Focus for the week

It is hard to focus on your studies when you have a younger 6 year old sibling running around the house singing Chinese, English, Alien songs, stealing your stationery and lying on her back underneath your desk trying to tickle your feet. And if you are 8 or 10, chances are that you will quickly abandon your work and join in the fun. In the end, everyone gets a big scolding.

So it’s just another week of focused revision, doing practice papers and so on. But don’t forget, we parents have to mark those papers, explain the mistakes and print out the next set of papers. At least it is only for one, or two kids. Not forty.
