If your are a teacher, are your sure that the student with good greads will be successful person in the future.And are you sure that slow student will be also slow in his whole life.I’m not sure about it.Absolutely not.I had a student in all the teacher’s agreed that he was absolutely slowest student we have ever had.He sopkes slowly, moves slowly and row slowly. We suspected that he thought slowly, but he could proud add the type of daughter to his name in six years.So I believe one sentence forever-If at first you don’t succeed it try and try again.Yes, I’m sure about this.You may also remember this.
