Teacher: I'll draw a turtle on the board for you. But I'm not good at drawing so please be patient with me . To give someone a cold shoulder means to ignore them, not look at them, and not pay any attention to them.

Hi,

Teacher : I'll draw a turtle on the board for you. But I'm not good at drawing so please understand me.

'Please understand me' is not at all idiomatic. You could say 'Please forgive me', although that is rather formal.

More natural is eg Sorry, I'm not good
