I'm really disappointed in teaching tuition alr. My only tutee is at Clementi whch is like 1 hr plus away per trip and I charge him 180/month for sec 3 chinese.
1) I gave him 2 free books as gift when we first met. 2) I bought his assessment book which was lying with me for a long time. 3) He went overseas for 2 weeks. 4) His father is upset over new schedule (5.30-7.30 comparing to 4.30-6.30) although we set the schedule temporary last year. He said I should be the one accommodating to his timing and do not give him pressure. In fact, I even told my tutee we would set the schedule again once school begins for both of us. Anyway, I dropped my UE which is meant for my minor and planned my timetable specially for him (venue lousy, timing lousy). 5) He cancelled the tuition as that was a public holiday & made me gone a wasted trip. 6) He cancelled it again when the next day he needed to fly off early. 7) He cancelled it again & again coz the next day he's going to have an integrated program briefing. When I requested to teach again for after 1.5-month gap, he said he could only confirm with me tomorrow if his briefing ends early. 8) Subsequently, he cancelled it again claiming the next day he has a CCA meeting. 9) Today, he cancelled it again last minute in the morning, although I’ve messaged him yesterday to remind him the tuition, saying that he will have a Founder’s day rehearsal. 10) He also took a long time to answer me whether he needs tuition during Chinese New Year week.
LIKE THAT HOW TO TEACH!!!

Tried a few nice choc recently so wana share here...
1) Royce Nama
Review: It is one of the bez choc I've ever tried! It is kinda rich & smooth choc that juz melts in your mouth when you french-kiss it with your tongue~ Totally yummilicious!!! However, I find the dark choc powder that dust on it rather pointless. Maybe it is for solidification purpose so the choc wont be sticky to the box. Now I announce this tree-bark looking choc to be my new favourite! ^^
2) Royce Liqueur Choc
Review: Another delightful product from Royce! It is on par with higher end product like Godiva's liqueur choc. There are five diff wines in these little faries: yellow-Grand Marnier; red-Bisquit; pink-Cointreau; blue- Smirnoff; green-Jacohert. They taste winey n crunchy as well. I guess the chunchiness is due to the sugar crystals form at the bottom. A bit drunk after eating juz 2 of them.
3) Awfully Choc Ice Cream (dark)
Review: A very rich dark choc taste! I like it v much coz its simply dark choc taste n nothing else. Not much emulsifier, sweetener or artificial flavouring. Also, it din melt after 2 hr plus travelling journey w.o ice pack whch is amazing. To enjoy it is pure bliss!
I'm really fortunate to taste all these delicacies! At the same time quite surprised not many ppl know them when I put them as part of my MSN nick. Actually all of them are donated by my fren who commented: You never tried Royce before? Then you really haven't enjoy good things in life yet. Now, my next mission is to share my bliss with other ppl as well. ^^
