School is boring!
subjects do not mean anything to us,
teachers treat us as if we were kids /stupid / have nothing to say,
we feel like ants in a colony anonymous and unimportant.
A LACK OF MOTIVATION

Sensitisation to the language
structure one way
Question tags in English can be quitecomplicated. We use them to either get newinformation or to seek agreement. When we
seek new information, the voice intonation risesat the end, when we seek agreement the voicefalls. If the sentence is positive, the tag isnegative, and vice-versa. So, for example, Youlike bananas, dont you? has positive followedby negative, and uses the auxiliary do. If theverb is have, be or a modal, then the verb inthe tag is the same. All other verbs use do.
