assault wave 2
2nd tuition session today. Their mum's not home. Just the kids and the maid. Usual cheerfulness and mischievousness. So today I was supposed to teach the boy while the girl does her allocated worksheets outside the room. The boy is so inattentive! ARGHGHGHGH. After twenty minutes he started drifting and talking a lot. I didn't know what to do... so I just made the best of the situation, by just listening to what he had to say and ask questions about his experiences. He talked about the fun fair at the pasar malam, the tv shows and cartoons he watched. He even described the characters in tong xin yuan (some chanel 8 drama which recently ended) and Missing, and how he said hopes the suspect will be found soon. So smart.
So after one hour, we only went through 2 pages of the accessment book. Argh. Kinda frustrating whenever kids say dunnoe without even thinking. And he keeps snacking too. Chocolate. potato chips. Seaweed.
I taught the sister after 1.5hours with the boy. And I was really guilty after 2 hours because I felt that there could have been more work accomplished. So I only left after 2.5 hours.
Haii.. this tuition money. Really harps on your morals.
Met the dad too. A chinese man. We walked out and took the lift down together, and had a short little talk about each other, and about his kids.
