I did get some payback to some cheaters in my classes -
I was pissed off with all the cheating going on and also the fact that i was in the best school in town i.e rich mummies and daddies.

I first had an oral examination which i painstakingly conducted by myself - giving a three-five min exam to each kid individually in a private room. The first time at the beginning of the year I failed a few but then i was encouraged to not fail any students. i HAD to fail a few (but only just) cos their english was UTTER SHY-ZEN - thats not pin yin, just the word "shite" excenuated cos they are THAT unbelivably crap at english.Smile

anyway..come the end of the year, i warned the students that this time round i said to them in chinese that i dont give a crap who ur mum and dad are, and what they do - if ur english is crap, ur going to fail. The oral examination was long and boring, but it was SOOOO worth it to fail so many crappy students who had really bad english and who thought that it didnt matter cos they would get a pass!!!!Smile i failed 20 students in one class alone!

an example of one exam i had:

me: whats your name?
student: ..er...mm..m..yeah, yeah (with a smile)
me:...ok....erm..how old are you?
student: ....pause..erm...I like football.
me:..ok...mm..When is your birthday?
student:...erm...(proceeds to try to spell October)....O-B-..er..C...T...er..


To make sure they got the message of failing, i printed out all the reesults and stuck them all over the school and announced to each class. have some of THATTTTT you little gits!!!Smile

p.s. i am actually a really nice guy.
