How do you use the subjuctive in this case?

The teacher wants me to do my homework.

Is it, El profesor qiuero que haga (yo) mi tarea.

OR El profesor quiero que hagas (tu) mi tarea.

El profesor quiere que yo haga la tarea.

If the teacher had wanted you to do someone else's homework you could go back to using the possessive adjective.

El profesor quiere que yo haga la tarea de ella.

El profesor quiere que yo haga * su* tarea.

The definite article is used with body parts, items of clothing and personal items, rather than the possessive adjective. The possessive adjective is used to remove ambiguity when necessary.
