Default Re: Is it me or them?

I have had students like these, and I although I know it's not me at fault -- because a lot of my students learn quite fast too -- I have to let go of classes with them. Because I realized that, as one commenter had said, I may not be the right teacher for them. Besides, teaching lessons over and over without them actually learning had been far too frustrating for me that it already affected my mood and my self-esteem, too. I know that as teachers we need to be patient, but we are also humans, and we need to see when students just refuse to learn. I just think of it as them having a subconscious refusal to learn the new language.
