Teacher's comments part II

'Haruto’s command of English has improved progressively over these 3 months and he has since picked up some simple writing skills. Haruto, however, has a tendency to imitate and follow what other classmates do in both good and bad behaviours. I believe he will be better able to distinguish between behaviours to model after as he matures in the older class.'

'Koharu’s command of the English language is easily one of the finest in class and is now able to spell and write her name fully on her own. Koharu has also matured into a more sensible and disciplined child in the last 3 months, and displays a willingness to share and care for her classmates. As she moves on to the next level, Koharu should be able to cope effectively.'

'Kano’s writing skill is easily one of the best in class. She is not just able to spell and write her name fully on her own, but also displays effective abilities in drawing and colouring. She has an effective command of English and is almost always one of the most disciplined student in class to follow the instructions of the teachers.'

'Eita has shown the greatest improvement in class in terms of discipline and maturity over the last 3 months. Although still active and mischievous, he responds positively to instructions and restraints from the teachers. He is also more attentive in class and when on his own, can be sweet and obedient. Keep up the good work, Eita!'

'Since resuming school after the winter break, Toshi has displayed a significant drop in attention span. He remains active and playful, but has seemingly become more difficult to control and discipline in class. Toshi’s tendency to be too rough can often upset his classmates. Overall, his English has remained at a satisfactory level.'

'Ayane’s English is easily one of the finest in class. She remains cheerful and easygoing and continues to get along very well with her classmates. Although lacking in writing skills, she has a good sense of spatial and visual judgment and is able to follow craftwork effectively. I believe Ayane will be able to cope very well as she moves on to the next level.'

'Yuki retains a fine range of English vocabulary and has also picked up a good level of writing skills. He is one of the few in class who is able to spell and write his name without help. Although mild and quiet in nature, Yuki has forged a strong friendship with a more cheerful and active Haruto. As one of the more steady students in class, Yuki should not have any problems moving on to the next level.'

'As the newest addition and the youngest in class, Cocoro has been spending considerable time adjusting to the new environment. Her initial bawlings have since dwindled down to occasional bursts of tears, and she is now able to sit with her classmates to enjoy lunch time. It is still too pre-mature to observe her command of English but Cocoro shows keen interest and enthusiasm in learning.'
