Fortunately/Unfortunately

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, some inattentive students become attentive to a different subject!
“Not all of us can choose what we give up. The things we love are taken or are never ours at all. If we’re lucky, life is defined not by what we let go, but what we let in: friendship and kind words, frailty and hope.”

Fortunately, if they enjoy a particular subject, they may get better results on that particular examination!

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, all too often, the subjects inattentive students grow attentive to, have nothing whatever to do with the subjects on which they are to be tested.

Only too true!
Fortunately, student can be tutored in the subjects that they don't do so well in.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, tutoring students in subjects they have no aptitude for & even less interest in, can also turn out to be a waste of hard-earned money & a distressing learning curve for hopeful parents.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, uninterested and inept tutors are less likely to make their pupils' assignments too burdensome.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately if parents are paying tutors good money they want to see results as measured in improved exam outcomes, which can give their children a better start in life.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, spending good money on a tutor can at least improve the life of the tutor whether or not they deserve it.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the student being tutored is bored so that tutor will have their work cut out for them.
It is a good rule after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the student is distracted by their phone and doesn't yet notice the creativity.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, the cell phone runs out of battery so the student is forced to pay attention.

Unfortunately, the student remembered to bring a charger and is now distracted in plugging in the charger.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, the tutor brought food to hopefully grab the students attention.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately the organisations where the tutors were tutoring were less than impressed with increased electricity charges from students charging phones & heating up food.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, the tutor then brought fruit to reduce the electricity charges.
