Haha, I think that I'm having this blogging bug tonight.
I guess this is one of the best ways to improve, if not maintain my standard of English.
In giving tuition, I realised how much my English has deteriorated when I find it difficult to find synonyms or explain some words.
Omg, even my way of writing now disgusts me. I find it rather difficult now to put my thoughts down coherently in words and it scares me.
I used to think that my English was brilliant, and teaching English was something I could do easily. But strangely now I dread to teach my tutee English cos I find it so tough to teach and explain the language!!! Especially comprehension and summary - I feel like it is draining the life out of me...
I think my tuition kid is cute!!!! :)
I had tuition with the sec 2 kid today and we were doing science. The question was on the topic forces.
Something like: Mary's schoolbag is so heavy that the thin strap of the bag is cutting into her skin, hurting her. What should she do?
Haha I found it really amusing that his suggestion was for Mary to buy a new bag.
True, true. I wish this answer can really be accepted cos I really like it!
And he laughs at the smallest things. I wonder whether I was like that when I was 14.
Omg, it seems like a superrrrrrr long time ago.
Giving tuition makes me feel OLD! :(
Just yesterday I was going through past year olevel chemistry questions. One of them was from 2006 - the year I took Olevels!!!!!
THAT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!
I told my tutee that and suddenly felt a tinge of regret. He must be thinking that I am freaking old!!!!!!!!!!!! (that would what I would be thinking if I were him)
Even if he doesn't think so, I think that I am really old. It depresses me. :(
Sigh.
