I taught in all grades of the second grade. In retrospect, it is interesting to observe that although I was equally strict with everyone, each class perceived me more or less differently. While the eighth-graders rated me as too strict, I impressed the seventh-graders too mildly. I managed to get all but one of the ninth graders, while in the seventh grade, maybe only 4 were satisfied with me.
