So a bit of a background : Twice a week I go to a teacher. He has 2 groups of pupils. One is writing a test while another one is checking their previously written test with teacher. One day I felt sick and did not go to the lesson, so my teacher asked me to come another day to write the test. I went, started writing a task and another of my teachers students came. I won't start writing a hundred-ward essay of how my heart started beating when i saw her etc. I will just say that i really liked her.
When I came home after that lesson, I started thinking about her (yeah) and when I started doing homework I did is with great pleasure, because I had a goal. Improve myself to be with that girl. Sounds like a dumb love song but well :D that is the truth.
I thought she will be studying with our group so I was pretty "hyped" for my next lesson. She did not come. Not on the next one too. And today I saw her again, but she was in the other group. So basically we sit in the same home but in different rooms.
The whole day I have been thinking of how to introduce myself, get to know her.. Well I did not come up with anything. From childhood I was not too much of a communicable person and it was hard for me to make friends with the kids of my age. Now I have friends and it is not a problem for me to introduce myself to a person but not in this case.
When I first thought of how to introduce myself i thought this : Maybe I should just let it go? Then I thought "Hell no", I was not in a relationship before, maybe because I never took my chance?
Then I thought that maybe I should wait for her by my teachers house, and when she comes out go to her, say that I liked her and ask if I could get to know her better. But it will be hard for me, and maybe uncomfortable for that girl. But what have i to lose?
Then I thought that going to an unknown girl and saying that I liked her and want to get to know her better is embarassing, both to me and the girl.
So maybe any of you can advice some good ways to introduce myself to her? I find it easier to talk about it on a forum and not with friends.
TL;DR
How should I introduce myself to a girl I like?
Also have you ever seen so many word "Thought" in one blog? :D
100% :D

You don't want to come off TOO strong at first, but still be honest with yourself. You like her. Accept that. And use that to your advantage. They say first impressions mean a ton but honestly, it's REALLY hard to make a bad impression - you'd have to do something really dumb, and that's honestly hard to do - don't worry about it. Just introduce yourself, and try small talk. Don't try to have some kind of like 4 hour conversation if there isn't one to be had. A simple "Hi, I'm ____, and I just wanted to say I think you look nice today" can be something to set yourself up for a future conversation. It's actually pretty hard to come off creepy with something as simple as that, just don't force yourself into overthinking and overdoing things and trying to patch up every possible outcome. Simple, and honest, and then maybe try to converse in the future.
I find the most common mistake is when someone develops a crush, they try to keep a conversation or interaction going for way too long, and they burn themselves out, and worry because there's a lull in the conversation. There's going to be a lull, you don't know them too well yet. So start short, start simple, and continue in the future.
Hope it helped, might not be to your liking, but that's my take on it. Hope it works out! :)
But still I want to wish you Good Luck with it (on whichever way you are going to do this in the end)
