1. Every lesson, there would be at least one child who would lose (or gain) a stationery item.
2. Despite being in school for more than 6 hours prior to their tuition session, they could still retain information and participate in the activities with such enthusiasm.
3. Despite inhaling the rest of their group mates' 'oh so wonderful' natural body smells :S, they could still retain information and participate in the activities with such enthusiasm.
4. They would always reach my home in twos, threes, fours , fives or collectively as a group. Never had a fellow earlybird tutee come alone.
5. They have their own respective favourite seats and would sulk (girls) or fight(boys) if they discover their 'choped' seat is taken.
6. Family/Friendship/BGR/School secrets will surely be revealed during 'Show N Tell' in the blink of an eye.
7. For every 'Mega' tuition lesson whereby all the boys and girls unite under one roof, they would be in their best outfits and try to impress their respective 'crushes'. (Tsk Tsk)
8. Everytime I mention the word 'Competition Compo', they would rejoice and celebrate like I was throwing them a party.
9. Everytime I go through an answer to a Maths question, they would check their own answer first. If they got it right, they would be like helicopters hovering over their mates' papers. If their mates got the answer wrong, they would holler,' So easy also can get wrong ah!' BUT BUT BUT if they got the answer wrong, they would just...sit still. No turning right or left.
10. Their favourite question: 'Cher, tomorrow got tuition?' ....knowing very well that their tuition sessions are already fixed at say, Wednesdays and Fridays.
PSLE results were released last Thursday and come next year, 18 tutees of mine will be donning their respective new crisp Secondary School uniforms. Congratulations Batch 09!
Tutees (Batch 10) are you ready for Mdm Nura?
2010, here we comeeeeee!
