u/uncopyrightability

I like to work with all my students except him. This guy acts bored and starts to relax his arms and recline in his chair during the lesson. He lets me do all the talking. He rolls his eyes sometimes or raises an eyebrow. Yawns from time to time. He says thank you at the end but I just feel like he doesn't like me, the lesson or both. I think one reason for that is because I'm younger than him, but I'm not sure. For context, he specifically asked for business English classes. I do my efforts and prepare customized lessons and PPTs just for him, but deep down, I feel like he doesn't appreciate me as a person. I'm willing to bet my left kidney that he wouldn't get business English classes with such quality and precision for the very measly price I'm doing it with him.

I wanted to point this out during the lesson, but I didn't feel I was ready for confrontation. I can't work with someone who attends the class feeling forced to do so.

It's not like he pays tens of dollars for these classes. He only does one hour a week. Over five months of subscription, I only earned $76.65 with him.

What do you guys think?

The title. A legend among amateurs. There's only so many shots you can block. If it wasn't for him, we would have left the game with 4 or 5 goals. He's doing his job and then some. The others were terrible.

A catastrophic performance... Players moving like they had bran for breakfast..

Morocco's performance against France in 22 was far better than whatever was saw today. Kudos to Bono, who actually has nothing to be ashamed of.

Egypt is toying with Argentina!

you just gotta BELIEVE!

even if the odds are stacked against us... to BELIEVE is FREE!

Sometimes the underdog has to suprise and upset the monster heel.. It happens. It's rare, but it is inevitable. It happens in football. It really does.

This might be the time for Morocco to pull it off. BELIEVE!

We did it with some of the biggest names in international football. Spain. Portugal. Netherlands.

France might be next.

BELIEVE!

I will keep on BELIEVING until the match ends. I feel like there will be a big surprise at the quarters.

BELIEVE!

You are as "useless" or as "useful" as basketball cleats?

Both can be semantically correct.

If say "useless", I imply that that person is useless in the same way the cleats are.

If I say "useful", the underlying meaning is that they are as useful as the cleats, which are essentially useless, which makes them useless as well.

What would you say and why?
