Revision

It's Thursday night and the end of another long, long week. We've been doing revision lessons all week and it has been so tiring.

It always amazes me that students are so short-sighted. They've known from the beginning of the year that they'll have to do an end of year exam but it's only in the last couple of weeks that they've started even thinking about it. All those students who couldn't be bothered to do the homework (especially the writing) are suddenly demanding to know what will be in the exam (as if I'd tell them!) and what they need to know in order to do the writing exam and, boy, does it annoy me when students who've made little or no effort throughout the year suddenly expect to be handed everything they need in order to pass the exam, on a plate.

Still, the week is over and we've just three lesson until the end of term. I'll follow that with a week and a half of intensive lessons for those taking Cambridge exams this December then...

FREEDOM!!!
