Guys, Do any of ye have one of those female teachers who keep going on maternity leave?. My French teacher is going on Maternity leave at the end of this year again..This is the teacher I was supposed to have for the last 5 years, i've only had 2 years as she keeps going on leave. It's so frustrating and very annoying! >:(.. Especially as she's actually soooo good and nice!. It peeves me off to be honest!
.. I thought i'd manage a strong B and maybe even an A in My Exam but I doubt it very much now! . Any of ye that do French have any good ways of improving my French? All aspects like.. Thanks for any advice!

YES! In my school, two of the three HL English teachers are pregnant, and the other one is only a sub for one who is on maternity leave

Imagine, a woman wanting to have a family...! We have a teacher who in the past 6 years has not taught a full year. Out of the 60 (or so) teachers in my school 1 is a man. Yes, 1! Most are young (under 45) and so every September it's who's pregnant, married or engaged!0 -

1? :O, there's a good few male teachers in my school I have to say: All DCG, Technology, Physics, History departments are Male!. I can understand that she wants to have a family, this does not bother me in the slightest. What bothers me is why the school keeps giving her Higher Level Classes if they realise she's like a rabbit with kids!LilMissCiara wrote: »Imagine, a woman wanting to have a family...!

fecking ridiculous if you ask me, and totally unfair on the students who get use to one teaching style and suddenly whoopsy, learn like this whether you like it or not! ..
Come to think of it, do many of ye have Any Male Foreign Language Teachers? (French, German, Spanish, Italian etc.) I don't know any in any of the 5 nearby schools!0 -

I'm a total lurk who isn't even in 5th year but managed to come across this, just gonna say two words. Michel Thomas. Google him, he's the reason for my newfound success in French, in such a short time. Yes it starts out as very very basic, but it actually helps so much with remembering all sorts of rules and exceptions and everything, trust me, I have an absolutely crap teacher so I have to do my best. He does an advanced course too, which I haven't got around to yet, but it's probably even better. If you wanna PM me I could send you a link which would...err...ease the burden of acquiring it. Indeed.0 -

All the foreign language teachers in my school are female too! But there is a couple of male Irish teachers.So........, did anybody study?
I actually did! A little bit... But i'll definitely do some more this week! What is everyone hoping for in the summer exams? 0 -

This drives me insane! I have a few teachers who have been in 2 of the 5 years I've been in the school. Right now theres around ten who are either on maternity or pregnant. Its so unfair when they're given to higher LC classes.0 -

I'm hoping to get an A in English this time because I think I've really improved. Hopefully an A1 in French and if I can maintain A2s in everything else and a B1 in maths I'll be happy enough. Going to have to do massive quantities of work from here on in to get there though 0

Ya that's what my teacher is doing too. They are such a pain though 0 -
