We taught our daily class, I taught one of my best classes, class 8, and then we had a couple of hours to relax before the competition!
We ended up in a conference room with 30 students and a few other teachers and one by one the students came up to talk about a random topic they have prepared over the last few days. IT was very hit and miss but Chris and I used 40-90 as our range of marks, so as not to discourage anyway. Half way through we looked at the chinese teachers and they had all scored between 78 and 90! crazy!
In the second half they were given a a topic with only a few minutes to prepare, and this time we marked out of 20, to try and get in the same ballpark!

Some kids were awesome, some better than others but all really good kids!
Afterwards Eamon gave us £10 each for our troubles which we wern't expecting, and they were all very grateful for our help. We have to be up early tomorrow to teach so I will leave it there! Tomorrow is a difficult day, teach -break teach -break teach-break teach-break then later on our primary aged tutor class! but hopefully a bit more cash in the bank!
