"Adding oil" for YY

Recently took a Sec 4 kid under my charge. He's re-taking Chinese in the coming O-Level, which is unfortunately only 3 weeks away at the end of October. Lesson started last Tuesday and he will be having lesson on every Tuesday and Friday till the very last minute. These lessons are extra, excluding those he has on Saturday.

Poor boy. He has Chinese tuition 3 times a week.

His foundation is very weak. Too weak. Weaker than my regular students who are in Sec 2. This is the least I had expected.

How to get him ready for battle in such short time? How to "spot" questions? A lot of "how to" that I have to find answers to.

I am in fact apprehensive and worried. Very worried.

But I am determined to do my best for him.

I hope he won't find my "training regime" of doing practices and more practices mundane.

All the best YY! 加油! I will do my part and you must put in effort too.

Don't worry... This isn't one of those spam comments... Irritating, aren't they...? First got spam email, then got spam SMSes and now got spam blog comments... What's next...?

Anyway, glad to read that you aren't cowering in the face of the tremendous difficulities that seem to be in your way... 天下无难事只怕有心人。。。Well, confident that he would benefit greatly from your guidance... 明师出高徒。。。 :P

Just some pre-emptive advice, if even your best efforts, he still doesn't succeed (touch wood infinite times), don't blame yourself... Know that you did your best... Remember, a person's Life isn't measured by a single failure or success...
