What are you sorry for?

Well, it was more of an ironic statement. But I did come across many people looking at me in disbelief. Plus, maths was probably the most hated subject in my school.

I take it the maths teachers there weren't great then?

I loved Maths because it's probably one of the few subjects where I didn't have to study!

Oh yeah, I liked that about it too

I used to be able to get by, but when it came to the more advanced and methodically involved maths I started needing practice. And since I wasn't used to needing to study that bit me in the long run.

Yeah that definitely bit me when I took Calculus 2 in Uni. Unfortunately, had to repeat this class 3 times.
Although I admit a large part of it was because I was bad at attendance and lack of wanting to study this.

And which one did you hate the most?

For me I hate physics the most.

Which one you asking?

I hated English, like... A lot! Most of the things I've learned were on the Internet or playing. The classes were simply useless. I'm not being ironic if I say that they were still teaching the colours when we were 10 years old . Then, when I had to face with real English, it was frustrating af...

English in our school was reading books. Pretty much that since we knew english already

English is boring, but I don’t hate it.

I’m so good at English that my teachers once gave me this site as an assignment. I had to write about the history or something for extra credit. It was werid

Well that was definitely a Thing in the Spanish classes too. Apart from the grammar/ortography/literature lessons, we had to read a book every three months and do an exam about it

Not gonna lie, most of them were boring af, but there were some cool ones. Actually, thanks to these classes I discovered my favourite book.

And that would be...?

Y’all’s English classes sound totally different from mine. I’m currently learning about the different between a uptopia and a dystopia

Definitely more complex than the exam I had to do to get in the university.

If I have some time, I'll send a picture of it, I think I have it here with the rest of them!

How is the utopia/dystopia worth more than a 10 second mention?

Oh cool! Tbh my English teacher last year really liked me. But he made this comment. Still haven’t stopped thinking about it

You explain them, you let the students discuss about those ideas (in English, of course)... And you practice your English skills with a bit more complex topic, and not with the fucking colours.
