A little bit? haha! I did the industrial revolution as well, it was so damned boring. I was nearly tearing my hair out by the end of it, I got an A on the test about it. No idea how, im sure it was a fluke!

Ah, but they tend to put the most boring things in school syllabuses. I mean, in physics we do energy transfers. How can ANYBODY possibly concentrate when getting an hours worth of information on energy transfers? We could be doing interesting stuff like parralell universes or whatever, but no. They want us all to fail. Its a conspiracy.

LOL....I HATED GCSE Physics with a fiery passion. Somehow I got an A in it though, must have taken it in subliminally when I was dozing through classes. |

A lot of kids love it, as do I obviously as I teach it. But it's the Industrial Revolution I hate teaching, it's very hard to get kids excited about crop rotation and spinning machines. |

I just dont have a logical brain. I'm no good at maths or chemistry or suchlike, but I am good at arts and creative subjects.

I have to agree on this one. I am totally useless at logic subjects like that, it kinda goes in one ear and out of the other. Im really good at things like history, english and drama though. I took art but I dont favour it that much. Like my teacher doesnt favour me, lol.
