I give up ! Hopeless!

Wooh... what a day for me.... my student actually told me she failed all her subjects except Chinese... which is only merely passed... She's very clever in talking but y she dun apply to her studies? Imagine she said stop pressing her to study and doing hmwork! Hey I good enough to sacrifice my time to do revision with her during her exams period... and mY EXAM PERIOD too... Im just a tutor... k and she can say such things... Never seen a girl like this before and she's only Primary 5... Even her grandma cant stand her and wanted to send her off to her paternal granny's house... I alwaez thought that nobody is hopeless... so I enjoy teaching tuition... well... now I met a real NOBODY who is hopeless....

for the past whole year, I'd been emphasizing that she must continue to work hard and she promised to do so... and now what happen? worse to worst! I really give up hope on her... no matter how i cultivate the right and positive studying attitude she simply ignored... now I understand how stress a school teacher can be teaching a whole class of about 40 students. I really feel that I'm a failure in teaching this girl... while my another student is so much difference from her.. the other girl is so good that I really can kow tow to her... cos even she's from China she's so much hardworking than this lazy girl.

I really dunno what to do but thinking to declined her granny's 'employment' of being a tutor. I should do this much earlier... but that fateful day... the girl told me that her grandma is suffering from slight mental depression and beiong kind.. I did not want to add burden to her grandma. So I decided to teach this girl hoping she will really work hard.... ha... useless... no matter how patient I am and how sacrificed I am... she doesn't appreciate it! Imagine the day before my major exams I have to go all the way to her house, bear with her temper, hoping she will quietly listen to my lecture and do her work as i told her to... NO.... she keep yakking away till I finally blow up my temper and she quietened... few minutes later started her chit chatting skills again.

Feel so stress teaching her and my granny was so worried about my health... cos I alwaez told her my blood pressure sure go high up... and she urged me not to teach that girl again. She said no point teaching a student who doesn't help herself... well I told my student before... "God will only help those who help themselves..." this simply becomes a silent phrase to her... I dunno why??? People keep taking advantage of me and take for granted...

Thats why I had decided to give up on this girl... the more I give in... guess she'll suffer... well perhaps she dont care at all... I had made all sacrifices and thats all I can give.. NO more.... and sayonara~
