    I wonder how will wenhui be able to manage her schoolwork, esp with such sub-standard teachers..
    I have little time, so I only spend 15 minutes each day teaching my sis the questions she don't know, as well as to give her dictation tests prior to her weekly dictation test.
    I doubt the quality of primary school teachers these days.
    My suspicions were confirmed when I was teaching wenhui long division in depth just now. After some time teaching her, I was overcome with frustration. At one point, I had even slammed the table while shouting at the top of my voice, "他妈的,这是什么crap老师?!"
    First, this teacher had not taught her students the concept of long division with remainders, instead choosing to jump to the next topic after leaving the division topic half-taught. Secondly,she had not even bothered to go through where my sis had gone wrong in her previous worksheet. Thirdly, she had not empathized the importance of the multiplication table to her students, thus leaving my sis with no idea of the multiplication table(this is especially so as by P3, students should be able to memorise the multiplication table up to multiples of 12, as several topics taught require multiplication.)
    Is this lack of competency on the part of the teacher,or is the teacher simply not putting in effort to teach these weaker students?
    (My sis is in the weaker class.) I had realised that she had allocated 30mins of remedial time for 3PE, but better classes had been given more attention, with 1hour remedials. What logic is this, you might ask. Does being less bright students mean that they do not deserve your attention? Is it correct to assume that these students will never do well, thus reducing the need for attention?
    Enough being said about this teacher, I'm off to make sure that wenhui knows how to do long division. And I will prove her assumptions incorrect. I believe wenhui can do much better even with her sub-standard teaching.

    Tag replies!
