I have a similar problem at my school although it is not as difficult as yours. I have three friends who have studied together for many years and want to study business English. Two want to study hard and the other just wants to take me out to dinner all the time.
I solved it by 1) setting homework for the advanced guys 2) providing written material for preparation where I had found and explained all the difficult stuff to the lower student and got the advanced guys to find it for themselves 3) ask the lower guy the easier questions and get the advanced guys to do the 'offer an opinion and justify it' stuff 3) instead of going on a '1:1' dinner date with the student I organized it so everyone went and he had to pay for all of us (he hasn't offered to take me out again since that^^) and 4) found a nice single lady student from another class, told her that her English was much higher than the class she had been in, switched her to this class and organized a date between her and the dinner date student.
All in all a very satisfactory result for a blimmin annoying class. Now all is sweet in the land of 'biz/conversation/i don't want to learn, just date the teacher/my inguhlishee no good' evening classes at my hagwon. ^^ |
Wait, this is a very confusing tale. So which student did you end up hooking up with, the lady or the dinner ajosshi? How does this help me in my quest to teach a better class and bonk the college girl?
Seriously folks, the school realized the girl is going to drop out because the level is too hard, so she's joining a different class and i may have her in my free talking class in a few months (if I'm still in korea...). |
