28 May General supervision
taught 4 upper primary boys today.
all were doing chinese which they apparently dislike
my first time teaching them and they first started ignoring me and chatting among themselves
didnt control them and end up having an auntie to scold them
"oi you gang there 开会不在这里开的阿!" den they keep quiet
one started to ask me how to do then the rest followed suit
i shocked one had quite a major problem with han4 yu3 pin1 yin1
couldnt figure out whether its 1,2,3,or 4 声
one difficulty i encountered is when explaining to them how to do the "rearrange the words to form a sentence" question
its quite hard to explain without giving them the answer
so i had to resort to using english, which is not quite good either
