Sigh. . . . ESL problems. Spent twenty minutes tonight in a disagreement with a student over the date of the mid-term. I stupidly stated the exam would be “next week on Thursday.” – – – “But teacher, we don’t have class on Thursday next week. . . ” I’m sorry??? “We have class on Thursday this coming week. Then the next week no class on Thursday.” It’s the little things in ESL teaching – like trying to explain what precisely “this week” and “next week” mean. They always think “next week” means the “week after next.” Confusing? I know, me too 😛 The life I live!
