Had a student yesterday who was SO hyper and wired. I'm not really sure what to do about it. She is normally a bit silly, but it isn't usually a problem, but this week and last week she was being so silly it was actually quite disruptive to the lesson. I just sat there calmly and repeated what I was saying when I thought she might be calm enough to take it in. She is quite a nice kid but she is not going to learn anything if she continues to behave this way at lessons. At what point do I speak to her mother (who is in the next room for all the lessons anyway and should theoretically hear everything that is going on) about this?
I managed to sleep in until 7am today and feel much better for it. I still want to get an early night tonight though; tomorrow is another meeting with the landlord, then a trip to IKEA, then cleaning out the garage with
leunnammi. After today (work all day and then Cub Scouts) I will likely be quite tired.
Just got a phonecall to go to a job interview - NOW - eep! Wish me luck!
