Speaking Tests (Round 2)

This week my students had their semester speaking tests. Instead of normal classes they would each come talk to me in my office for up to one minute. I would then ask them a question and give them a score.

Most of my students did very well and told me some interesting stories. However, some students didn't go so well. Here are some of the funny things that I was told this week:

Student: .....and that's why my brother is my role model.
Me: Good. How many brothers do you have? 

Student: 26
Me: (Big family)

Student: My favourite book is Harry Potter and the order of Penis. 

Student: My weakness is that I have small eyes. So I do eye exercises everyday to help make my eyes big and wide. 
(This was followed by the student performing a demonstration of this by looking all around the room)

Student: Hello Mr Parry. My name is Dum Bit Cher. 

(This was funny last speaking tests and was funny again this time.)

Student: Books are good and are very impotent. I like to read books because they are impotent. 


8:20 - Walking into school
Student: Teacher I have a speaking test today.
Me: Oh ok. Good luck.
Student: You are very handsome.
Me: (Smile)
Student: Do I get a 10 out of 10 now?

Student: My favourite movie is Narnia. I don't like that movie.
Me: (Make up your mind...)

Student walks into my office for the test
Student:  I'm sorry Mr. Parry but I do not speak English very well. 
(Note: This sentence was spoken in perfect English)
Me: So you didn't prepare anything?
Student: No, I am sorry. 
Me: Ok...thanks. 
Student leaves my office
(Unfortunately this happened maybe 2-5 times per class)

Student: My main worry in my life is my face.
