Writing 11

【Tough】


Again! I didn't let my students go until the phone rang and told me to let them leave. There were too many things to do, and too less time allowing me to finish all of them. I know that it is my duty to make sure my students can go home right after 8:30, and I understand how important it is to follow the schedule so that I won't wast my time. The boss had told me to make good use of time for several times, and I'm quite sure this drives her crazy, but accidents do happen, and they happen all the time! Students just go crazy all of a sudden, what can I do then? Everyone in the company knows those kids are talkative.

I try to make it simple and clear so the kids can understand what I'm trying to explain in a short period of time, but guess what? The harder I explain, the more I find their difficulty based on grammar problem, which makes me force myself to explain more. Obviously, that's what causes me to delay the time of class dismiss.

Sometimes I just get confused about why my boss encourages me to give new materials to those kids all the time, while a lot more things keep me from not taking her advise. Of course I want my kids to use new materials, I've tried listening before, and they do not hate it. They are not so young as "children"; instead, I would rather call them young ladies and young men. I know very well that they are ready to take challenging classes, and are all willing to follow my rules, just if only I have enough time!

"too less time" ==> "too little time".

"I won't wast my time" ==> "I won't waste my time". Unforgivable typo.

"The boss had told me to make good use of time for several times, and I'm quite sure this drives her crazy," ==> "Several times the boss has told me to make good use of time, and I'm quite sure this drives her crazy,".

"all of a sudden, what can I do then?" COMMA SPLICE.

"but guess what? The harder I" ==> "but the harder I'. "Guess what?"is just too cute. Don't use this low-level rhetorical device.

Generally outstanding. Keep up the good work.
