

I'd say it's good news. Obviously that teacher didn't do a good job teaching you, so maybe a sub of the same subject can help you more efficiently.
Micah
Eh, she's not really helping much either, in fact worse tbh.

Unfortunately that's not how substitutes work, at least, not in the US. Substitutes are simply a backup teacher, usually someone in the middle of earning their degree. They don't actually teach the subject themselves, instead doing their best with the notes the actual teacher leaves behind for them.

And Micah, I'd go to my classmates for help, if that's the situation.

As basic as it sounds look up tutorials on the internet or YouTube. My bio 130 teacher can't teach for her life so I have to teach my self with the text book and the internet and managed to go from a first test grade of 53 to a mid term grade of B.

What level of mathematics? I'm a Math secondary major in Uni, I might have some useful resources.

Seeking out a tutor is probably a safe bet. I struggled with bogus teachers and didn't try to fix the situation. It's better to use your own hands to decide an outcome. So reach out and see what you have available at your school.

I can't really help because I'm in a litterary course specifically because I suck at Maths and that way I can avoid it.
