Achieving A1 from D7 !!!

I am Randy, and I have a twin brother, Gordon, although he has the basic grasp of Chinese, he doesn't like to work hard. Despite having tuition for Chinese his results are always C's or D's. He even failed Chinese Language in SA1. He complained that the Comprehension Passage was difficult and he didn't understand a lot of the words. After realization, he has decided to work hard. Gordon started paying attention in class and in tuition, he even did the exercises in the workbook that were not taught. He also automatically wrote down all the HanYu PinYin for the tough words in the Chinese Textbook. Just before the SA2 exams, he even came for 2 more extra lessons to ensure that he remembers the good phrases,format and technique for Chinese news article review. Post-examination, Mr Kok sent an SMS asking him for his Chinese results and surprisingly, Gordon got an A1! Mr Kok was extremely surprised as he had only expected at most a B3 from Gordon. Chinese is a subject that requires a strong foundation to score well unlike Math or Science. Gordon unexpectedly managed to jump from D7 to A1, skipping 6 grades altogether! Such cases of this happening is extremely rare. Most of his students get a F9 for O Levels as the Chinese Essay they have written is usually out of point and the Comprehension passage wasn't done properly. Overall, the big jump in results can be attribuited to Mr Kok's analysis and teaching, students are able to find out their mistakes and correct them. They even became more versatile to changes, being able to adapt to whichever topic given to them, hence making them self-reliant during exams.
