one student thinks that her english is sucky

when i was marking her essay for P1, i realised that it wasn't half bad. admittedly, she could have stuck to the 4 + 2 format, instead of just giving one counter-argument. admittedly, she could have elaborated more so as to score points for depth. admittedly, she could have tried to use a variety of sentence structures and vocabulary to score higher for language

but it was a respectable attempt. to make such an improvement in 3 months is commendable.

of course, i don't profess that her improvement is due to my efforts. though i would like to believe that my drilling of the 4 +2 format and one paragraph = one main idea helped somewhat. shameless, haha. but i kinda stared in awe at her script, feeling really proud of her progress

isn't this the purpose of me being here?

*******
on a side note, as cheena as i am, i really miss having dyed hair


i wonder how these kids are doing...
