Teachers also need encouragement

Shao-Chen, a 6th grade good-looking boy from a single parent family, used to truant and smoke. Luckily, he's well-behaved in my music class and likes to stay in a while playing the recorder when I dismiss the class. I think he's made progress lately. But, he's missing again this morning. The school broadcasted to ask him to go back to class.
I was happy to see him walking into my class this afternoon! He's late, though. As usual, he stayed after the bell rang. I seized the chance to talk to him. “I like music class.” he said. I was so glad about that. It's the advantage of guiding him for me. I hope to see him progressing every Thursday music class.
